The "shoe" is the curved piece at the very bottom of the pipe. unblock downpipe no ladder
For blockages that resist the reverse flush—typically compacted organic matter that has cemented itself over seasons of neglect—a becomes your best friend. Most standard shop vacs come with attachments long enough to reach a first-story gutter from the ground, but even without that, they excel at the downpipe itself. First, attempt suction from the bottom. Remove the downpipe’s lower shoe or access cap. Seal the vacuum hose around the opening as best you can (a rag wrapped around the hose helps create a seal). Turn the vacuum on. The immense negative pressure will often pull the blockage downward, extracting it as a vile, sopping plug of decomposing leaves. If that fails, you can switch to blowing. Many wet-dry vacs have a blower port. Insert the hose into the bottom of the downpipe in blower mode. The forced air, moving at hurricane velocity, will shoot upward and blast the obstruction into the gutter, where it will be noisily expelled. Again, no ladder required—just a steady hand and a tolerance for the sound of wet filth being hurled through a metal tube. DIV Cleaning Service 3:54 Telescopic Gutter Cleaning Tools
While standing on the ground, tap the sides of the downpipe with your hand or a rubber mallet. If the blockage is loose debris (wet leaves), the vibration can help shake it loose so gravity takes over. Amazon
