Yes — Birkenstock is particularly well-suited to wider feet. The brand offers both Regular and Narrow widths, and the cork-latex footbed moulds to the shape of your foot over time. Most styles are available in both widths; if in doubt, the Regular fit is recommended.

With proper care, a Birkenstock cork footbed can last for many years. Regular cleaning with a damp cloth and occasional use of cork sealant spray extends their life. The soles and straps can also be resoled or replaced — Birkenstock offers a repair service through authorised stockists.

Birkenstock uses their own European sizing. Generally they run true to size — but we recommend going by foot length measurement rather than usual shoe size. Their sizing can differ from typical UK trainer sizing, so always check the Birkenstock size chart before ordering.
