What sets the Boston apart? It’s all in the details. The signature Birkenstock footbed, crafted from natural cork and latex, moulds to the unique shape of your feet delivering personalised support with every step. The adjustable strap ensures a secure yet flexible fit, while the closed-toe design offers added protection making it perfect for any season. Wear them cosy with socks in winter or slip them on barefoot for a breezy summer feel.
From laid back weekends to effortless everyday wear, the Boston blends style and function with ease. Dress it up with tailored pieces for a polished look or keep it casual with denim and knitwear. With a wide range of colours and finishes, including classic neutrals like taupe and black to bold statement hues, there’s a Boston for every wardrobe.

Yes, the Boston is very much a unisex style, and it's one of Birkenstock's most popular crossover styles worn by all genders. Sizes run across the full EU range, so whether you're shopping for a men's, women's, or unisex fit, you'll find the same clog. Just use our size guide to convert your AU size to the right EU size and you're good to go.
Absolutely and in fact, Birkenstock is one of the best brands out there for wider feet. The Boston is available in both regular and narrow fit, so you can find the fit that suits your foot shape. If you're unsure which width is right for you, feel free to reach out to us and we'll help you figure it out before you order. The below picture also displays how to tell the difference between a regular width and a narrow.
The Boston is a closed-toe clog, which makes it really different from something like the Arizona (which is an open two-strap sandal). Because the toe is enclosed, the Boston works brilliantly year-round and gives you a bit more coverage and warmth, especially if you're wearing it with socks in cooler months. It still has that same iconic Birkenstock footbed underneath, so you're getting all the same arch support just in a more versatile, shoe-like silhouette.
The clogs can feel a little firm underfoot for the first week or two and that's completely normal. The cork and latex footbed is essentially taking the shape of your individual foot although once it does, they genuinely feel like they were made for you. We usually suggest wearing them for a few hours a day to start rather than committing to a full day straight away. Most people find after about 1–2 weeks they become their most-reached-for pair.
Yes! One of the best things about Birkenstocks is that they're designed to be repaired rather than replaced. We send repairs to the workshop, so when your cork footbed starts to compress or the sole wears through, it doesn't have to be the end. It's a much more sustainable option than buying a new pair, and a well repaired Boston can genuinely last many more years. Get in touch with us for more details on the repair process and costs.
