Suede Birkenstocks are super comfortable and stylish, but unfortunately also susceptible to water and stains. Do you want to protect your Birkenstocks and extend their lifespan? Then it is important to impregnate them with a special suede spray, such as the Piggy Proof Premium Protector.
Why should you impregnate suede Birkenstocks?
Suede has an open structure, which means moisture and dirt quickly leave stains. By making your Birkenstocks water-repellent, you prevent rings, discoloration, and wear. In addition, they stay beautiful and vibrant in color for longer.
