FAQs
Can I wash the Birkenstock Zermatt slippers in a washing machine?
No, you should never put these slippers in a washing machine, as the high heat and water can ruin the cork footbed and shrink the wool upper.
Are these slippers suitable for people with high arches?
Yes, the anatomical cork-latex footbed is designed specifically to provide support for various arch types, including high arches.
Can I wear these slippers outside?
These are intended primarily for indoor use. While the latex sole is durable, it is not designed to withstand the wear and tear of pavement or rough outdoor surfaces.
Are the footbeds replaceable?
Yes, the Zermatt series features a removable footbed, allowing you to replace the interior liner if it wears out over time.
Do these slippers fit true to size?
They generally fit true to the standard Birkenstock size, but it is recommended to consult a size guide if you are between sizes.
Troubleshooting
The cork footbed feels hard or uncomfortable at first.
This is normal for new Birkenstocks. Wear them for short periods initially to allow the cork to warm up and gradually mold to your foot shape.
The wool upper has picked up lint or dust.
Use a specialized garment lint roller or a soft clothing brush to gently lift debris from the fibers.
The footbed feels slightly damp.
Remove the footbed from the slipper to allow both parts to air out properly, as wool can absorb natural foot moisture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Upon receiving your slippers, ensure you try them on while wearing the type of socks you intend to use most often to verify the fit. To maintain the condition of your Birkenstock Zermatt slippers, keep them dry at all times. If the wool becomes dusty, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove debris. If the removable footbed requires cleaning, take it out of the slipper and wipe it down with a damp cloth, allowing it to air dry completely away from direct heat sources like radiators. Never machine wash or tumble dry your slippers as this will damage the natural wool and cork components.
