Care for your barefoot shoes made from vegan material
Our ZAQQ barefoot shoes made from vegan material are super easy to care for and, depending on the material, look almost indistinguishable from leather shoes. With our ZAQQs made from Oeko-Tex 100 fabric, everyone has so far believed that they are suede leather.
The advantages of vegan materials are obvious. They don't need to be cared for as intensively as real leather, and no animals had to be used for the production of the materials. The functional properties are at least as good, if not better, than real leather. All good reasons to take a closer look at our vegan shoes!
Here we give you useful tips for cleaning and caring for your vegan barefoot shoes.

In this care guide, we are only focusing on our vegan shoes made from synthetic material. Of course, our cotton knit shoes are also vegan. You can find the care instructions for them under “Care of Your Textile Barefoot Shoes”.
We have a large selection of vegan barefoot shoes. Just get an overview here.
Cleaning vegan material
If your vegan barefoot shoes are only slightly dirty, you can easily remove the dust with a dry cloth. For stubborn dirt that cannot be removed dry, you can use a damp cloth. Avoid applying too much pressure when cleaning. It is gentler to gently wipe over the dirty areas several times. If the dirt cannot be removed this way, we recommend this gentle cleaning gel or this cleaning foam, which is very effective.
Impregnating vegan material
It is often claimed that vegan material does not need to be impregnated. That is not correct, because even vegan shoes have seams through which water can penetrate. By impregnating, you form a protective film on your shoes that not only repels water but also protects your ZAQQs from dirt. Only through regular impregnation will you enjoy your barefoot shoes for a long time.
Be sure to use an impregnation spray without fat for your vegan synthetic shoes. We recommend the CARBON LAB Protecting Spray from Collonil.
The spray is applied evenly from a distance of about 30 cm. After that, the impregnation agent must dry well. We recommend repeating this process several times to form an effective protective film on your ZAQQs.
