FAQs

Are these sandals waterproof?

No, the suede upper is sensitive to water and should be kept dry to prevent staining or damage to the material.

Can I replace the footbed?

Birkenstock footbeds are designed for durability, but they are generally not removable or replaceable by the user.

How should I clean the suede?

Use a dry suede brush to remove surface dust. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated suede shampoo or cleaner specifically designed for natural leather.

Does the sizing run true to size?

Birkenstocks generally follow standard UK sizing; however, the adjustable strap allows for slight variations in foot volume.

Is the Oita suitable for wide feet?

The Oita features a slimmer silhouette than some other models, but the adjustable strap provides flexibility for different foot widths.

Troubleshooting

The cork footbed feels too stiff during initial wear.

This is normal. Wear the sandals for 1-2 hours a day at home to allow the cork to warm and mold to your foot shape.

The suede upper has light water spots.

Use a specialized suede eraser or a soft brush once the material is completely dry to gently buff out the surface marks.

The sandal feels loose while walking.

Adjust the side fastening strap to a tighter notch to secure the foot more firmly against the footbed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Oita sandals, follow these essential maintenance guidelines. Since the upper is made of premium suede, it is highly recommended to apply a suede-specific protective spray before your first wear to repel dirt and moisture. If the suede becomes dirty, use a soft suede brush to gently lift debris. Avoid exposing the cork-and-rubber sole to extreme heat or prolonged submersion in water, as this can degrade the natural adhesives. To break them in, wear them for short periods around the house before taking them on long walks to allow the footbed to adapt to your gait.
