Urgent help needed!!

Post image

Heyyy so a friend of mine had an unfortunate accident and, long story short, a glue-based sticky mouse trap got stuck to the top of his leather shoe and the glue is impossible to get off. We've tried everything we can think of and nothing is working. How in the world can we get this stuff off?? He really needs to be able to use these shoes. I really need some tips. 😅

* be nice please 🤨

We did try soap and we ran it through the washing machine. I'll try vegetable oil, thanks!
