Is it normal for my feet to hurt after wearing my new Birkenstocks? How long does it take to break in a new pair?Updated a year ago
We recommend you should break in a new pair of Birkenstocks slowly. Start by wearing them around your house and increase the time you wear them gradually. It can take time for your foot to adjust to the contours of the footbed, and for the cork/latex to flex and mould. Ideally, an hour or two at a time until you feel comfortable to increase to a longer period.
