FAQs

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is made of textured, woven raffia, providing a natural and breathable feel.

How do I adjust the fit of the sandals?

Each sandal has two straps with oversized buckles. You can loosen or tighten these straps by adjusting the buckle positions to achieve a personalized fit.

Are these sandals suitable for water activities?

No, the raffia upper and cork footbed are not designed for prolonged exposure to water and can be damaged. They are best suited for dry conditions.

How long does the cork footbed typically last?

With proper care, the cork footbed is very durable. Regular cleaning and occasional conditioning with cork sealant can help extend its life and maintain its supportive qualities.

What is the sole height?

The sole height is approximately 2 cm.

What is the main difference between this and other Arizona models?

The Arizona Big Buckle Raffia features a distinctive raffia upper and oversized buckles, setting it apart from standard leather or synthetic models. It retains the core comfort features of the Arizona line.

Can I wear these in very hot weather?

Yes, the raffia upper is breathable and suitable for warm weather. However, avoid leaving the cork footbed in extremely high temperatures for extended periods, as it can become brittle.

Troubleshooting

Straps feel too loose or too tight

Adjust the buckles on each strap independently to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure the strap is threaded correctly through the buckle.

Raffia upper looks dirty or stained

Use a soft brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, lightly dampen a cloth and blot the affected area. Do not saturate the raffia. Allow to air dry away from heat.

Cork footbed feels stiff

The cork may need conditioning. Periodically apply Birkenstock's cork sealant to maintain its natural properties. Wear them regularly to help break them in.

Sandal feels slippery on certain surfaces

Ensure the rubber sole is clean. The grip may vary on exceptionally smooth or wet surfaces. Be cautious in such conditions.
