are my birkenstocks too big?

When your heel is all the way back in the heel cup, your toes should naturally grab the toe grip. If you need to slide your foot forward to grab the toe grip with your toes, the size may be too long. You do not want a big space behind your heel. If there is, then you are not getting the support out of the heel cup.

They seem to run true to size. Gap and Old Navy run big for me but DKNY tends to fit really well in the size I always wear.

From my experience with the brand, their shoes always seem to run true to size and there is no exception with Rockstud slingbacks. I have in my collection both Rockstud and non-Rockstud heels as well as flats from Valentino and I have never had to resort to purchasing a larger size than my standard 37.5.

BIRKENSTOCK offers most of its models in two widths: a standard width for normal feet, and a narrow width for smaller feet. In addition, many models are adjustable. You can use the straps and buckles on BIRKENSTOCK sandals and shoes to adjust them individually to fit your foot.

Member. IMO, the sizes run slightly large! I've got rather broad feet (although they're still on the small side) and I find myself needing to include an additional isole into my Tod's driving loafers.

I would say go with your size that you wear in uggs and if you don't have any, go a size down than your regular size of what you wear in sandals. ... The size is just like Ugg's original boots size, they run big, so I suggest you get a size smaller... but love them very comfortable....

Birki's & Papillio are two names of brands within the Birkenstock family of brands. ... Birkenstock uses what is known as the Classic Footbed. It has a fairly pronounced amount of arch support, which is great, but some prefer an arch system which is not so pronounced.

Birkenstock has two foot beds. There is the classic, (some call it regular) then there is the soft foot bed. They are virtually the same as far as supports, the main difference is that the soft foot bed has a layer of padding in between the layers of the foot bed so it is softer and more cushiony then the classic.

Hi Kate, Rothy's fit wide feet wonderfully. The knit structure gives and does not cut into your foot like other shoes. If your foot is wider than a "B" we recommend ordering up a half size.

"These are sandals that can be worn all day for walking while traveling, as well as at work." "The straps are all fully padded to help prevent painful blisters and hot spots." "Birkenstocks are highly favored by their many converts for city walking, to the point where some Birkenstock-lovers wear no other shoes."

The shoes should be snug, but not overly tight. It's important to have a snug fit because cycling shoes tend to stretch over time. The fasteners should not pinch your foot, and the inside should keep your heel comfortable against the hard sole. When you walk in the shoe, it should not slip or have any wiggle room.

Some people with plantar fasciitis or heel spur vigorously recommend Birkenstocks for recovery. This is one of the original Birkie styles with an orthotic-like footbed of cork and latex to comfort your feet. They are unisex and come in many colors and materials, in narrow and regular widths.

I'm a 7.5, but in Madewell shoes, I size down to a 7 and they fit perfectly. I would recommend sizing down 1/2 size because had I purchased these in a 7.5, I would have had too much extra room in the back of the heel and the shoe would have slid off frequently, plus the leather will stretch in time.

Tieks should be snug but not tight. If you feel any kind of tightness, I recommend walking around your house in them for a week before deciding whether you want to keep them or not. One major thing to look out for is any kind of uncomfortable rubbing that turns your feet red.

Chukkas don't fit very snugly like a regular shoe does, particularly the two eyelet variety, but they stay on your feet just as well. You need to get used to them, and probably don't need much if anything in the way of pads.

How Do Tieks Fit? Ideally, your Tieks should fit comfortably around your foot without being too snug or feeling as though they might slip off. If your Tieks arrive and they feel way too tight or way too loose, contact customer service and request an exchange.

Yup they are true to size. When I buy shoes from Zara they fit perfectly. Not really, they are a bit smaller (at least in my own experience), but that depends on how wide your feet are. I suggest you try the 6.5 size instead of 6 just in case.
