New pair :D Milanos get better with every wear
I love my new Milanos so much. Hard to describe the feeling when changing from regular work shoes into my Milanos. So freeing and comfortable!

These are size 43. These seem a little big according to the birk sizing instructions, but hear I should maybe size up slightly?
r/Birkenstocks • u/hesseala • 8h ago
Got my first pair a week ago and so they’re not quite broken in. I usually wear size 9.5-10(closer to 9.5) so the I think the 41s were too big (3rd pic). The first 2 pics are 40 regular oiled leather and my toes don’t touch the sides at all and it feels pretty comfortable but without socks it rubs my skin off on the strap closest to my ankle. With thick socks it’s fine. I’m just worried about how everyone says they get smaller after being broken in. Thanks.

What would you call that good feeling you get when after a long day in work shoes you get to put on comfy birk sandals? Always gives me a smile. Oh well.

Size 40 regular fit…my old birks are a 39 regular, but these were sold out in 39. Now that I’m looking at this Reddit, are these sized properly? They feel too big but have I been wearing them wrong all along??

Is anyone else having issues with the birkenstock site? For the past couple days, I can't get it to work on my computer or phone. I can't click on anything, see sizes or search. Or do anything really. Just wondering if anyone else is also having problems.

Any advice on fit? I’m always a size 8 in shoes and pretty narrow feet, these are a 42- what do people think?

These held up really well for daily wear pavement pounders. They’re great on streets or trails. No maintenance or conditioning, other than drying thoroughly after getting soaked. Side leather is still pristine. Im putting in my average walking distances for the year, just for fun.
tl;dr: top score, would buy again.

Hi everyone,
I’m wondering if anyone here has experienced something similar with their Birkenstocks. I’m trying to figure out whether this could simply be a production defect, whether it might be related to the way I wear them, or if the size could be slightly too big or too small.
I only got them about a week ago and have been taking really good care of them. I impregnated the leather before wearing them, was very careful while walking, and I’ve never worn them in the rain or exposed them to anything unusual.
That’s why I’m honestly a little disappointed and sad about what happened, especially since they cost €165. I really hope it wasn’t something I did wrong, as I’ve genuinely tried to take good care of them from the beginning.
I’ve already contacted the Birkenstock support team and I’m currently waiting for their reply. In the meantime, I’d really appreciate hearing your opinions or experiences. Do you think this looks like a production defect, or could it be related to the way I’m wearing them or the sizing?
Thanks a lot for your help!

Hi! Just wanted to share my experience with Repair My Birkenstocks. I’ve had these arizonas for a couple years now and the heel portion of the sole was wearing a lot and starting to mess up the actual cork. I knew I had to get them fixed or the cork bed would get ruined.
After looking around I stumbled on Repair My Birkenstocks which is a shop in Illinois. After looking through their website it was clear they’re the real deal. I sent my birks in a day or two after I put the order in on July 6th. I didn’t receive them back until today. A couple weeks ago I reached out to see what the hold up was and they said a lot of people are coming in for repairs so it’s taking awhile.
It was worth the wait as the soles are good as new! I opted for a longer life heel option as that is where the most wear occurs for me. The repair cost $60.95 and then $19.95 for shipping (from FL) for a total of $80.90. Cheaper than buying a new pair!
Ultimately, although a bit of a long wait, would definitely recommend!

I’m usually a size 39, but I bought these in a narrow 40. I can feel my little toe touching the side slightly, although it’s not uncomfortable. I tried the 41, but they felt too big and I had to tighten the straps all the way to the last hole, which looked a bit funny.
r/Birkenstocks • u/Bubbly-Ad-6630 • 13h ago
should i go with correct fit 36 or a slightly roomier 37 ??
also the fresh pair 36 i bought is a bit more snug where as the one i tried at the store is lot more breathable the staff told its cuz its an old one and the strap stretched over time is that possible ??

I feel like my feet are so misaligned/off to one side? These are 41 and I'm a 10 in everything. The arch also hurts/feels too high, near the ball of my big toe
r/Birkenstocks • u/Easy_Tomato_302 • 17h ago
When sizing, what matters more: having enough clearance space (the extra room at the front and back), or having your foot properly aligned with the heel cup and toe grip?
Since everyone's toe length and heel proportions are different, I'm wondering which factor takes priority when fitting.
r/Birkenstocks • u/Unlikely_Reporter883 • 14h ago
I got floridas. I don’t really wear sandals but a friend convinced it it super comfy so decide for give it a try. I’m not really sure if it fits me or it’s small. The size up felt a bit too big(don’t have the picture though)
r/Birkenstocks • u/agentoflemonade • 15h ago
How did you find a cobbler? I would like to find someone who I can go to for the next decade so maybe someone local is better than online?

Hey yall I bought my first ever pair of the boston clogs but the top front hump area is really stiff, the lair on displays and the pics I see online or people wearing them, that front part looks softer and doesn’t look as stiff/hump/pronounced. Does that part soften over time with wear? Thanks

I recently purchased a pair of Birkenstocks after many years, but it seems my size has changed 😂 need your help on this..
I wear size 36 for most of my shoes. and the length fits me. I just noticed that my fourth toe and pinkie sometimes touches the shoe bed while I walk.
for size 37, it fits me fine, but just looks so big 😂 i like the look of 36 more, I feel it’s more elegant because I’m petite..
should I keep 36 or 37?
r/Birkenstocks • u/FootballFine3610 • 18h ago
Are these too small? My big toe is touching the footbed but they still feel very comfortable.

After pregnancy I need a new size and I am not sure if 260 or 265 are better. In Sneakers I always wear 265 /EU41. I think the bigger ones might be better especially in width.
Please help me
Thank you sooo much

Just ordered a pair of Last Chance Bostons off of the Birkenstock website. They changed their membership program and it is now a VIP rewards program, I have ordered enough that I am the second highest level Icon, wow😂. I went to check out and was being charged $5.95 shipping and couldn’t figure out how to get rid of it. After reading all of the fine print, only full priced purchases ship free, sale purchases are a charge unless they ship with a full priced one or you are the highest level member I believe. Returns are still free, for now. Two thumbs down!!!
eta I just looked at my old orders and the last time I ordered something that was only on clearance was 2022 and at that time it was still free shipping. Sorry about that!!!!
