FAQs
Are these sandals waterproof?
While the sole is durable, these are not strictly waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy water or submerged conditions.
How should I clean the footbed?
Use a lightly dampened cloth to spot clean. Avoid saturating the material.
Will the leather soften over time?
Yes, high-quality Birkenstock materials are designed to break in and mold to the unique shape of your foot with regular use.
Can I wear these for long walks?
They are designed for daily use and casual walking, though they should be broken in before taking them on longer excursions.
Where should I store them when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources to preserve the material's integrity.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The adjustable strap provides flexibility, allowing you to accommodate different foot widths for a more comfortable fit.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort between toes from the toe post
The material typically softens with wear. Try wearing the sandals for shorter periods initially to allow the area to adjust.
Buckle feels loose or too tight
Adjust the strap using the buckle holes. If the strap is too loose, use a leather punch to create an additional hole for a snugger fit.
Sole becomes dirty or loses traction
Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove debris and restore grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Ramses sandals, avoid exposing them to high heat sources, such as leaving them inside a hot car or near radiators, as this can damage the sole and construction materials. For routine cleaning, wipe the sandals down with a damp cloth; do not submerge them in water or use harsh chemical cleaners. Ensure the buckle is tightened enough to prevent slipping but loose enough to avoid skin irritation, especially during the first few weeks of ownership.
