FAQs

Do these sandals run true to size?

Customers often report that the Birkenstock Arizona Big Buckle sandals run large. It is generally recommended to consider sizing down, especially if you are between sizes.

What is Birko-Flor nubuck?

Birko-Flor nubuck is a durable, skin-friendly synthetic material used for the upper. It is designed to closely resemble the look and feel of genuine leather nubuck while being easy to clean and maintain.

How do I clean the cork footbed?

To clean the cork footbed, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking the footbed. For tougher dirt, a specialized cork cleaner can be used. Allow it to air dry completely.

Can I wear these sandals in wet conditions?

While the EVA sole offers some water resistance, the cork footbed and suede insole are not waterproof and can be damaged by prolonged exposure to moisture. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or submerging them in water.

What is the benefit of the anatomical footbed?

The anatomical footbed is designed with contours that support the natural shape of the foot, providing arch support, a deep heel cup, and a roomy toe box. This promotes better posture and reduces foot fatigue during extended wear.

Are these sandals suitable for all-day wear?

Yes, the supportive cork-latex footbed is designed for comfort and is well-suited for all-day wear, provided they fit correctly and have been broken in.

What does 'Made in Germany' signify for this product?

It signifies that the sandals are manufactured in Germany, adhering to Birkenstock's high standards of quality, craftsmanship, and material selection.

Troubleshooting

Sandals feel too large.

As this model tends to size large, consider ordering a half size or full size down from your usual size. If you are between sizes, size down. You can also adjust the straps for a more secure fit.

Footbed feels stiff initially.

The cork and latex footbed is designed to mold to your foot over time. Wear the sandals for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time to allow them to break in and conform to your unique foot shape.

Material feels different from leather.

The upper is made of Birko-Flor nubuck, a durable synthetic material designed to resemble leather. It offers similar aesthetics with added durability and ease of care. It is not genuine leather.

Straps are difficult to adjust.

Ensure the metal pin buckle is correctly aligned with one of the holes. Pull firmly to adjust. If a strap is particularly stiff, try adjusting it while wearing the sandal to use the foot's pressure to help.
