FAQs
Are these clogs waterproof?
No, the suede upper is not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or deep puddles to protect the materials.
How should I clean the suede?
Use a dry suede brush to brush away debris. For stubborn marks, a suede eraser can be used sparingly.
Is the footbed removable?
No, the anatomically shaped cork-latex footbed is integrated into the structure of the shoe.
How do I break them in?
Wear them for short periods at home initially. The heat from your feet will help the cork soften and mold to your foot shape.
Can these be worn with socks?
Yes, the Boston clog is frequently worn with socks, especially in cooler weather, making it a highly versatile piece of footwear.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels hard during the first few days
The cork-latex footbed is designed to mold to your foot over time; wear the clogs in short intervals until the material adapts.
Suede appears dull or dirty
Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove dirt. Avoid using water or liquid cleaners.
Buckle feels loose
Adjust the strap through the metal buckle to tighten or loosen the fit according to your foot volume.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Birkenstock Boston clogs last for years, proper care is essential. Upon first wear, utilize the adjustable metal buckle to secure the fit comfortably against your instep; it should feel snug but not restrictive. To maintain the blue suede, use a soft suede brush to remove surface dust regularly. Avoid getting the shoes soaked in water, as excessive moisture can degrade the cork footbed and the suede texture. If the footwear gets wet, allow them to air dry slowly at room temperature away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can cause the cork to crack.
