FAQs

Are these sandals waterproof?

No, while they are durable, the cork-latex footbed and leather straps are not designed for water exposure. Avoid wearing them at the beach or in the rain.

How long does it take to break them in?

Most users find that it takes between two to four weeks of regular wear for the footbed to soften and fully mold to their feet.

Can I replace the footbed?

Birkenstock footbeds are integrated into the construction. It is recommended to contact an authorized professional for any potential repair services.

How do I choose the right size?

Birkenstock sizing is generally true to size. Ensure your heel sits comfortably in the deep heel cup and your toes do not touch the front rim.

Can I wear these with socks?

Yes, wearing them with socks is a popular way to break in the sandals and provides extra comfort in cooler weather.

Troubleshooting

Footbed feels too hard initially

This is normal. Wear the sandals for 1-2 hours at a time inside the house to allow the cork to warm up and conform to your foot shape.

Buckle strap feels loose

Adjust the metal buckle to the next hole to ensure the strap holds your foot securely against the footbed without causing skin irritation.

Leather straps feel stiff

Gently massage the leather or wear the sandals with socks for the first few days to soften the material through natural movement.

Pros and Cons

  • High-quality, long-lasting leather materials
  • Adjustable straps ensure a perfect fit for various foot widths
  • Lightweight design prevents leg fatigue

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Arizona sandals, the initial fit is crucial. Use the metal buckles to adjust the straps so they are snug but not constricting, allowing your foot to sit fully within the raised heel cup.

Care Instructions:

  1. Avoid excessive heat, such as leaving the sandals in a parked car, as extreme temperatures can damage the cork.
  2. Keep them away from prolonged direct water exposure to prevent the adhesive and cork from deteriorating.
  3. Spot clean the leather straps with a dry cloth and use a suede brush on the footbed liner if necessary to remove debris.
  4. If the edges of the cork become dry, a light application of cork sealant can help maintain its integrity.
