FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, they generally fit according to standard UK sizing, though the adjustable buckle allows for minor variations in foot width.

Can I get these shoes wet?

It is recommended to avoid heavy water exposure as the leather and cork materials are not waterproof.

Do I need to treat the leather?

While not strictly required, using a high-quality leather conditioner can help maintain the suppleness of the upper over time.

What does SFB mean?

SFB stands for Soft Footbed, which features an additional foam insert for increased cushioning compared to the classic footbed.

Can I wear these with socks?

Yes, the Boston model is a popular choice for wearing with socks for a cozy, casual look.

Troubleshooting

The leather feels stiff initially.

Wear the sandals for short periods inside your home to allow the leather to soften and mold to your foot shape naturally.

Footbed feels slippery after long use.

Wipe the footbed with a slightly damp, clean cloth and allow it to air dry completely.

Buckle is difficult to adjust.

Ensure no grit or dirt is lodged in the buckle mechanism and gently slide the strap.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated and timeless design
  • Soft footbed offers enhanced cushioning
  • Durable leather construction
  • Adjustable fit via the buckle strap

Cons

  • Requires a break-in period for the leather
  • Not intended for heavy-duty outdoor or wet environments
  • Limited to casual wear applications

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Birkenstocks last, avoid direct heat sources like radiators, as these can warp the cork sole. If the leather upper gets wet, allow it to dry naturally at room temperature. For routine maintenance, use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and dirt from the surface. Because the fit is adjustable, you can tighten or loosen the strap depending on whether you are wearing the sandals with socks or barefoot. Check that the buckle remains free of debris to ensure smooth adjustments.
