The Birkenstock Boston is comfort at its purest. With its asymmetrical, anatomically shaped cork-latex footbed and iconic closed-toe design, the Boston delivers instant step-in comfort and long-lasting support. The front cap protects your toes, while the adjustable strap lets you customize the fit so it feels secure without ever feeling tight. Over time, the cork-latex footbed molds to your foot for a personalized feel you won’t find anywhere else.

Yes — that’s part of what makes the Boston so loved. It works as a house shoe, an everyday errand shoe, a work clog, and a casual staple you can wear year-round. The protective front, adjustable strap, and durable outsole make it just as functional outside as it is comfortable inside.

The Boston started as a house and work clog, but today it’s a major fashion staple. Its minimalist silhouette, premium materials, and effortlessly cool closed-toe design make it easy to pair with streetwear, cozy socks, denim, loungewear, and everything in between. It’s functional, timeless, and surprisingly chic — which is why it keeps showing up in trend cycles year after year.

One of the best parts of the Boston family is the variety of materials available, including:

• Natural leather
  
• Oiled leather
  
• Suede leather
  
• Soft Footbed versions
  
• Shearling (for extra warmth and coziness)
  
• Felt uppers (ideal for lounging at home)
  
• Metallics, rivet details, and fashion finishes
  
• Lightweight EVA (perfect for spa, beach, and warm-weather wear)
  

Each material gives the Boston a different vibe — from heritage leather to fashion-forward metallics.

Yes. The Boston features the original Birkenstock cork-latex footbed made from natural cork, natural latex, jute, and soft suede lining. The design includes:

• Deep heel cup for alignment
  
• Raised toe bar for natural movement
  
• Longitudinal and transverse arch support
  
• Roomy toe box for natural toe splay
  

The result is a clog that feels stable, supportive, and incredibly easy on tired feet.

Most customers stay with their usual Birkenstock size. If you’ve worn Arizona, Gizeh, or other Birkenstock classics, you’ll most likely wear the same size in the Boston.

• Narrow Width: Best for slim feet or those who like a close fit.
  
• Regular Width: Best for medium or wider feet.
  

The Boston also has an adjustable buckle, allowing you to fine-tune the fit.
