FAQs
Are these suitable for wide feet?
Yes, the Boston series is known for its spacious toe box and comfortable fit, making it a great choice for various foot widths.
Can these shoes get wet?
It is recommended to avoid prolonged exposure to water, as moisture can damage the cork footbed over time.
How do I know if the fit is correct?
Your child should have a small amount of space at both the heel and the toes when standing to allow for natural movement.
Are these unisex?
Yes, the Birkenstock Boston design is suitable for both boys and girls.
What is the benefit of the cork footbed?
The cork-latex footbed provides natural shock absorption and molds to the unique shape of the child's foot over time for custom support.
Troubleshooting
The footbed feels too stiff initially.
This is expected. Wear them for 1-2 hours per day initially to allow the natural materials to soften.
Outer material looks dusty or dull.
Use a soft brush to gently remove surface dust and restore the appearance of the upper material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these clogs feature a cork footbed, it is normal for them to feel slightly firm initially. Allow your child to wear them for short durations over the first week to let the footbed adapt to their anatomy. To clean, use a damp cloth to wipe the upper and a soft brush to remove dirt from the sole edges. Avoid exposing the shoes to extreme heat or direct sunlight for extended periods, as this can degrade the cork and natural adhesives. Ensure the correct UK size is selected, as Birkenstocks often provide a generous fit.
