Birkenstock Unisex Arizona FAQ
-
Is Arizona Birkenstock for men?
The Birkenstock Arizona is considered unisex. Its classic two-strap design makes it suitable for both men and women. The focus is on comfort and functionality rather than specific gender aesthetics contributing to its unisex appeal.
-
Should I size up or down in Birkenstock Arizona?
Generally, Birkenstocks fit true to size. But there are a few things to consider:
-
- Birkenstock's footbed is designed to have a slight gap between your heel and the back of the footbed.
- The straps are adjustable for a customised fit.
- If you have particularly narrow or wide feet, consider choosing a narrow or regular fit, since Birkenstock offers different widths.
- If you're between sizes, it's often recommended to size up. This is because your feet tend to swell slightly throughout the day.
- It is important to remember that Birkenstocks can feel a bit different at first as they mould to your feet over time.
-
What does EVA mean in Birkenstock?
EVA stands for Ethylene Vinyl Acetate. It's a lightweight, flexible, and shock-absorbent material used in many Birkenstock models, particularly the Arizona EVA.
Key benefits of EVA sandals:
-
- Lightweight:
- Waterproof
- Comfortable
- Easy to clean
-
Are Birko-Flor straps leather or synthetic?
Birko-Flor is a synthetic material. It's Birkenstock's own trademarked material designed to mimic the look and feel of leather without the need for animal products. It's known for being durable, easy to clean, and comfortable.
-
What is the difference between Birkenstock's soft footbed and regular?
The primary difference between Birkenstock's regular footbed and soft footbed lies in the cushioning and comfort level.
The regular footbed is firm and supportive. Its arch support contours to the natural shape of the foot over time. Ideal for those who prefer a firmer feel and want maximum arch support.
A soft footbed provides more cushioning. It features an extra layer of foam for increased comfort and shock absorption. The added cushioning allows a quicker break-in period. Suitable for those who prefer a softer and more cushioned feel.
-
Why are my Birkenstock sandals uncomfortable?
While Birkenstocks are renowned for their comfort, it's possible to experience discomfort when you get a new pair. Here are some common reasons:
-
- Break-in period: Birkenstocks are designed to mould to your feet over time. The break-in period can take a few weeks.
- Incorrect size: If your Birkenstocks are too tight or too loose, they won't be comfortable.
- Foot type: People with particularly high arches or flat feet might find the standard Birkenstock footbed less comfortable.
- Arch support: The arch support in Birkenstocks can be quite pronounced, which might take some time to adjust to.
- Material: Different materials (leather, cork, EVA) have varying levels of cushioning and flexibility.
-
What is the difference between regular and medium Birkenstock?
Birkenstock has two primary widths when it comes to shoe sizing: Regular (M) and Narrow (N).
-
- Regular (M) is usually the standard width and is suitable for most people with average to slightly wider feet.
- Narrow (N) is designed for people with narrow-shaped feet.
