FAQs

Are these sandals waterproof?

No, the leather and cork-latex footbed should not be submerged in water. If they get wet, dry them slowly in a shaded, well-ventilated area.

How do I find my size?

Birkenstock sizes correspond to standard adult sizing. Check the UK size guide provided to match your usual footwear measurements.

Can I wear these with socks?

Yes, wearing the Madrid sandals with socks is a popular styling choice that also helps reduce friction during the initial break-in phase.

Do these provide arch support?

Yes, the signature Birkenstock contoured footbed is specifically designed to provide anatomical arch support.

How long will they last?

With proper care and occasional cleaning, the durable materials are designed to provide years of consistent wear.

Troubleshooting

The footbed feels too firm initially

This is normal for new Birkenstock footwear; wear them in short increments to allow the materials to soften and adapt to your anatomy.

Strap buckle feels loose during walking

Adjust the strap one hole tighter using the buckle to ensure a more secure fit across the bridge of your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Birkenstock Madrid sandals maintain their longevity, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Breaking In: Wear your sandals for a few hours at a time during the first week to allow the cork-latex footbed to mold to your foot shape.
  2. Leather Care: Use a dry or slightly damp cloth to wipe away dust and debris. If the leather becomes wet, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight or locked cars for extended periods, as high heat can damage the footbed materials.
  4. Fit Check: Ensure the buckle is adjusted so the strap feels secure but not constricting, allowing your toes to move freely.
