FAQs

Are the Birkenstock Boston BS suitable for wide feet?

The Boston features an anatomically shaped footbed and an adjustable strap, which generally accommodates a range of foot widths. However, the fit can vary by individual.

How do I determine my correct size?

Refer to Birkenstock's sizing chart and measure your foot length. The Boston is known for having a roomy fit, so consider trying them on if possible.

Can I wear these in wet conditions?

While the EVA sole offers some protection, the suede upper is not water-resistant. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet environments to prevent damage.

How long does the footbed take to break in?

The break-in period can vary, but most users find the footbed conforms to their foot within a few days to a couple of weeks of moderate wear.

Is the suede real leather?

Yes, the upper is made from genuine suede leather, known for its soft texture and natural feel.

Can I replace the footbed?

Yes, Birkenstock footbeds are often replaceable, but it is recommended to use official Birkenstock replacement footbeds for the best fit and support.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or dirty

Brush the suede vigorously with a suede brush. For tougher stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow its instructions carefully.

Footbed feels uncomfortable initially

The cork-latex footbed is designed to mold to your foot over time. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time as they break in.

Buckle feels loose

Check if the buckle prong is correctly inserted into one of the buckle's holes. Ensure the strap is adjusted securely.

Slight odor from the footbed

This is normal for cork and can be reduced by airing them out in a dry place or using a deodorizing footbed spray.
