Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
The Birkenstock Arizona requires no assembly. Upon receiving them, simply adjust the pin buckles on the straps to achieve your desired fit. It is recommended to wear them for short periods initially to allow the cork footbed to begin molding to your foot shape.
Compatibility:
These sandals are designed for adult female wearers. The narrow fit is specifically intended for feet that are not wide. While versatile for many casual outfits, they are not suitable for formal occasions or strenuous athletic activities.
Care:
- Leather: Clean with a soft, damp cloth. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or excessive moisture.
- Cork Footbed: Wipe clean with a damp cloth. To protect the cork, apply Birkenstock's Cork Sealer periodically, especially in dry climates or after prolonged use.
- Soles: Clean with a damp cloth. Check for wear and tear, and consider professional resoling when the original sole becomes significantly worn.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat to prevent the cork from drying out or the leather from cracking.
