Sandal Repair

Sandals are indispensable for comfort and warm-weather style, but their open-structure design makes straps, buckles, and footbeds particularly vulnerable to wear from sweat, sun, and dirt.  Jovino LLC offers dedicated Sandal Repair and Refurbishment Services to keep your favorite summer, walking, and specialty sandals functional and looking fresh.

Specialized Sandal Care

Our technicians understand the differences between repairing a leather slide, a cork-soled comfort sandal, and a synthetic hiking sandal. We use materials and adhesives specifically chosen for flexibility, durability in heat, and resistance to moisture.

Our Sandal Repair Menu

We address the most common points of failure in all types of sandals:

1. Strap & Fastening Repair

• Strap Re-stitching & Replacement: Repairing or replacing torn, stretched, or broken leather, fabric, or synthetic straps to ensure a secure fit.

• Buckle & Velcro Repair: Replacing broken buckles, D-rings, eyelets, or worn-out Velcro closures that compromise the sandal’s fit.

• Riveting & Hardware: Repairing or replacing the metal rivets and tacks that secure straps to the sole or footbed.

2. Footbed & Insole Restoration

• Footbed Cleaning & Sanitization: Deep cleaning and sanitizing footbeds (especially cork, suede, or leather) to remove built-up oils and sweat, eliminating odors.

• Cork Repair: Sealing and patching cracked or crumbling cork footbeds (common in brands like Birkenstock) to restore their structural integrity and comfort.

• Lining Replacement: Replacing worn or peeling footbed linings for a fresh, hygienic feel.

3. Sole & Heel Work

• Sole Replacement (Half or Full): Replacing worn rubber or composite outsoles to restore traction and prevent damage to the footbed.

• Heel Repair: Replacing small heel caps or stabilizing wedge heels that have become wobbly or uneven.

• Sole Separation: Re-gluing the layers of the sole that have separated due to flexing and moisture exposure.

Don't let a broken strap or dirty footbed retire your favorite pair.
