FAQs
Are these sandals waterproof?
No, the suede upper is not waterproof and should be kept away from water and heavy rain.
Can I wear these without socks?
Yes, they are designed to be comfortable with or without socks, though wearing them barefoot may require more frequent cleaning of the footbed.
How do I know if the fit is correct?
Your heel should rest comfortably in the heel cup and your toes should have enough room to move naturally when you walk.
Can the footbed be replaced?
While the footbed is highly durable, individual components are generally not user-replaceable; however, professional cobblers can often resole or refurbish the footwear.
Are these suitable for wide feet?
The Boston design generally offers a accommodating fit, but ensure you select the correct width option if offered for your specific region.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels hard during initial wear
The Birkenstock footbed is designed to soften and mold to your foot over time; wear them consistently for short periods to accelerate the break-in process.
Suede appears dirty or matted
Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently lift the nap of the material and remove loose dirt or debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When you first receive your Boston sandals, ensure you are wearing them around the house for short periods to allow the footbed to adapt to your specific arch profile. For maintenance, avoid direct exposure to water, as moisture can stiffen or discolor the suede. To clean the suede, use a specialized brush designed for leather or suede to remove surface dust and dirt. Keep the sandals away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, as this can cause the material to warp or crack. If the suede becomes stained, use a dedicated suede eraser or professional cleaning kit to spot-treat the affected area.
