How does the EVA Boston compare with the cork Boston?

The EVA version is one molded piece, so it is waterproof, washable and much lighter. The cork original is firmer, more supportive and more durable, but it should not get soaked.

Does the Boston EVA run true to size?

Many buyers say it runs small and size up. If you are between sizes or wear thick socks, going up one size is the safer choice.

Can you wear the Boston EVA in the shower or at the pool?

Yes. The EVA upper, lining and sole are waterproof and washable, which is why owners use it at pools, beaches and in showers.

Is the footbed the same as other Birkenstocks?

It uses the anatomically shaped Birkenstock footbed with a deep heel cup and arch support, molded in EVA rather than cork and suede.

How should I clean the Boston EVA?

Rinse with water and mild soap, then let it air dry away from direct heat. Avoid machines and hot dryers, which can warp the foam.

Does it work for wide feet?

The molded EVA footbed follows Birkenstock's roomy shape, but the single-piece build has less give than cork. Try your usual Birkenstock size first.
