FAQs

How do I clean my Birkenstock Shinjuku sandals?

Wipe the leather uppers with a damp cloth. Avoid getting the cork footbed wet. For tougher stains, use a mild leather cleaner.

Can I wear these sandals in the rain?

While the sandals can withstand some moisture, it's best to avoid prolonged exposure to rain, as excessive water can damage the cork footbed.

How long will the cork footbed last?

With proper care, the cork footbed can last for several years. Regular cleaning and sealing will extend its lifespan.

What if the buckles break?

Contact Birkenstock customer service or a shoe repair shop for replacement buckles.

Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?

Birkenstock offers different widths. Check the product details for the available widths to ensure a proper fit.

How do I break in my Birkenstock Shinjuku sandals?

Start by wearing them for short periods, gradually increasing the wear time as the footbed molds to your feet. This helps achieve the best comfort and support.

Troubleshooting

Straps feel too loose or tight.

Adjust the buckles on the straps to find the right fit. Ensure they are snug without being too tight.

Footbed feels uncomfortable initially.

Allow for a break-in period. The cork footbed will mold to your foot over time.

Sandals are getting wet.

Avoid prolonged exposure to water. If wet, let them air dry away from direct heat.
