FAQs
What size is UK 11.5 equivalent to in EUR?
The EUR size corresponding to a UK 11.5 for these Birkenstock sneakers is typically EUR 46.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
Birkenstock footwear is generally known for its accommodating fit. However, the specific fit of the London model, especially this collaboration, might vary. It's recommended to check reviews or try them on if possible.
How do I break in my new Birkenstocks?
Wear them for a few hours at a time. The footbed will gradually soften and conform to the unique contours of your feet, providing personalized comfort.
Can I wear these in wet conditions?
While the shoes can handle light moisture, they are not waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or submerging them in water. Ensure they dry naturally if they get wet.
What is the main difference between these and standard Birkenstock London shoes?
The primary difference lies in the unique 'The Artist VL' design and the 'Taupe Splash' colorway resulting from the collaboration with Song For The Mute. The core comfort features of the Birkenstock footbed remain.
How should I store these shoes when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keeping them in their original box or a breathable shoe bag is recommended.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels too firm initially
This is common. Wear the shoes for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. The cork-latex footbed will mold to your foot's shape over time.
Straps or upper feel stiff
Ensure the straps are adjusted for a comfortable fit. For certain materials, gentle flexing might help. Avoid excessive force.
Color transfer on socks or feet
This can sometimes occur with dyed materials, especially when new and in humid conditions. Try wearing darker socks or ensure the shoes are fully dry before wearing.
Difficulty cleaning specific material on the upper
Identify the exact material of the upper and consult a specialist shoe care guide or product for that material. Use a dedicated cleaner and conditioner if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These are ready-to-wear footwear. Ensure you have selected the correct size for your foot.
Compatibility: Designed for adult wear. They are suitable for casual outfits and can be worn with or without socks, depending on personal preference and weather conditions.
Care:
- Cleaning the Footbed: Wipe the cork-latex footbed with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh cleaners or soaking, as this can damage the cork.
- Cleaning the Upper: Depending on the exact material of the 'Taupe Splash' upper (e.g., leather, suede, textile), use a specialized cleaner recommended for that material. For suede, a suede brush can help maintain texture.
- Drying: If the shoes get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
- Protection: Consider using a protective spray suitable for the upper material to guard against stains and moisture.
