Full details

The Birkenstock Solana LEVE Charcoal slippers are designed for adults seeking comfort and support in a casual, open-toe sandal.

FAQs

Are these suitable for walking long distances?

Yes, the anatomical cork footbed and EVA sole provide excellent support and cushioning, making them comfortable for extended wear during casual activities.

How do I clean the suede upper?

Use a suede brush to clean off dry dirt and restore the nap. For stains, a suede eraser can be used. Avoid getting the suede wet.

Can I wear these in the shower or pool?

No, these slippers are not waterproof. Water exposure can damage the suede upper and cork footbed.

Do the cork footbeds require any special treatment?

The cork footbed can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Allow it to air dry completely away from heat. It will naturally mold to your foot with use.

What is the purpose of the adjustable touch fastener?

The touch fastener allows you to customize the fit across the top of your foot, ensuring a secure and comfortable hold.

Are these slippers suitable for outdoor use?

While they can be worn outdoors for short periods, their primary design is for casual comfort. The suede material is best protected from harsh weather and rough surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Suede appears dull or dirty

Use a suede brush to gently lift the nap and remove dry dirt. For tougher stains, try a suede eraser.

Footbed feels stiff after cleaning

Ensure the footbed has air-dried completely away from direct heat. The cork will naturally soften with wear.

Strap does not feel secure

Adjust the touch fastener to ensure it is firmly attached and providing a snug fit. Check the hook-and-loop material for debris that might be affecting adhesion.

Slippers feel too wide

Utilize the adjustable touch fastener to tighten the fit. If they remain too wide, they may not be the best fit for very narrow feet.
