FAQs

Are these slides suitable for wide feet?

The Arizona BS Slides have a regular fit, but the adjustable buckles on the two straps allow for a degree of customization. You can loosen the straps to accommodate slightly wider feet.

How do I clean the cork footbed?

Gently wipe the cork footbed with a damp cloth. Allow it to air dry completely away from direct heat sources. Avoid soaking.

Can I wear these slides in wet conditions?

It is not recommended to wear these slides in wet conditions. Prolonged exposure to water can damage the leather and cork materials.

What is the break-in period for Birkenstock Arizona BS Slides?

Most users find that the slides start to feel comfortable after a few wears as the cork footbed molds to their feet. Wear them for short periods initially to ease the break-in process.

What material are the straps made of?

The straps are made of high-quality black leather.

How do I adjust the straps?

Each strap has a metal buckle. You can slide the buckle through the slots in the strap to tighten or loosen the fit around your foot.

Are these slides unisex?

While this specific product description is for adult women, the Arizona model is generally considered unisex, with sizing varying between men's and women's ranges.

Troubleshooting

Buckles feel stiff or difficult to adjust.

Gently work the buckles back and forth. If they remain stiff, a small amount of leather conditioner applied carefully to the buckle mechanism might help, but avoid saturating the leather.

Leather straps show scuff marks.

Use a leather cleaner specifically designed for the type of leather. For minor scuffs, a leather conditioner or polish in a matching color can often restore the appearance.

Footbed feels uncomfortable initially.

Birkenstock footbeds are designed to mold to your feet over time. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase the duration to allow the footbed to conform to your unique shape.
