How to Clean Suede Birkenstocks with Reshoevn8r’s Essential Kit
If you’ve been living in your Birkenstock Bostons lately, you’re not alone. But even the best everyday footwear needs a reset.
In this episode of Shoe Care Academy, Rob takes on a pair of Bostons worn daily for 30 straight days — and stained with a Tide Pod spill.
From beach walks to office shifts, these clogs went through it all. The real challenge will be restoring the suede without ruining it. With help from the Essential Shoe Cleaning Kit, Rob breaks down exactly how to bring them back to life.
Products Used in This Cleaning:
Step 1: Dry Brush with Soft Bristle Brush
Rob starts by dry brushing with the Soft Bristle Brush, removing loose dirt without using any water. This preps the suede and keeps the nap intact.
Step 2: Deep Clean with Essential Kit Solution
Next, he dips the Soft Brush into our cleaning solution and works it across the upper. The brush is soft enough to protect the suede while lifting dirt from the surface.
Step 3: Tackle Stains with the Medium Brush
For the Tide Pod spill, Rob switches to the Medium Bristle Brush. It delivers more agitation without going too hard on the material. Gentle pressure is key here.
Step 4: Scrub the Outsole with the Stiff Brush
Once the upper is clean, Rob uses the Stiff Bristle Brush on the cork midsole and outsole to remove embedded grime.
Step 5: Reset the Nap with the Dry Suede Kit
Once dry, Rob grabs the Dry Suede Kit and Brass Bristle Brush to restore the texture of the suede. This step brings back that smooth, natural look Birkenstock fans expect.
Step 6: Protect with Water + Stain Repellent
To seal the deal, Rob finishes with Water + Stain Repellent. One layer adds months of protection and peace of mind.
