FAQs
Are Birkenstock Boston clogs true to size?
Birkenstock clogs generally run true to size, but it's recommended to consult a sizing chart. The fit should be snug but not tight, with a small gap between your toes and the end of the footbed.
Can I wear these clogs in the rain?
It is not recommended to wear suede Birkenstock clogs in wet conditions, as water can damage the suede material and potentially affect the footbed.
How do I break in my new Boston clogs?
Wear them for short periods daily. The cork footbed will gradually conform to your foot's unique shape, and the suede will soften, making them more comfortable over time.
Can the insoles be removed or replaced?
The cork-latex footbed is integrated into the clog and is not designed to be removable. However, it is very durable and will mold to your foot.
What is the difference between the suede and leather Boston models?
The primary difference is the upper material. Suede offers a softer, more flexible feel and a matte finish, while leather offers a smoother appearance and may be more resistant to light moisture.
How should I store my Boston clogs when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat, to maintain the integrity of the suede and cork materials.
Troubleshooting
Clogs feel stiff or uncomfortable initially.
This is normal for new suede clogs. Wear them for short periods initially and gradually increase wear time. The cork footbed will mold to your feet over time, and the suede will soften.
Suede material shows water spots or stains.
If minor, try a suede eraser. For more significant stains, professional cleaning might be necessary. Apply a suede protector spray preventatively.
Footbed feels slippery after cleaning.
Ensure the footbed is completely dry before wearing. If it remains slippery, a light dusting of baking soda can help absorb moisture and improve grip.
Buckle is difficult to adjust.
Ensure the strap is dry. You may need to gently work the buckle back and forth. If it remains stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant on the buckle mechanism might help, but apply sparingly.
