- How does the Boston Shearling differ from the regular Boston?
- The Shearling adds a genuine shearling lining for warmth and a softer feel. The regular Boston has a bare suede or leather footbed and is better for mild weather.
- Should I size up or down?
- Birkenstock recommends fitting to the footbed, with toes just behind the front edge. The shearling can feel snug at first and packs down with wear, so many buyers stay with their usual Birkenstock size.
- Can I wear them outside?
- Yes. The EVA outsole handles pavement and short errands. The suede upper and shearling lining are not water-resistant, so keep them out of rain and snow.
- Are they good for wide feet?
- The Boston uses Birkenstock's roomy, rounded toe box, which suits wider feet. The adjustable buckle strap helps secure the instep.
- How do I clean the shearling?
- Brush the suede with a soft brush and spot-clean the lining gently. Avoid soaking them, and let them air-dry away from direct heat.
- Do they work as house shoes?
- They do, and the firm footbed supports the arch better than most slippers. They are heavier and warmer than a soft slipper, though.
