Extended Product Information
FAQs
Are these sandals waterproof?
No, the Solana range is generally not designed to be submerged in water. Prolonged exposure to moisture can damage the cork and leather components.
How do I determine my correct size?
Birkenstock sizes are based on standard UK sizing. If you have worn the brand before, your typical size should be consistent with the Solana line.
Can I wear these for long walks?
While they are very comfortable, they are intended for casual wear. We recommend closed-toe footwear for long-distance walking or uneven terrain.
How should I clean the footbed?
Use a soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe down the surface. Avoid using harsh soaps or chemicals which can dry out the material.
Do these sandals come in different widths?
The Solana series generally follows standard Birkenstock fit profiles; check the specific product label for designation.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels stiff during initial wear
This is normal. Wear the sandals for an hour or two each day around the house to allow the materials to soften and conform to your foot.
Visible scuffs on the exterior
For leather or suede models, use a matching shoe polish or a suede eraser to buff out light scuffs gently.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These sandals do not require assembly. When you first receive your pair, wear them for short intervals indoors to allow the footbed to begin molding to your foot shape; this process ensures maximum long-term comfort. For sizing, Birkenstock footwear generally features a consistent fit, but ensure you select your correct UK size. To maintain the condition of your sandals, avoid submerging them in water. If the footbed becomes soiled, use a lightly dampened cloth to spot-clean the area. If you possess a suede variant, use a dedicated suede brush to lift dirt and maintain the nap of the material. Keep them away from extreme heat sources, such as radiators, which can warp the cork footbed.
