FAQs

Can I wear these in the rain?

It is not recommended. Suede is porous and can be damaged by water; the cork footbed should also stay dry to maintain its structural integrity.

Are these slippers or outdoor shoes?

The Boston is a versatile clog designed for both; the EVA sole is durable enough for outdoor use on most surfaces.

How do I know if the fit is correct?

Your heel should rest comfortably in the heel cup, and your toes should have enough room to move freely without hitting the front edge.

Does the animal print fade?

While high quality, like all suede materials, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause minor fading over several years.

Are these shoes vegan?

No, this model is made from genuine suede leather.

Can I replace the footbed?

The footbed is integrated into the shoe. While it is durable, it is not designed to be replaced by the user.

Troubleshooting

Footbed feels stiff when new

This is normal for genuine cork. Wear them for short periods indoors to allow the footbed to soften and conform to your foot.

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a dry suede brush to lift the fibers and remove surface dirt. Avoid using water or liquid cleaners.

Buckle feels loose

Adjust the metal pin buckle to a tighter hole setting to increase tension across the instep.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior anatomical arch support for all-day comfort
  • Soft suede conforms to the individual shape of the foot
  • Adjustable strap ensures a secure and personalized fit
  • Stylish and unique animal-print aesthetic
  • Versatile design suitable for indoor or outdoor wear

Cons

  • Suede material requires protection from moisture and stains
  • Cork-latex footbed takes time to break in for new users
  • Animal pattern may show wear or dirt differently than solid materials

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Birkenstock Boston clogs maintain their quality, follow these guidelines:

  1. Break-in Period: Wear them for short intervals initially to allow the cork to compress and mold to your specific foot profile.
  2. Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt. Avoid soaking the shoes, as moisture can damage the suede and the cork core.
  3. Storage: Keep away from direct heat sources like radiators, as extreme heat can cause the cork to dry out or crack.
  4. Protection: Apply a suede-safe water and stain repellent spray before first use to maintain the integrity of the animal print.
  5. Compatibility: These are unisex in style but sized for adults; ensure you consult the UK sizing conversion to guarantee the correct fit for your foot length.
