FAQs
Are these sandals true to size?
Birkenstock sizes are generally consistent, but it is recommended to follow the UK sizing guide to ensure the best fit.
Can I get these sandals wet?
While the sole is durable, prolonged exposure to water can damage the cork-latex footbed; it is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or deep water.
How long do they take to break in?
The break-in period typically lasts a few days to two weeks of consistent, short-duration wear.
Are these suitable for people with flat feet?
The anatomically shaped footbed is designed to support the natural arches of the foot, which many users with flat feet find beneficial.
How do I clean the beige suede upper?
Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift dirt; avoid using water or standard soaps on the suede material.
Troubleshooting
The sandals feel stiff when first worn
This is normal for the cork-latex footbed; wear them for short intervals until the material softens and molds to your foot.
Footbed looks dark or discolored
Natural darkening of the cork footbed occurs with wear due to skin oils; ensure your feet are clean before wear to slow this process.
Buckles are rubbing against skin
Adjust the straps slightly tighter or looser to change the position of the buckle relative to your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your sandals provide the best experience, start by adjusting the buckles to match your foot's width; you should be able to slide a finger between the strap and your skin.
Care Instructions:
- Keep the cork-latex footbed dry to maintain its structural integrity.
- Clean the upper materials with a soft brush to remove dust or light debris.
- Wipe the EVA sole with a damp cloth if it becomes soiled.
- Avoid leaving your sandals in direct, extreme heat, as this can degrade the cork material over time.
