FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
No, the suede upper and cork footbed are not waterproof and should be kept away from excessive moisture.
Can I replace the footbed?
The footbed is integrated into the shoe's construction. For repairs, it is recommended to visit an authorized cobbler.
Do these run true to size?
Birkenstocks generally follow standard sizing, but it is recommended to ensure your heel is seated comfortably in the heel cup.
How do I clean the suede?
Use a damp cloth for light cleaning and ensure they air dry away from heat sources.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The adjustable straps allow for a degree of customization, though the width is standard for the Birkenstock brand.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels too stiff initially
This is normal for new Birkenstocks. Wear them for short intervals indoors to allow the cork to mold to your feet.
Surface dirt on suede
Use a soft suede brush or a dry, clean cloth to gently lift dirt from the nap of the suede.
Buckle feels loose
Adjust the strap to the desired tension setting and ensure the pin is firmly engaged in the strap hole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Proper care for your suede Birkenstocks is essential to maintain their look and longevity. Because these are made of delicate suede, avoid wearing them in heavy rain or deep puddles. To clean, gently wipe the surface with a clean, slightly damp cloth to remove dust or light surface dirt. Do not submerge the shoes in water or use harsh chemical cleaners, as this can damage the material and the cork structure. Always store them away from direct sunlight or heat sources, as extreme temperatures can cause the cork footbed to dry out and crack over time. If they become damp, allow them to air dry naturally in a cool, ventilated area.
