Birkenstock Sandals
Recommended Comfort Shoes

 

I highly recommend Birkenstock Sandals.

If you normally wear orthotics

If you normally wear insoles or orthotics and want to go without your orthotics for a holiday or on the beach then Birkenstock sandals are a good option. Birkenstocks have excellent arch support and will significantly support your feet and stop them rolling in as much.

Everyday wear

Birkenstocks are good for general use, walking, and beach wear. The sandals are very comfortable and they have excellent arch support which will help to distribute weight evenly over the foot and help stop foot pain.

Who should not wear Birkenstocks

If you have excessively flat feet you will probably find the Birkenstock arch support too high. This will be more of a problem if you have rigid flat feet rather than flexible feet.

What are Birkenstocks made of

The Birkenstock footbed is made of cork and natural latex and is moulded to the shape of a healthy foot. The footbed is lined with suede which adds to the softness, flexibility and comfort. The moulded heelcups help to stabilise the heels and absorb shock.

The leather, used in the upper part of many of the Birkenstock sandals, is thick yet very supple.

Correct Fit

Your foot should fit inside the edges of the sandal, a few mm at the front and a few mm at the back. Your toes and heel should not touch the rim of the sandals when standing.

The original Birkenstock foot bed is available in two widths, regular and narrow. Birkenstocks are meant to be roomy and they might feel large when you first try them on. They should never be worn too tight.

Birkenstock Styles

Birkenstock Classic - from fashionable styles in bright colours to the classic two strap Arizona. Classics have the original Birkenstock contoured footbed

Papillio - stylish sandals in colourful prints

Birkis - PU/PVA footwear in a range of colourful colours. Birkis have soft footbeds for extra comfort.
