FAQs

How do I clean the suede upper?

Use a suede brush to remove dirt. For stains, use a suede cleaner and follow the instructions. Avoid getting the suede too wet.

How do I care for the cork footbed?

Wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking. Apply cork sealant to protect and extend the life of the cork.

Are Birkenstock Boston clogs waterproof?

The clogs are not fully waterproof. They can withstand light moisture, but prolonged exposure to water should be avoided to prevent damage to the cork footbed.

How do I break in my Birkenstock Boston clogs?

Wear them for short periods at first, gradually increasing the wear time as the footbed molds to your foot. The cork will soften and conform with wear.

Can I wear socks with the Boston clogs?

Yes, wearing socks is common and recommended, especially in cooler weather. It also helps to absorb sweat and protect the footbed.

What is the lifespan of Birkenstock Boston clogs?

With proper care, Birkenstock Boston clogs can last for many years. The lifespan depends on how often they are worn and how well they are maintained.

Where are Birkenstock Boston clogs made?

Birkenstock clogs are made in Europe.

Troubleshooting

Clogs feel too tight or loose.

Adjust the strap to find the right fit. Ensure you have the correct Birkenstock size by consulting the size chart.

Cork footbed is cracking.

Apply cork sealant regularly to prevent drying. Avoid exposing the clogs to extreme heat or dryness.

Suede is stained.

Use a suede cleaner and brush gently. Test the cleaner on a hidden area first.
