FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The Boston EVA has a regular fit and a standard width insole. The adjustable buckle allows for some customization, but individuals with very wide feet might find them snug.
Can I wear these in water?
Yes, the EVA material is water-resistant and quick-drying, making them suitable for use around pools, beaches, or in wet conditions.
Do they have the same arch support as traditional Birkenstocks?
While the EVA provides cushioning, it typically offers less pronounced arch support and footbed contouring compared to Birkenstock's signature cork footbeds.
How do I clean my Boston EVA sandals?
Wipe them clean with a damp cloth. For more stubborn dirt, use mild soap and water and allow them to air dry.
What is the difference between EVA and cork Birkenstocks?
EVA is a lightweight, flexible, and water-resistant foam. Traditional Birkenstocks feature a cork-latex footbed known for its moldability and shock-absorbing qualities, offering distinct support characteristics.
Can I wear these with socks?
Yes, the mule design and adjustable strap allow for comfortable wear with socks, especially in cooler weather.
What is the intended use for these sandals?
They are primarily intended for casual wear, travel, and activities where water resistance and lightweight comfort are beneficial, such as post-exercise recovery or poolside lounging.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel too tight or too loose
Adjust the top buckle strap to achieve a more secure or relaxed fit. Ensure your foot is positioned correctly within the sandal.
Sandals make noise when walking
This can sometimes occur with new EVA materials. Ensure the sandal is clean and dry. Minor noises may dissipate with wear.
Material feels stiff
EVA foam can feel firmer initially than traditional cork. Wear them for short periods to break them in. The material will adapt slightly to your foot shape over time.
Discoloration after exposure to sun
Prolonged direct sunlight can affect EVA. Store them away from direct sun when not in use and clean gently if discoloration occurs.
