birkenstock width fitting?

[shelley72]

am just about to order some more, how do i know if my birkies that i have now are normal or wide fitting? i didnt realise that there was such a thing!
anyone know please?

I bought Birkenstocks in wide fitting when I was recovering from a major foot injury - so my foot still had some level of swelling. I tried them on recently and my foot was swimming in space. I'd say you need normal unless your feet are quite wide/pregnancy etc.

Shelley get yourself to TK Maxx and try some on. That's whewre I got mine

Just found this on their website:
"If you want to check the width of a pair of Birkenstocks you already own, you can tell by inspecting the foot bed where there is a small image of a foot - if it's filled in the shoe is a narrow fitting, and if it's an outline it's regular."
Hope it helps!

thank you iloveapples, i just have the outline so it must be regular fitting. and warmandwooly i will def try tk maxx first then. we have quite a small store so ours is a bit hit and miss, but worth a go!

Old thread but so hugely helpful to me. I was struggling with figuring out width fittings on Amazon. Silly me it's so obvious -?!
