Your Birkenstock Boston Clogs require minimal setup:
Adjust the Buckle: Upon first wear, adjust the metal buckle strap over your instep. Fasten it so the clog feels secure but not uncomfortably tight, allowing for natural foot movement.
Break-in Period: Wear your clogs for short periods initially, gradually increasing wear time. The leather will soften, and the footbed will mold to your foot's unique shape for optimal comfort.

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your leather clogs:
Cleaning the Leather Upper:
Brush off any loose dirt or dust with a soft brush.
Use a damp cloth (not wet) with a small amount of mild leather cleaner to gently wipe down the leather. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Allow to air dry completely away from direct heat.
Conditioning: Regularly apply a good quality leather conditioner or balm to keep the leather supple and prevent it from drying out, cracking, or fading. Follow the product's instructions.
Protecting the Sole: Wipe the EVA sole clean with a damp cloth as needed.
Water Exposure: Avoid prolonged exposure to water. If they get wet, let them air dry naturally, stuffed with newspaper to help maintain their shape, and then condition the leather.
Storage: Store clogs in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
