No, the suede upper and cork sole are not waterproof. They should be kept away from excessive moisture.

How do I clean the suede upper?

Use a suede brush for regular cleaning and a specialized suede cleaner for stains. Avoid washing with water.

Will the cork sole break?

The cork sole is durable but can become brittle if exposed to extreme heat or prolonged soaking. Handle with care in harsh conditions.

Do these sandals come in different widths?

How long does the cork footbed typically last?

With proper care, the cork footbed can last for many years, often outlasting the other components of the sandal as it molds to the wearer's foot.

Can I replace the footbed?

Yes, for many Birkenstock models, including the Arizona, replacement footbeds are available for purchase separately.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to restore the texture. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and test on an inconspicuous area first.

Cork sole feels dry or brittle

This can happen with prolonged exposure to heat. Apply a cork sealant or conditioner designed for footwear to help preserve the cork.

Sandals feel too tight or loose

Adjust the metal buckles on the straps to achieve a more secure or relaxed fit.

Discomfort during initial wear

Birkenstock cork footbeds often require a break-in period. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time as they conform to your foot.
