$35.00
$35.00

Product description

The Birkenstock Footbed & Shoe Protector is ideal to protect shoes against dirt and moisture. The highly effective, water-based waterproofing spray withstands all kinds of weather. This prevents the material from drying out and becoming brittle and maximises the longevity of the shoes.

Recommended for: Smooth leather, suede, nubuck leather and textiles.

Application: After cleaning, spray the Birkenstock Footbed & Shoe Protector evenly onto the upper material with a distance of approx. 20 to 30 cm. Do not soak the material. The spray may not spread evenly and may form droplets. Immediately spread these droplets evenly with the Birkenstock Application Brush or the Birkenstock Polishing Cloth and leave to dry. Depending on the type of leather, the fibres can be fluffed up or the leather can be polished with the Birkenstock Polishing Brush. Consult our care guide for more details.

The Birkenstock Original Footbed

Sustainable Materials

NATURAL CORK – A Renewable Raw Material

One of our most important raw materials is cork – A natural and sustainable product that boasts high elasticity, outstanding cushioning, and excellent heat and sound insulation. The cork layer is reproduced and can therefore be harvested again and again without harming the tree.

The cork is obtained from the bark layer of the cork oak. At least five centimeters of thick bark is stripped from the cork oak – a process that can only be repeated every seven to nine years. A single tree can provide 100 to 200 kilograms of cork during its lifetime.

LATEX – The Environmentally Friendly Adhesive

Natural latex serves as a primary binding agent in the production of the footbed. Like cork, natural latex is also a renewable resource. Natural latex is obtained from the resin of rubber trees.

This delicate natural material has a much better energy balance than synthetic latex, which is obtained from crude oil, and it's also free from pollutants such as solvents or CFCs. In addition, natural latex has beneficial natural properties, such as a high elasticity-point and superior breathability.

Repairing is Caring

  • Created With Repairs In Mind

    Created With Repairs In Mind

    Birkenstocks are carefully manufactured to allow for easy repairs over the life of the shoes.
    Most components are replaceable or repairable.
    Our workshop exclusively uses genuine Birkenstock repair materials.

  • The Maintenance Mindset

    The Maintenance Mindset

    Regular care and maintenance of your Birkenstocks helps keep your favourites on your feet for longer.

    Smaller, more regular repairs, such as re-soling and cork patching are recommended over the life of your shoes to extend their wear.

  • Gentle On Our Planet

    Gentle On Our Planet

    The more shoes we are able to repair, the more we keep from being discarded and ending up as landfill.

    We salvage parts and materials from anything that we can no longer repair, minimising waste at every part of our process.
