Finally someone who shows that you can condition suede as long as you brush after etc.
The especially frustrating thing is pretty much all the conditioners, including the Leather Milk Weston used, say explicitly not to use on suede or nubuck. I think it's only because the conditioner company assumes you don't know what you're doing, and it's hard to tell if a conditioner says not to use on suede because it'll change it, or because they don't trust you.
@@franminanicollier9431 the main reason is that those conditioners will unnap or remove the nappy nature of suede if users do not brush after, which a lot of consumers do not. I got "suede conditioner spray" which is just mick oil in a can lmao. Honestly disappointing since I already had bick 4
@@CybertroninfiniteOfficial So I still can use leather conditioner on suede as long as I brush it again, right?
I have been looking for this exact tutorial. So glad you made one. No one has a video on the Boston style specifically either
would love to see one of these on oiled leather as well
Super helpful video, thank you!
great video kings thank you so much .
Great video reminded me to get tending my Birkenstocks, was taught by a lovely German lady to use cork sealant like Collonil for the sole sides. Also said to size by having a fingers space at the heal as she said a lot of people size to small which leads to the heal break up. On open toe you leave space at the front so your foot isn’t snug but moves within the footbed. The cleaning the the footbed and restoring the nap was something it took me times to realise leading to cracking on the footbed. Birkenstock used to do cleaning kits and cork sealant with conditioner like the stuff I use. Mines actually cracked after being left at home for weeks unused when I went on holiday
95% of these tech transplant workers in Seattle who think they are 'being cool locals' by wearing birkenstocks have an entire size too small for their feet because despite making 200K plus at 20/30 years old, they still cannot think for themselves and have zero clue about basic physics/engineering as it would apply to the ergonomic function of birkenstocks with having the extra heal space.
Great video, great voice-over!
Wonderful tuck! 🤎🤍🤎🤍🤎🤍🤎🤍🤎🤍🤎🤍🤎🤍🖤 I'd love to see a tutorial on how to clean/repair leather flip flops. Like if the toe strap came out of the sole or delaminated. Or even a tutorial on how to "upgrade" your crappy $15 ones or something would be fun too
Watching this video after wearing my brand new bircks for a few hours and spilling hot chocolate on them 😭
Vid was fantastic! Pros 🙏🏾
Surprised to know that Bick 4 is good for suede! Thanks for this info
I use saddle soap on everything except exotics then some oil rubbing and a brushing
Weston! This was so informative. I got a pair of Nicks boots full rough-out leather and couldn’t find a single reliable video on how to clean them properly. Everyone says “don’t use saddle soap don’t use saddle soap” any way you could make a video explaining WHY not to use saddle soap? Then show a proper method for cleaning rough-out leather. Is it the same process as suede? Thanks for the awesome videos!
good to know about Bicks. I have some Bicks 4 and I have plenty of suede shoes. I've always been afraid to use it on suede but I just used it after watching this vid and sure enough after it dried and I brushed it the suede looked fine.
Those things came out pretty good. Would you recommend this similar method on rough-out leather? I have some Allen Edmonds loafers that are in a tan rough-out. I cleaned them with the saphir suede shampoo. But was not sure about best way to conditioned. Don’t want to darken them too Much.
I just accidentally put my swim bag on top of my brand new oiled leather Birkenstocks. They are tobacco color and now on one side has 3grey spots. I don’t know if it’s just water spot or if any sunscreen lotion got on them. I took a damp towel and rubbed. Made the spots bigger. Hopefully they dry the normal color and not with water spot ring or the gray spots they currently have! I just bought them only had a week and were $150!!!
Any tips for the oiled leather finish Birks? Keeping the smooth matte finish looking nice.
damn they look nice so torn between these and the oiled leather ones
WOW!
For cleaning my oiled leather Birkenstock Arizonas, it seems like I could follow the same process, but probably just a soft toothbrush to clean it and skip the brass bristle brush step. Is that correct? Do I condition the same way? Do you think you could create another video about cleaning oiled leather Arizonas?
Been looking into getting a pair of these Birkenstock Clogs and can’t decide on sizing. I noticed in the on feet towards the end of the video you have some space between the end of the clog and your heel. Would you recommend they fit like that as opposed to having your heel fall right up against the back of the clog?
Would you recommend to do this on the newer suede style that looks like corduroy?
*_Wait if this is build channel could you do videos on what a first time ahould buy at there local Hobby Lobby to get started. Like when to use a Awl or chisel fork kinda stuff._*
Question: the referenced leather condition says specifically to avoid with suede and suede like materials?
Do you use shoe goo on the cork instead of cork renew?
Do you need to rinse them under water after the second (gentle) clean or only after the first clean with the Dawn?
Out of curiosity, what size are those birks? 43?
damn those are kleen
is there a sizing guide or is it true to size?
I use a stiff brush attachment on vacuum.
