FAQs

What material is the upper made from?

The upper of the Birkenstock Boston LEVE is crafted from high-quality leather, providing a durable and stylish finish.

Is the footbed removable?

No, the contoured footbed is anatomically integrated into the design of the clog and is not removable.

How do I clean the leather upper?

To clean the leather upper, gently wipe it with a damp, soft cloth. For deeper cleaning and conditioning, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner suitable for the material.

Are these clogs true to size?

Birkenstock sizing can be unique. Generally, they run true to size, but some users with narrower feet may prefer to size down for a snugger fit. We recommend referring to the official Birkenstock size guide if unsure.

Can I wear these in rainy weather?

While leather offers some natural resistance, prolonged exposure to heavy rain or water is not recommended. Excessive moisture can damage the leather and the footbed material. It's best to avoid wet conditions to preserve your clogs.

What does 'LEVE' in the product name signify?

'LEVE' refers to the modern platform sole featured in this Birkenstock Boston model. It provides a contemporary aesthetic and a slight elevation compared to the traditional Boston clog.

Troubleshooting

The footbed feels hard or uncomfortable initially.

Birkenstock footbeds are designed to mold to your foot over time. Allow for a break-in period of a few days or weeks of intermittent wear. This allows the footbed to adapt to your unique foot shape, improving comfort.

The strap feels too loose or too tight, causing the clog to slip or pinch.

Use the adjustable buckle on the strap to customize the fit. Ensure it's snug enough to hold the clog securely without digging into your instep.

The leather upper appears dull, dry, or has minor scuffs.

Clean the leather with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. Apply a high-quality leather conditioner or cream to moisturize and protect the material. For scuffs, a specific leather restorer product may be used.

My feet sweat excessively in the clogs.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate socks (cotton or wool blends can help wick moisture) or consider using a foot powder designed to absorb moisture and reduce friction.

The EVA sole seems to have lost some cushioning or looks worn.

While durable, EVA can compress over extended use. Ensure you are cleaning the sole regularly to prevent debris buildup. For significant wear, professional repair may be an option, but often, sole wear is a sign of nearing the end of the product's lifespan.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Your Birkenstock Boston LEVE clogs are ready to wear right out of the box. The only setup required is adjusting the strap:

  1. Slide your foot into the clog.
  2. Adjust the buckle on the strap to achieve a snug, yet comfortable fit across your instep.
  3. Ensure your toes are not touching the front rim and your heel is not directly on the back rim of the footbed. There should be a small gap at both ends.

Compatibility

These clogs are compatible with a wide range of casual and smart-casual attire. They are primarily designed for adult women (UK 5 size specific for this variant) seeking comfort and style in their daily footwear. They pair well with:

  • Jeans, chinos, or linen trousers
  • Dresses and skirts
  • Shorts

Avoid wearing them for activities requiring significant foot stability or protection, such as intense sports or heavy-duty work.

Care Instructions

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your Birkenstock Boston LEVE clogs:

  • Leather Upper: To clean, gently wipe the leather with a damp, soft cloth. For deeper cleaning or conditioning, use a specialized leather cleaner and conditioner suitable for the leather type. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive water, which can dry out or damage the leather. Let them air dry away from direct heat.
  • Contoured Footbed: The footbed should be kept dry. If it gets damp, allow it to air dry completely. For light cleaning, wipe with a slightly damp cloth. Do not submerge the clogs in water.
  • EVA Sole: The lightweight EVA sole can be cleaned with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse with a clean damp cloth and air dry.
  • Storage: Store your clogs in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, which can affect the materials.
