FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard UK sizing for adults, though the adjustable straps (if present) allow for minor fit customization.
Can I wear these in the rain?
It is not recommended. Suede and leather materials, along with the cork footbed, can be damaged by excessive moisture.
How do I break in new Birkenstock mules?
Wear them around the house for an hour or two at a time during the first week to allow your feet to adjust to the arch support.
What is the best way to store them?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent the cork from drying out.
Are these suitable for people with flat feet?
Many users with flat feet find the orthopedic arch support highly beneficial, though individual results may vary based on specific needs.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels too stiff initially
This is normal for new Birkenstocks. Wear them for short periods at home to gradually mold the cork to your foot shape.
Visible water spots on suede upper
Allow the shoes to air dry away from heat, then use a suede brush to restore the texture of the nap.
Footbed looks darkened or soiled
Use a specialized Birkenstock cleaner or a very slightly damp cloth to wipe the surface, then allow to dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When you first receive your Birkenstock mules, ensure you are wearing socks for the first few days of wear to allow the footbed to soften against your feet. For suede models, it is highly recommended to use a suede-specific brush to remove dirt and a weather-proofing spray to protect against light moisture. Avoid exposing your sandals to extreme heat sources like radiators, as this can damage the material and the cork footbed. To keep the footbed clean, wipe it gently with a damp cloth and allow it to air dry naturally in a shaded, well-ventilated area.
