Arch SupportEveryday ComfortMedium - Soft FeelLightweightVersatile Styling

The Birkenstock Gary is that easygoing lace-up that proves comfort and style can go hand in hand while still giving you all the foot support you expect from Birkenstock. The contoured cork-latex footbed keeps your arches supported and your heel steady, helping your feet stay comfortable through full, busy days. Soft suede or leather uppers wrap the foot without any stiffness, and the lightweight sole keeps everything feeling cushioned and flexible. It’s the perfect “everyday sneaker-meets-shoe” — simple, comfy and effortlessly wearable.

Features:

  • Anatomically shaped cork-latex footbed for natural support
  • Deep heel cup + roomy toe box for stability and comfort
  • leather upper 
  • Lace-up design for a customised fit
  • Lightweight, flexible sole for easy all-day wear
  • Casual, unstructured silhouette perfect for everyday outfits

The Birkenstock Gary runs true to size and feels a lot like a classic sneaker, just with that extra hit of cork-latex support underfoot. Give the leather and footbed a few days to soften and settle as they warm to your stride.

It comes in Regular (wider) and Narrow (slimmer) footbeds, and around 80–90% of Australians fit Regular width. If you’re between sizes, size up. The suede versions relax a little more than smooth leather, so if you plan to wear thicker socks stick with your regular size.

A short break-in period is completely normal with Birkenstocks. When the fit is right, you should have around 5mm of space at both the toe and heel. That little bit of room lets your foot move naturally in the footbed as you walk, so everything feels comfortable and supported with each step.

Shoes must be returned within 30 days of purchase, unworn or in their original condition. Sale can be exchanged/store credit only.

The key to comfy thong sandals is support and fit. Choose a pair with built-in arch support and soft, flexible straps that don’t rub between the toes. Breaking them in gradually helps too, wear them for short periods at first. For extra comfort, look for cushioned footbeds or premium materials like leather.

The best hiking sandals for women combine traction, cushioning and durability. Look for contoured footbeds that support your arches, adjustable straps for a secure fit, and sturdy soles with plenty of grip. Waterproof materials are a bonus for creek crossings or beach trails. Brands like ECCO and Birkenstock are known for hiking-ready comfort that still looks great off the trail.

The signature Birkenstock footbed is what sets Birkenstock apart. Crafted from natural cork and latex, it’s designed to contour to the shape of your foot over time, giving you custom support and comfort that gets better with wear. Each footbed features arch support, a deep heel cup, and a roomy toe box for natural alignment. Whether you’re shopping at Bstore or browsing a Birkenstock sale for your next pair, you can always count on that iconic comfort that supports every step.

Birkenstock uses European sizing, with regular and narrow widths for the best fit. Check Bstore’s size guide to find your ideal match — and remember, a proper fit means ultimate comfort.

Wipe with a damp cloth and use cork sealer to prevent cracks. Keep them away from extreme heat for longer life. Find cork care products at Bstore to keep your sandals looking fresh.

A good pair of men’s sandals should fit snugly without pinching or slipping. Your heel should sit comfortably within the footbed, and there should be about a finger’s width of space in front of your toes. Straps should feel secure but not tight. If you’re between sizes, go up slightly for a better fit, especially if you plan on walking long distances or wearing them with socks.

Men’s sandals are more versatile than ever. Slide them on with tailored shorts and a linen shirt for summer weekends, or team them with chinos and a tee for a relaxed, smart-casual look. Leather sandals add polish, while sporty or cushioned styles work well for off-duty days. Keep colours classic- think black, tan or olive and you’re set for any occasion.
