FAQs
Are these shoes water-resistant?
No, the suede exterior is not waterproof. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain or wet conditions to prevent permanent staining.
Do I need to wear socks with the Naples Wrapped?
That is a matter of personal preference. They are designed with a suede-lined footbed that feels comfortable against bare skin, but they can be worn with socks.
How should I clean the suede?
Use a specialized suede brush for dry dirt. For tougher stains, use a suede eraser or a professional-grade suede cleaner.
Is the footbed removable?
No, the signature cork-latex footbed is integrated into the construction of the shoe and is not intended to be removed.
How do I know if they fit correctly?
Your toes should have enough room to spread, and your heel should sit securely in the heel cup of the footbed without hanging over the edge.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels too stiff initially
Birkenstock footbeds require a break-in period. Wear them for short durations (1-2 hours) initially to allow the cork to soften and conform to your foot.
Suede looks discolored after rain
Let the shoes dry naturally away from heat sources. Once completely dry, use a suede brush to restore the nap.
Stitching appears slightly loose
Visible stitching is part of the moccasin design. If a stitch pulls, avoid pulling it further; if the integrity is compromised, consult a professional cobbler.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No complex setup is required for the Naples Wrapped; simply slide them on and ensure the heel is seated correctly in the footbed. To maintain the longevity of your shoes:
- Cleaning: Use a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and debris regularly.
- Moisture Protection: Apply a suede-safe water and stain repellent spray before first use.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the cork from drying out or the suede from fading.
- Cork Maintenance: If the cork edges appear dry over time, a thin coat of cork sealer can prevent cracking.
