FAQs

Are these sandals waterproof?

No, the leather upper is not waterproof. Avoid heavy rain or submerging the shoes in water to protect the integrity of the material.

Can I replace the footbed?

The footbed is integrated into the design. If it wears down significantly after years of use, consult with a professional cobbler for potential refurbishment.

Are these suitable for people with wide feet?

Yes, the adjustable strap allows you to customize the fit, making them a good option for a variety of foot widths.

How do I know if the fit is correct?

Your heel should rest comfortably in the heel cup, and your toes should have enough room to move freely without hitting the front edge.

Can I wear these with socks?

Yes, the Solana Leve is well-suited for wearing with socks, which is a popular look and provides extra warmth during cooler weather.

What is the best way to store them?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the leather to fade or become brittle over time.

Troubleshooting

The leather feels stiff or uncomfortable initially.

This is common with new leather footwear; wear them for short durations indoors to allow the material to soften and adapt to your foot shape.

Foot is sliding around inside the sandal.

Adjust the strap to a tighter setting to ensure your heel remains seated in the deep heel cup.

The sole is picking up dirt or small pebbles.

Inspect the tread pattern periodically and use a dull tool or brush to gently clear debris to maintain consistent grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the most out of your Birkenstocks, ensure the strap is adjusted so that your heel sits securely within the heel cup without sliding out.

Care Instructions:

  • Avoid submerging the leather in water; if they get wet, air dry them slowly away from direct heat sources like radiators.
  • Use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt from the upper leather.
  • For stubborn stains, use a leather-specific cleaner and follow up with a leather conditioner to maintain the material's suppleness.
  • Periodically check the EVA sole for debris to ensure maximum traction and longevity.
