FAQs

Can I get my Birkenstock Boston Suede clogs wet?

No, the suede material is not designed for wet conditions and can be damaged by water. Avoid wearing them in rain, puddles, or near bodies of water. If they get wet, allow them to air dry naturally.

How do I know if my Boston clogs fit correctly?

Your heel should rest comfortably in the heel cup, and your toes should not touch the front rim when standing. There should be a small gap around your heel and toes, allowing for natural foot movement. The adjustable strap should provide a secure yet comfortable hold.

What is the footbed made of?

The iconic Birkenstock footbed is made from a combination of cork and natural latex, providing flexibility, cushioning, and shock absorption. It's anatomically shaped to support your foot's natural contours.

Is there a break-in period for these clogs?

Yes, it is common for the anatomical cork-latex footbed to require a short break-in period. We recommend wearing them for only a few hours at a time initially, gradually increasing wear time until the footbed has fully molded to your unique foot shape.

How often should I clean the suede upper?

Regular cleaning with a suede brush is recommended to remove dust and dirt as needed. For more thorough cleaning or stains, use a specialized suede cleaner as per product instructions, typically every few months or when visible dirt accumulates.

Are these clogs suitable for people with arch support needs?

Absolutely. The Birkenstock anatomical footbed is renowned for its excellent arch support, including metatarsal, transverse, and longitudinal arches, making them a popular choice for individuals seeking comfort and support for their feet.

Troubleshooting

Suede looks dull or matted

Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the nap of the suede. Brush in one consistent direction.

Footbed feels uncomfortable or hard initially

The cork-latex footbed requires a break-in period to properly mold to your foot's unique shape. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time over a few weeks.

Clogs feel too loose or too tight on my foot

Adjust the metal buckle on the adaptable strap. Ensure your foot is comfortably snug, allowing for slight movement without excessive sliding.

Squeaking sound when walking

This can sometimes occur if moisture gets between the footbed and the sole, or if the footbed lining is slightly loose. Try sprinkling a small amount of baby powder under the footbed lining. If the issue persists, contact Birkenstock customer service.

Suede has a water stain

Allow the clogs to dry completely naturally. Once dry, gently brush the affected area with a suede brush. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner, following its instructions carefully.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup

Your Birkenstock Boston clogs arrive ready to wear. Before your first use, adjust the adaptable strap using the metal buckle to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. The strap should hold your foot gently without feeling too tight or loose, allowing your heel to lift slightly within the heel cup as you walk.

Care Instructions for Suede

Maintaining the premium suede upper is key to prolonging the life and appearance of your clogs. Follow these steps:

  1. Water and Stain Protection: Before first wear, apply a high-quality suede and nubuck protector spray. Reapply periodically according to product instructions, especially after cleaning.
  2. Regular Cleaning: Use a suede brush to gently remove dirt and dust. Brush in one direction to restore the nap.
  3. Spot Cleaning Stains: For stubborn stains, use a specialized suede cleaner and follow the product's instructions carefully. Test on an inconspicuous area first.
  4. Drying: If your clogs get wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, which can damage the suede.
  5. Footbed Care: Wipe the cork-latex footbed with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Allow to air dry completely. Avoid saturating the footbed.
  6. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
