Birks Repair

Great job, they look like new. Should get a few more years out of them now.

Great Service

An excellent repair.

Knowledge of Birkenstocks is invaluable as highlighted with repairing not only the sole of the shoe however the straps as well.
Now look like new .

Thank you

Hi Colleen

Thanks so much for the wonderful feedback! We’re delighted to hear your Birks are looking like new again and that our knowledge came in handy for both the soles and straps. It’s always a joy to work on well-loved sandals and get them ready for many more adventures. Really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience—thank you!

Kind regards

Amazing!!

My two pairs of Birkenstocks feel completely revived! I have an atypical gait which makes my shoes wear out pretty bad and Shane made them look amazing. I had them back within a week of posting it to him which was incredible! Couldn’t be more satisfied.

Hi Aini

Thanks so much for the amazing review! We're rapt to hear your Birks are feeling revived and looking sharp again—it’s always a challenge (and a joy!) to bring well-worn pairs back to life, especially when they’ve been through a bit of extra wear. Super glad the turnaround time worked for you too. If your shoes ever need another round of TLC, we’ve got your back!

Kind regards

2nd Birk resole and counting.

A+ repair - Have been getting my birks and RM's resoled and repaired by Shane for a a few years now. His workmanship is top-notch, service and turnaround is second to none. Cheers for the good work Shane. Regards, Arup

Hi Arup Thanks a bunch for the kind words and for trusting us with your Birks and RMs over the years—it means a lot! I'm stoked to hear you're happy with the repairs and service. It's always a pleasure giving your well-loved footwear a new lease on life. Looking forward to seeing you again when it's time for resole number three.
Kind regards

Near New!

Excellent service, I was looking for new Birkenstocks as mine were pretty ruined after a lot of wear. I then came across Shane's and they managed to completely repair them to near new, keeping mine out of the land fill.

Born again!

We are very happy every day wearing our born again Birkenstock. Specially knowing the care you have taken to repair them for us. Thank you for taking the time to explaining things to me as well. I learn how to take care of the shoes by seeing the good results of your repairs.

Absolutely awesome!

Had 3 pairs of Birkenstocks and 1 pair of Doc Martens repaired/revitalised - they're absolutely awesome! Look brand new, feel great, and I'm stoked to keep them going.

Birkenstock Frequently Asked Questions

FAQs

Cracks in the cork is common. Shows more on the jandal models and less on the covered in type. Consider adding Cork Renew every 6mths to keep the cork from drying out and going brittle.

The cracks are often not as bad as they appear. With glue and cork filler they can generally be sorted very well.

Oil and grime from your feet. Cleans up with shoe shampoo or sandpaper. Worst case you can reline with new suede.
