The 16mm Shoe Nail Box Sole Fastener from Silver Cat brings extra shank length to tackle thick-soled footwear. At 16mm shank length with a 1.6mm steel shank, this nail is the cobbler’s choice for boots, wedge soles, and heavy-duty leather goods.
Benefits of the 16mm Shoe Nail Box Sole Fastener
Working with rubber lug soles or platform shoe assemblies demands a fastener that reaches deep enough to grip through the full sole thickness. The 16mm length hits the sweet spot for most adult work and casual footwear.

Each 16mm Shoe Nail Box Sole Fastener contains ~1370 nails. The lower count versus the 13mm reflects the greater material per nail at this length.
When to Use 16mm vs Shorter Nails
Choose 16mm for soles thicker than 12mm, for repairs where the sole has partially delaminated and needs additional mechanical fastening alongside adhesive, or for heavy-duty outdoor footwear that experiences high shear force.
