FAQs
How do I clean the suede material?
Use a specialized suede brush for regular maintenance. For stains, use a suede cleaner and protector spray. Avoid water and harsh chemicals.
Will the cork footbed break in?

Troubleshooting
Suede feels stiff or looks dull
Use a suede brush to restore the nap. For stubborn marks, consult a specialized suede cleaner.
Footbed feels uncomfortable initially
Allow the sandals to break in gradually. Wear them for short periods initially and increase wear time as they conform to your foot.
Slippery when wet
Suede and EVA materials can be slippery when wet. Use caution on wet surfaces and avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
Sizing feels off
Birkenstocks are designed with a specific fit. Ensure you are aware of the brand's sizing conventions. The regular fit is for average width; consider half sizes or different models if needed.
