FAQs

Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?

The Madrid sandals feature adjustable straps, which can help accommodate a range of foot widths, providing a more customizable fit.

How do I know if I have the right size?

It's recommended to try them on if possible. Generally, there should be a small gap between your toes and the front edge of the footbed, and between your heel and the back edge. Refer to Birkenstock's sizing chart for specific measurements.

Can I wear these sandals in wet conditions?

While the materials are durable, it is not recommended to submerge them in water or wear them in excessively wet conditions. Allow them to air dry completely if they become damp.

What is the purpose of the cork footbed?

The cork footbed is a signature feature of Birkenstock, designed to provide natural cushioning, arch support, and shock absorption, contributing to overall foot comfort and health.

How should I clean the glitter finish?

Gently wipe the glitter surface with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive water, which could damage the finish.

Do these sandals offer good support for walking long distances?

Yes, the ergonomic design and shock-absorbing cork footbed are intended to provide excellent support and comfort for extended periods of walking.

Troubleshooting

Sandals feel too tight or loose

Adjust the buckles on the straps to achieve a snug yet comfortable fit. Ensure the straps are evenly tightened.

Discomfort after initial wear

Birkenstock footbeds require a break-in period. Wear the sandals for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration as the footbed molds to your foot.

Glitter appears to be wearing off

Minimize direct friction and avoid harsh cleaning methods. Gentle wiping with a damp cloth is recommended for maintenance.

Footbed feels stiff

This is normal during the break-in phase. Continued wear will allow the cork to soften and conform to your foot's shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These sandals require no assembly. Simply adjust the straps to your preferred fit.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult women. Designed for casual wear and everyday use. Not intended for strenuous athletic activities.

Care:

  • Cleaning the Footbed: Wipe the cork footbed gently with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or soaking the footbed, as this can damage the cork.
  • Cleaning the Upper: For the shiny glitter material, use a soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt and smudges. Avoid abrasive cleaners or excessive moisture, which could affect the glitter's adhesion or finish.
  • Drying: If the sandals get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight, which can cause the materials to warp or crack.
