FAQs

Can I replace the original Deep Blue footbed?

Yes, the Deep Blue footbed is removable, allowing you to replace it with a fresh pair or swap it for a custom orthotic insert.

Are these shoes suitable for wet weather?

While the rubber sole provides good grip, the suede upper is not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or deep puddles to protect the leather.

How should I clean the suede upper?

Use a soft suede brush for daily maintenance. For deeper stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner or eraser, following the manufacturer's instructions.

Are these unisex?

Yes, the Highwood Low design is versatile and suitable for both men and women, provided you select the correct size.

Can I machine wash these shoes?

No, machine washing will damage the suede and the structure of the footbed. Always clean by hand using appropriate leather care products.

Troubleshooting

Footbed feels stiff or uncomfortable initially

Birkenstock footbeds often require a short 'break-in' period to conform to your unique arch and heel shape. Wear them for short durations until the material softens.

Suede looks dull or matted

Use a specialized suede brush to gently stroke the material in one direction to lift the nap and restore its original texture.

Loose fit or heel slippage

Try adjusting the lacing pattern to be tighter across the midfoot or use a different lacing technique to better lock the heel in place.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Anatomical footbed provides excellent arch support
  • Removable footbed allows for customization or cleaning
  • Professional-grade sole offers high-traction grip
  • Soft suede material offers a comfortable, adaptive fit
  • Versatile style suitable for travel and casual city wear

Cons

  • Suede material is sensitive to moisture and stains
  • Requires a break-in period for the footbed to mold perfectly
  • Light-colored suede can show dirt more easily than leather

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Upon receiving your shoes, ensure the fit is snug but not tight. If you wear custom orthotics, the Deep Blue footbed is removable, allowing you to swap it out easily.

Care Instructions:

  1. Protect: Apply a suede-specific water and stain repellent spray before first wear.
  2. Clean: Use a dry suede brush to remove loose dirt and revitalize the nap of the leather.
  3. Storage: Keep away from direct heat sources, which can cause the suede to stiffen or crack.
  4. Maintenance: If the footbed becomes damp, remove it from the shoe to allow it to air dry naturally in a well-ventilated area.
