FAQs
How long is the break-in period?
It varies by person, but typically takes about one to two weeks of consistent, short-duration wear.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is best to avoid heavy rain as prolonged exposure to water can damage the cork and leather components.
How should I clean the footbed?
Use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soapy water to gently scrub the surface and let them air dry away from heat.
Are these suitable for people with flat feet?
Many users with flat feet find the orthopedic arch support highly beneficial, but consult a podiatrist if you have specific medical requirements.
How do I store my Birkenstocks?
Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the cork from drying out or cracking.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels too hard during first wear
This is normal; wear them for short periods at home to allow the cork-latex to gradually soften and mold to your feet.
Straps feel uncomfortable
Adjust the metal buckles to loosen the fit slightly, ensuring there is enough room for natural foot expansion throughout the day.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your sandals last, proper care is essential. When first trying them on, use the adjustable buckles to ensure the straps sit snugly across your instep without being overly tight. For maintenance, keep the sandals away from extreme heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight for extended periods, as this can dry out the cork. If the footbed becomes dirty, wipe it gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the cork in water; if they get wet, allow them to air dry naturally in a cool, ventilated area.
