Full details

FAQs
Are these sandals waterproof?
No, the cork-latex footbed should not be submerged in water. While the EVA outsole is durable, moisture can compromise the adhesive and the cork structure.
How do I know if the size is right?
Your toes should have a small amount of space in the front and your heel should rest comfortably in the heel cup without overhanging the edge.
Can I replace the footbed?
Birkenstock footbeds are designed to last for years, but in many cases, authorized repair centers can resole or refurbish the sandals.
Will the white straps get dirty quickly?
Like any light-colored footwear, they are prone to showing dirt, but they can be spot-cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap.
Do I need to wear socks with these?
You can wear them either way; many users prefer going barefoot to utilize the texture of the microfiber insole, but wearing them with socks is common for a casual look.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels too hard during first wear
This is normal. Wear the sandals for 1-2 hours at a time inside the house until the cork-latex begins to soften and contour to your foot.
Buckle feels loose over time
Adjust the metal pin buckle to a tighter hole setting. If the hole has stretched, a leather repair shop can often punch a new, reinforced hole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Birkenstocks last for years, proper care is essential.
Setup: When first wearing the sandals, tighten the buckles so the straps sit comfortably against your skin without being restrictive. You should be able to slide a finger under the straps.
Compatibility: These sandals are true-to-size for a standard adult fit. If you have particularly wide or narrow feet, use the adjustable straps to find your optimal tension.
Care:
- Keep the cork sealed: If the cork edges appear dry or dull, apply a thin layer of cork sealant.
- Moisture control: Do not leave these in direct, extreme heat (like inside a hot car) as this can warp the cork.
- Surface cleaning: Use a slightly damp cloth to wipe the microfiber insole and straps. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners.
