How to adjust the straps for a perfect fit.

Start by opening the straps and placing your foot on the open footbed. Then adjust the strap at the front so that there’s about 5 mm of space between the strap and your foot. Now the second strap: leave about 10 mm of space. How does it feel? Just right? Too tight? Too loose? Just adjust the straps as necessary.

New pair? Time to break them in!

Give your feet time when you’re breaking in new BIRKENSTOCKS. Try them on at home and get used to the footbed. The cork-latex-footbed will get softer and more flexible with time. Start by wearing your new pair for up to 2 hours – and then gradually wear them for longer.
