Birkenstock Sizing and Fitting Tips...Shoes
A good fit ensures that you get all the comfort and support
Birkenstocks can offer. So be sure to take time to get the right
size and fit. Here are a few tips:
Sizing Birkenstock Sandals
Birkenstock footwear uses European shoe sizes and they come in
Narrow and Regular widths. The regular width fits
wider foot needs. If you have not worn Birkenstocks before, or don't remember your
Birkenstock size, have someone trace your foot while standing. Place
your order then send your footprint tracings for a proper fit.
Footprints and Birkis style run one size larger than the typical Birkenstock size. For example, a customer who is size 38, will be 39.
Fitting Birkenstock Sandals
Typically, everyone has one foot that is a bit larger than the other.
Always fit Birkenstock's for the larger foot.
Open all the straps and place foot in the footbed.
Check to see if the foot has enough room and the heel rests
completely within the heelcup. Each foot should fit inside the
footbed with just enough extra length for movement while walking
(approximately 1/4" extra length at toes). On the sides, the foot
should fit closely to the edges of the shoe, without overlapping the
rim.
Straps should be worn loosely; your feet should not feel
"pressed" into the arch or toe bar; your feet need to move freely in
the contoured footbed as you walk. Back straps worn too tightly push
the foot forward, preventing them from resting naturally in the
footbeds.
