FAQs
Are these suitable for people with flat feet?
Yes, the Birkenstock cork-latex footbed is specifically designed to provide anatomical arch support which can be beneficial for various foot types.
Can I get the suede wet?
Suede is generally sensitive to moisture. While occasional light exposure is fine, it is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or deep puddles to maintain the integrity of the material.
Do I need to wear socks with these?
The choice is yours; the interior is designed for comfortable skin contact, but many users prefer socks for added warmth or personal preference.
Can the straps be repaired if they break?
Birkenstock components are high quality, but for significant wear, contact an authorized repair shop that specializes in shoe refurbishment.
How should the shoe fit?
Your heel should rest comfortably in the heel cup, and your toes should not touch the front edge when standing.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels too hard or uncomfortable initially
This is common for new Birkenstocks. Wear them for short intervals (1-2 hours) over the first week to allow the cork to mold to your foot shape.
Suede looks matted or dull
Use a suede brush in a circular motion to lift the nap of the material and restore the soft texture.
Buckles feel tight or restrictive
Adjust the strap tension while sitting down, ensuring the shoe feels secure but does not pinch the skin.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: When first wearing your Tokio II, use the adjustable straps to secure the shoe comfortably against your foot. You should be able to wiggle your toes freely. If the footbed feels firm initially, this is normal; the cork will gradually soften and adapt to your unique footprint.
Compatibility: These clogs generally fit true to size. If you plan on wearing thick socks, you may want to ensure the straps are loosened during initial fitting to accommodate the extra volume.
Care:
- Suede Maintenance: Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently remove surface dust and dirt.
- Stain Prevention: Consider using a specialized suede-safe water repellent spray to protect against light moisture.
- Storage: Keep away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can dry out the cork footbed and cause it to crack.
- Cleaning: If the footbed becomes soiled, wipe with a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry naturally.
