I was visiting with a friend for 3 hours and left my Birks outside. This is the state I found them in when I returned. These Birks have only been in South Sudan for 4 months. I should have read the care tips before bringing them here. Thankfully I had a pair of Keens which have fared well but aren't easy to slip on.
Rachels Crocs seem to be faring quite well so I would bring a pair of those if we were to ever come back here. We brought the original Crocs made of the "Croslite" stuff. The fake ones made with rubber probably won't last too long.
Lesson learned. If you are ever moving to South Sudan, don't bring Birkenstocks. They won't survive the heat here.
