Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Birkenstock Boston Shear Leve mules remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: When you first try them on, adjust the strap using the copper buckle so that the clog feels secure but not overly tight on the instep.
- Break-in Period: The cork footbed will gradually conform to your individual footprint. Wear them for short durations for the first few days to allow the material to adapt.
- Cleaning Suede: Use a dedicated suede brush to remove surface dust. Avoid getting the suede wet; if it does become soiled, use a dry sponge or specialized suede cleaner.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources, which could damage the shearling or cause the cork to dry out.
- Weather Protection: We recommend using a water-repellent spray specifically designed for suede to protect against minor moisture, though complete submersion should be avoided.
