FAQs

Can I wear Birkenstock Boston slippers outside?

Yes, they feature a durable EVA sole designed for both indoor and outdoor use.

How do I know my correct size?

Birkenstock sizes are based on standard adult foot measurements; ensure there is a small gap behind your heel and in front of your toes.

Are these suitable for people with flat feet?

The anatomical footbed is designed to provide arch support that can be very beneficial for those with flat feet.

Should I wear socks with the Boston?

Yes, many people choose to wear them with socks, especially in cooler weather, as the design easily accommodates them.

How should I clean the cork sole?

Wipe the edges of the cork with a damp cloth if they become dirty, but ensure you do not saturate the material with water.

Is the footbed replaceable?

While the footbed is not meant to be removed, many professional cobblers can resole or refurbish Birkenstock sandals if the cork becomes worn out.

Troubleshooting

Footbed feels hard during the first few wears

This is normal. Wear the sandals for short periods indoors to allow the cork to warm up and gradually mold to your foot shape.

Strap buckle is digging into the foot

Loosen the strap one hole to increase volume, or wear slightly thicker socks during the break-in process to prevent friction.

Surface marks or stains appearing on the exterior

Use a specialized suede brush or a dry nubuck eraser to gently buff out surface-level marks.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent arch support for all-day comfort
  • Versatile design suitable for indoor or outdoor use
  • Adjustable strap ensures a personalized fit
  • High-quality construction for long-term durability
  • Classic aesthetic that pairs well with various outfits

Cons

  • Suede material is sensitive to water and stains
  • Requires a break-in period for the cork footbed to mold to your feet
  • Not intended for heavy-duty hiking or wet environments

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the best fit, adjust the buckle so that your foot feels secure but not constricted; you should have enough room to wiggle your toes comfortably. To care for your Boston sandals, keep them away from direct heat sources like radiators, as extreme heat can crack the cork footbed. If the surface becomes dusty, use a soft-bristled brush to gently clean the nubuck-style exterior. For the suede lining, avoid getting it wet and consider using a leather protector spray before your first wear to help repel minor splashes.
