Boston Clogs - Birkenstock - Suede - Grey

Try them on with the type of socks you typically wear. There should be a small gap between your longest toe and the edge of the footbed. The heel should feel snug but not tight, and your foot should not slip out when walking.

The suede upper is not waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture. While the EVA sole offers some protection, it's best to avoid wearing these clogs in heavy rain or snow.

This varies by individual wear habits, but most users find the footbed begins to conform noticeably within a few weeks of regular wear.

They can be suitable for casual work environments that allow comfortable, non-athletic footwear. Their supportive nature makes them a good choice for jobs involving extended standing.

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid storing them in plastic bags, as this can trap moisture. Keeping them in their original box or a breathable shoe bag is ideal.

Birkenstock offers replacement footbeds for many of their models, including the Boston. These can be purchased separately and fitted by a professional or carefully installed yourself.

The cork footbed is designed to mold to your foot over time. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. Walking indoors can help break them in more quickly.

Use a suede brush to restore the nap and remove surface dirt. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and follow the product instructions carefully. Avoid using water directly on the suede.

Ensure the metal buckle is properly fastened and adjusted to your foot's width. If the strap is too long or short for your liking, consider if a different size or model might be more suitable.

If the suede gets wet, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to revive the texture. For the cork footbed, wipe away excess water immediately.
