FAQs
Are these sandals waterproof?
No, the Solana Leve features a leather upper which should be kept away from excessive water to prevent staining or material degradation.
Can I wear these with socks?
Yes, the open-heel design makes them a popular choice for wearing with casual socks during cooler weather.
How do I know if the fit is correct?
Your heel should rest comfortably in the heel cup, and your toes should not touch the front edge of the shoe when standing.
Is the footbed removable?
No, the anatomical footbed is a permanent, integrated component of the sandal's construction.
How long will the EVA sole last?
With standard daily wear, the EVA sole is highly resilient, though the lifespan depends on the surface and frequency of use.
Troubleshooting
Strap feels too tight or loose
Adjust the metal buckle to a different hole setting to increase or decrease the tension across the top of the foot.
Footbed feels hard during first use
This is normal for new Birkenstock leather sandals. Continue wearing them for short periods to allow the cork and leather to mold to your foot shape.
Leather looks dull
Use a high-quality leather conditioner appropriate for natural leather to restore moisture and maintain the beige finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Solana Leve clogs:
- Fitting: When you first put them on, ensure your heel sits deeply in the heel cup. Use the strap to lock the foot in place, but leave enough room for your toes to move freely.
- Breaking In: Wear them for short intervals (1-2 hours) initially to allow the leather to soften without causing irritation.
- Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper with a soft, dry cloth. For tougher dirt, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap, avoiding complete saturation.
- Storage: Keep away from extreme heat sources like radiators, as high heat can warp the footbed and dry out the leather.
- Maintenance: Periodically check the buckle to ensure it remains clean and free of debris for consistent adjustability.
