Do these shoes mold to my feet? The Birkenstock footbed is made of resilient cork and latex that is precisly molded to create the best possible enviroment for your feet. As you wear them, they actually adapt to your feet-and vice versa-which means that the more time you spend in Birkenstocks the more comfortable they become. Why do the straps feel so loose? Shouln''t they be tighter? Birkenstocks are meant to be worn loosely. Support comes from the footbed not tightly secured straps. Wearing them loosly allows your feet to move naturally. It also improves circulation. Backstraps worn to tightly push the feet forward, preventing them from resting naturally in the footbeds. Why do the soles feel so firm? Is there a break in period? Some people find Birkenstocks immediately comfortable. For others, it takes a few hours a day for a week or two to break them in. Although the shoes may feel ridgid at times, remember that the firm support is essential for the orthotic benifits of Birkenstocks. They will become more flexible with wear. The uppers will become more supple and the footbeds will adjust slightly to your feet. If your feet are unaccustomed to the contour footbed, start gradually. Wear your Birkenstocks no more than 1-2 hours a day for 7-14 days.

I just wanted to let you know that you have gained a new faithful customer. I recently ordered a pair of London''s. I was very pleased with the person who took my order-his advice washelpful. And the 30 day return policy which is longer than many places. I''ve worn birkenstocks for many years, however after receiving back surgery, they are the only shoes that my feet will comfortably wear. I was introduced to Birks thru a friend 10 years ago at college. The sandals are BEST ones ever. I can have my feet relaxed, even standing long. They have an unique perfect arch that I have been searching for a different brand kind of shoes. There''snone shoetrees that I can find one. Also, Birks are great for a very humid climate, even on a crowded bus. They are very tough and capable to last for decades as long as they''re not get soaked. My husband refused to own Birks due to the cost. I got him one and he said,"WOW". Now, I have 4 pairs in order to get them matched to my wardrobe. Hi, I just ordered 2 pairs shoetrees of shoes (boston and milano) on Friday afternoon and I received them on Saturday afternoon! I just couldn''t believe it. Keep up the good work!!! After knee surgery 6 years ago and daily swelling since.
