FAQs
Is the lamb fur lining genuine?
Yes, the insole and strap lining are made from high-quality, genuine lamb fur for maximum warmth and comfort.
How do I clean the suede exterior?
Use a dedicated suede brush for regular cleaning. For stains, a suede eraser is recommended. Avoid getting the suede wet, and never use water-based cleaners directly on it.
Is this clog suitable for outdoor wear?
The Boston clog is primarily designed for home and casual indoor use, or for dry, mild outdoor conditions. The suede and fur components are not ideal for wet or harsh weather.
What does 'Narrow Fit' mean?
The 'Narrow Fit' indicates that the clog is designed for individuals with standard or narrower foot widths. It may feel snug on wider feet.
Can I replace the footbed?
Yes, the cork-latex footbed is often replaceable. You can purchase replacement footbeds from Birkenstock or authorized retailers.
How should I store these clogs when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or heat, to preserve the condition of the suede and fur. Using a shoe bag is recommended.
Are these clogs warm enough for winter?
Yes, the natural lamb fur lining provides significant warmth, making them an excellent choice for cold weather or winter evenings.
Troubleshooting
Suede material appears dirty or stained.
Use a suede brush to remove loose dirt. For tougher stains, try a suede eraser. For persistent stains, consult a professional cleaner specializing in leather and suede.
Lamb fur lining feels matted or flattened.
Gently brush the lamb fur with a soft brush to restore its loft. Ensure the lining is completely dry if it has become damp.
Clog feels too loose or too tight.
Adjust the metal buckle on the strap to achieve a more secure or comfortable fit. If the fit is fundamentally wrong due to foot width, consider the availability of wider fit models if needed.
Cork footbed shows signs of wear.
Minor scuffs can often be cleaned with a damp cloth. For significant wear, replacement footbeds may be available from Birkenstock or specialized cobblers.
