FAQs

How long does it take to break in the Birkenstocks?

Most users find that it takes between two to four weeks of regular wear for the cork footbed to fully adapt to the shape of their feet.

Can I wear these in the rain?

It is not recommended. Excessive moisture can damage the cork footbed and the adhesive materials used in construction.

Are these suitable for people with flat feet?

The signature contoured arch support is specifically designed to accommodate various foot shapes, including flat feet, by promoting natural alignment.

How do I determine if the fit is correct?

There should be a small amount of space at the heel and toe, allowing the foot to move naturally without hanging over the edges of the footbed.

How should I store them when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperature fluctuations to prevent the material from cracking.

Troubleshooting

Footbed feels too hard initially

This is normal. Wear the sandals for short sessions at home to allow the cork to warm up and mold to your feet over time.

Buckles rubbing against the skin

Ensure the straps are adjusted to the correct tension. If the issue persists, ensure the strap is lying flat against the skin.

Footbed surface feels dusty or dry

Use a suede brush or a specialized cork sealant periodically to maintain the integrity and appearance of the footbed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent anatomical arch support for all-day comfort
  • High-quality, hard-wearing synthetic materials
  • Highly adjustable fit via dual pin-buckle straps
  • Lightweight and shock-absorbing EVA outsole
  • Sophisticated, monochromatic design details

Cons

  • Requires a break-in period for the cork footbed to soften
  • Not intended for submersion in water or extremely wet conditions
  • Firm sole may feel rigid to those accustomed to squishy foam footwear

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your sandals remain in optimal condition:

  1. Fitting: When first wearing, adjust the straps so they are snug but not tight; you should be able to slide a finger under the strap comfortably.
  2. Break-in: Start by wearing them for short periods of 1-2 hours a day until the footbed conforms to your stride.
  3. Cleaning: Wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth. If the footbed becomes dirty, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface debris.
  4. Storage: Avoid leaving the sandals in direct heat or extreme sunlight for extended periods, as this can degrade the cork material and cause the adhesive to dry out.
  5. Moisture: Keep away from water. If they get soaked, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators.
