It always breaks somewhere inconvenient
A jungle trail in Brazil, miles from anywhere, and the strap pulls straight through the sole. One foot bare, thorns and mud ahead, and nothing in the bag that can fix it. That walk is the reason this kit exists.
See it done
The whole repair, start to finish. Most take under five minutes, and it is meant to be doable with wet hands in bad light.
In the capsule
- Waterproof aluminium capsule on a keyring
- Precision screwdriver bit
- Two stainless steel screws
- A needle for threading the strap back through
- A plastic reinforcement inlay
Small enough to forget about until the moment it matters. 15 EUR including VAT and shipping to Germany and Austria. Anywhere else, email me and I will work out the postage.
The story
It happened on a jungle walk in Brazil. The strap gave out, and I stood there with one foot bare, a long way from anything resembling a shop. You do not think much about your footwear until it fails somewhere it really matters.
Afterwards I got slightly obsessed with the idea of a repair kit small enough to carry everywhere, tough enough for more than one repair, and simple enough to use badly, in bad light, with wet hands.
This is what came out of that. It is a small thing, but it means a broken flip flop is an interruption of five minutes rather than the end of the walk.
What people say
Finally! No more ruined beach days. This little kit saved my vacation twice already.

As a backpacker, this is essential gear. Compact, reliable, and has saved me more than once.
Jake R., World Traveler
I was skeptical about the price, but after using it, I'd pay double. Quality engineering.

Questions
That's almost the price of new pair! Isn't that a little expensive?
Think about it this way - will you have a new pair available the exact moment your shoe breaks in the middle of nowhere? This kit is your insurance policy. Plus, it's made in small batches with premium materials, designed to last a lifetime. The environmental benefit of repairing instead of replacing is priceless.
How many repairs does it last?
The kit comes with 2 screws total, and you can even re-use screws from previous repairs. The tool itself is built to last a lifetime - I've done hundreds of test repairs with the same tool. It's designed to handle more repairs than flip flops you'll ever own.
Will it work on all flip flop brands?
It's specifically designed for Havaianas-style flip flops, but the repair method works on most rubber flip flops with similar strap designs. The kit includes different sized components to handle various strap thicknesses.
How difficult is it to use?
It's designed to be simple enough to use with muddy hands in challenging conditions. The video above shows the complete repair process - most people complete a repair in under 5 minutes.
What about shipping outside Germany/Austria?
