FAQs
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The Birkenstock London Oiled Leather is specifically a narrow fit and may not be ideal for individuals with wide feet. Consider trying them on first or exploring other Birkenstock models designed for a wider fit.
How should I clean the oiled leather?
Use a soft cloth and a leather cleaner specifically formulated for oiled leather. Avoid excessive water and harsh chemicals. Allow to air dry away from heat.
What is the footbed made of?
The footbed is made from a blend of cork and latex, designed to be anatomical and provide excellent support and comfort.
Can I wear these in wet weather?
It is not recommended to wear oiled leather shoes in wet conditions, as water can damage the leather's finish and structure. They are best suited for dry weather.
How long does the break-in period typically last?
The break-in period can vary for each individual, but generally, it takes a few days to a couple of weeks of consistent, moderate wear for the footbed to fully mold to your foot.
What is the sole made of?
The sole is constructed from 100% E.V.A. (ethylene-vinyl acetate), a lightweight and flexible material that provides cushioning.
Does the strap offer significant adjustability?
Yes, the top strap is adjustable via the buckle, allowing you to fine-tune the fit across the instep for enhanced security and comfort.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Ensure the top strap is properly adjusted. The cork footbed may require a break-in period; wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time.
Leather appears dry or scuffed
Apply a leather conditioner or balm specifically designed for oiled leather. Buff gently after application.
Sole feels stiff
The E.V.A. sole is designed for flexibility; prolonged wear will naturally allow it to conform more to your foot's movement.
Buckle is difficult to adjust
Ensure the strap is not overly strained. Gently manipulate the buckle to ease adjustment.
