Birkenstock narrow

Has anyone with slim feet tried the narrow ones? I need some to walk from house to garden to driveway to pick up all the stuff the kids are leaving in the car and thought that BS could be great but when I tried them on before they were too wide. Are the narrow ones better? Do they give you a bit of support?

The narrow ones are actually the standard ones which are sold in places like office and what most people have. The regular ones should actually be called wide and are sold in far fewer places, although obviously on Birkenstocks website. the narrow ones aren’t narrow at all, they’re just normal, not sure if they’d ever suit for Someone with v narrow feet. I don’t know why Birkenstock size their shoes this way, it’s confusing

I bought a pair of the regular width ones as I though my feet aren't narrow, and they are very wide. I had to set the buckle at the narrowest setting and then it dig into my feet. Not a great success.

This is the really annoying thing about them, calling the wide ones regular and the standard ones narrow, leads people to get the wrong width. I have no idea why they’re labelled like that
