FAQs
Are these Birkenstocks true to size?
Yes, they generally fit according to standard UK adult sizing, though the adjustable strap allows for fine-tuning the fit.
Can I wear these with socks?
Absolutely. The Boston clog is widely styled with socks, which also helps provide additional comfort during the break-in period.
How do I clean the leather upper?
Use a soft brush to remove surface dust and a slightly damp cloth for light spots. Avoid saturating the leather with water.
Are these suitable for arch support?
Yes, the anatomically shaped footbed is specifically engineered to provide firm arch support and improve posture.
Should I get the cork sealed?
It is highly recommended to apply a cork sealant to the exposed cork edges to maintain flexibility and prevent the material from crumbling over time.
Troubleshooting
The footbed feels too hard or uncomfortable initially
This is normal for new Birkenstocks. Wear them for short periods (1-2 hours) at home to allow the cork to gradually mold to your foot shape.
The buckle strap feels loose or slips
Ensure the buckle prong is properly seated in the hole and pull the strap firmly before securing; if the leather has stretched, an additional hole may need to be punched.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
When you first receive your clogs, use the metal buckle to adjust the strap so your foot feels snug but not restricted. To ensure longevity, keep the leather upper clean by wiping it with a dry cloth and using a dedicated leather conditioner periodically. Protect the cork edge with a thin layer of cork sealant to prevent it from drying out and cracking. Since these are made from natural materials, avoid exposing them to extreme heat or leaving them in direct sunlight for long periods, as this can damage the structural integrity of the cork base.
