FAQs
How do I know if I have the right size?
The Birkenstock Arizona comes in a regular fit. Ensure there is a small space between your toes and the front edge, and your heel should sit comfortably within the heel cup. The adjustable straps allow for fine-tuning the fit.
Can I wear these sandals in water?
No, the suede upper and cork footbed are not designed for prolonged exposure to water. They are best suited for dry conditions. While light splashes might be manageable with proper care, submersion or heavy rain is not recommended.
How long does the cork footbed last?
The cork footbed is durable and designed to last for several years with proper care. Its lifespan depends on usage frequency, environmental conditions, and adherence to care instructions.
Can I wear these with socks?
While some people do wear sandals with socks, the Birkenstock Arizona is primarily designed to be worn barefoot to allow the suede footbed to conform to the foot. Wearing socks may alter the fit and the molding process of the footbed.
What is the difference between regular and narrow fit?
The Arizona model mentioned here is a regular fit, suitable for most foot types. Birkenstock also offers narrow fit versions, which have a narrower sole and footbed shape.
How do I clean the suede straps?
Use a specialized suede brush to remove dust and dry dirt. For tougher stains, a suede eraser can be used. It is advisable to treat the suede with a protector spray to help repel stains and moisture.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel stiff or uncomfortable initially
The cork footbed may require a break-in period. Wear the sandals for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration as the footbed molds to your foot.
Suede material getting wet
If the suede becomes wet, allow the sandals to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, use a suede brush to restore the texture. Consider using a suede protector spray for future wear.
Straps are difficult to adjust
Ensure the metal buckles are not obstructed. Gently push or pull the strap through the buckle to adjust. If they feel stuck, try wiggling them slightly.
Footbed appears discolored or dirty
Use a slightly damp cloth to gently wipe the footbed. Avoid harsh cleaning agents. Allow to air dry completely.
