- How does the Boston fit compared with the Arizona?
- The Boston uses the same footbed as the Arizona, so the fit is similar, but the closed upper feels snugger across the instep. Many people take the same size in both.
- Should I size down in the Boston?
- Many owners size down one European size because the suede stretches and the fit runs roomy. If you are between sizes or wear thin socks, sizing down is the common choice.
- Is the Boston good for plantar fasciitis?
- Yes. The deep heel cup and firm arch are widely recommended by podiatrists and praised by owners with heel pain. The firm cork takes getting used to if you normally wear cushioned shoes.
- Can I wear the Boston in winter?
- Only in mild, dry weather. The suede is not water-resistant and the cork footbed can crack if soaked or exposed to heat, so it is not a snow or rain shoe.
- Can the footbed or sole be replaced?
- Yes. Birkenstock and many cobblers can resole the Boston and replace the cork footbed, which is why owners keep pairs for years.
- What is in the box?
- One pair of Boston clogs. The footbed is cork and latex with a suede lining, and the outsole is EVA.