What are your thoughts on the soft sole Birkenstocks? Apparently they’re the same as the regular ones just with a little bit of foam on top of the cork midsole to make them more squishy. Wouldn’t you argue that this might be more comfortable at first but worse later on since foam doesn’t keep that shape of your foot as good as just a cork midsole?
i've tried those on in the store, a few times, & my overall take is they've ruined the whole shoe. it's almost like: why bother with the cork? the cork fits right away & supports your foot perfectly. that gel layer they put between the lining & the footbed feels like it needs to be broken in & flat & clumsy. personally, i'm sticking with the originals -- if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
i almost feel like birkenstocks is trying to cut back on the amount of cork, so they're trying to compensate by adding the gel layer. too gimmicky.
I own both, the Soft Foot Bed does provide some squish but it stinks like foam and lengthens the break in process because you are smashing down the foam first. The classic footbed just smells like leather and immediately starts to conform to your feet. To me, the EVA outsole provides enough shock absorption.
Yeah I wouldn't go with the foam ones, Birkenstock is known for their cork so why go away from that. Also personally, I find the spongy foam can cause you to walk improperly and gives you a higher chance of rolling your ankle, my adidas are like that.
I have a tough time finding the right kind of conditioner. Put the wrong kind on my Thursday rugged and resilient: now they don’t have that same texture. I have another pair of crazy horse leather and the brand recommends a “natural” conditioning balm…would the 2 you recommend work?
bicks 4 works great on all leathers. it does a great job of conditioning and it doesn't darken the leather.
I wish I had seen this before I threw out my old Birkenstocks.
Did you still eat the steak?
Asking the real questions. Came here to ask this same question.
He grew up in Northern Utah, of course he did!
😹😹😹😹😹@@UtahSustainGardening
I enjoyed that live commentary. Prefer it over ASMR style videos
wow. what a difference. thanks for the education! 😻
i hope toastie got some of that steak. 😹
lol forgor abot tostie.
Time to do a vid on the cleaning and care for those ND1s yet? I'm not sure how/if to condition waxed flesh....
I wonder if I could do the same conditioner process for my Timbs
Absolutely would love to see a similar video for Timbs! I use the nubuck cleaning kit that Timberland sells but I've always wondered if I could use some conditioner on them as I've never conditioned them.
Yes you can. You can use this method on any sued or nubuck
So, NO RINSE of the FOOTBED after using Omnidiam?
Can someone tell me if this works and is a good tutorial bc my friends bircks have water stains and her grandpa (who is now dead) gave them to her. It wasn’t her who got them dirty but she was literally having a panic attack over it
How to get a water spot out of daughters brand new bostons?
I tried this. I think the oil and the water set into the suede. Now I have a huge stain 😭 idk if it’s because it’s still wet? Or ultimately ruined
Doesn't Birkenstock make a 'fake leather' shell. I think that is what I have. How do you clean those uppers? I have already replaced the heel and toe surfaces of cork using Birkenstock's recommended glue. Just PVA with their name on it.
Yes, they do. It's called Birko-Flor. It's their vegan-friendly alternative.
I seem to be having trouble getting the soap out? I didn't put a ton...
Can I use this method on my White's rough-out leather...? I don't want to ruin them...
Yes, I use this method on roughout moccasins I wear around the house and cooking outside. Another method is mix the bick 4 with some water to thin it, then mix well and apply with a spray bottle. After a good brushing both methods work out great. Stick with the less heavy conditioners though. Anything with wax won't work as well
One of my friends just put his pair in the washer😭

Can't wait for you to get some EKN Liana on the channel.
How are birkenstocks sized compared to redwings?
Birkenstocks are actually true to size. I wear a 12 in Red Wings and wear a 44 in Birks (about a US 11). Measure your foot on a piece of paper like they detail on their sizing guide and buy that size unless you like them floppy then go one size up.
However, I would HIGHLY recommend you try them on in person cause it's all about how they hit your toes and arch. They are very contoured, it's not just a flat slab of foam like other shoes.
@@jdlackey88 Thanks!
A little heavy?
Wait this is nubuck? I thought the leather was suede?
The leather is suede. The video just noted that you can similarly clean nubuck that way as well.
@@evumies did not pay attention apparently lol thanks for clarifying
@@LaymensLameMan No worries! I'd appreciate if you took a moment to check out my shoe cleaning channel! Thanks!
steak reveal?? the beef just wanted to get its skin back
Thanks for the audio commentary, it really added to the video. I really want to love this channel but I find it hard to watch. I’m one of those people with ‘anti’ ASMR, so the sounds and lingering shots are intolerable to me without something to distract my attention a little. Otherwise I have to watch most of the videos with sound off and skip through many parts, which is a shame as I am interested in the content. Weird, huh? But Dr Google tells me I am not the only one who is repelled by ASMR!
damn. why is everyone putting dish washer on their leather shoes?? is this an american thing? if you need a strong and degreasing cleaner use some natural curd soap and lukewarm water! absolutely no need to rub a bunch of chemicals in your leather ;)
They too big for you
You guys are a blassing to the boot/leather community
for the arizona model a video please
