FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
They feature a latex splash protection layer for light moisture, but they are not fully waterproof or designed for heavy rain.
Can I replace the insoles?
The midsole construction is integrated into the design, so the insoles are not intended to be removed or replaced.
Are they true to size?
Birkenstock trainers generally follow standard UK sizing. If you prefer a thicker sock, consider sizing up by a half size.
What is the primary material of the upper?
The upper is crafted from high-quality synthetic leather, providing a balance of durability and a lightweight feel.
Is this a unisex model?
Yes, the Bend series is designed to be a unisex sneaker, suitable for both men and women.
How do I maintain the cork midsole?
Keep the cork away from excessive moisture and extreme heat to prevent the material from drying out or cracking.
Troubleshooting
Footbed feels stiff
The cork-PU composite requires heat from your feet to mold; wear them for short intervals to facilitate the break-in process.
Outer material showing minor scuffs
Use a soft, slightly damp microfiber cloth to gently buff the surface; avoid abrasive brushes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Bend trainers, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, allow 2-3 days of light wear for the footbed to adapt to your stride.
- Cleaning: Wipe the synthetic leather upper with a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water to protect the cork-PU components.
- Storage: Keep away from direct heat sources like radiators, as excessive heat can degrade the adhesives used in the midsole.
- Protection: If the protective latex layer shows wear, consult with a cobbler regarding specialized protective sprays suitable for synthetic materials.
