FAQs
Are these sandals waterproof?
No, the leather and cork construction is not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or submerged in water.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Use a soft brush to remove surface dirt and a slightly damp cloth to wipe the leather. Do not soak the material.
Is the footbed replaceable?
While the footbed is designed to be very durable, it is not intended to be removed or replaced by the user.
Will these fit a wider foot?
Birkenstocks are known for their generous, natural fit, and the buckle can be adjusted to accommodate different foot volumes.
Can I wear these with socks?
Yes, the Boston model is frequently styled with socks for extra warmth and a trendy aesthetic.
Troubleshooting
The sandals feel too stiff initially.
Wear them for short periods of 1-2 hours at a time during the first week to allow the cork to warm up and mold to your feet.
Footbed feels slippery due to moisture.
Ensure the sandals are properly aired out after use; you may use a suede-safe powder or foot care product to manage excess moisture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the Birkenstock Boston uses a cork footbed, it is normal for the sandals to feel slightly rigid during the first few days of wear. Allow the footbed time to soften and compress based on your unique stride. Regarding care, avoid leaving your sandals in direct sunlight or near heat sources like radiators, as extreme heat can dry out and damage the cork. If the leather upper becomes soiled, use a dry, soft brush to remove dust and a slightly dampened cloth for light stains. If the footbed becomes moist from perspiration, store the sandals in a well-ventilated area to allow the cork to dry naturally.
