The best stuff is called Barge cement. It's alike pliobond, but a lot better
on leather. It is what shoe makers use to attach soles.


It's also pretty similar to rubber cement, used in the "contact cement"
mode (apply, dry, and stick.) At least 20 year old memories say so.

Either of those is pretty easy to find and might work well enough if you
are not going with metal lacing (which is what I prefer, since it can be
undone.) You may also want to actually lace (the leather version from
which the metal version takes it's name) the joint as well.
