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.

EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate) is a lightweight, waterproof, and shock-absorbent material used in some Birkenstock styles like the Arizona EVA and Gizeh EVA. It provides flexibility, cushioning, and comfort, perfect for the beach, pool or casual wear. EVA sandals feature the same contoured Birkenstock footbed design for support, just in a single moulded material.

To find your child’s correct shoe size, start by measuring their feet from heel to longest toe — always while they’re standing. Measure both feet (one is often slightly bigger) and go with the larger size. Then, use our Bstore kids’ size guide to match the measurement in centimetres to the right EU size. Shoes should have about a thumb’s width of space in front of the toes to allow for growth and movement. A well-fitted shoe means happy, healthy little feet!

The best way to wash kids’ shoes depends on the material. For most leather or suede styles, skip the washing machine — instead, wipe them clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For fabric or sport shoes, remove the laces and insoles, then hand wash in cool water and let them air dry. Avoid heat or dryers, as they can warp the shape. Regular cleaning keeps shoes looking fresh and helps them last longer (because let’s face it, kids are tough on shoes!).

At Bstore, kids’ shoes generally go up to a European size 39, depending on the brand. That’s roughly equivalent to a women’s size 8 or men’s size 6. Each brand — like Birkenstock, ECCO, and FRANKiE4 — may size a little differently, so it’s always best to check our size guide or individual product page for the most accurate fit.

A recovery sandal is designed to help your feet rest and rejuvenate after activity. Built with MBT’s advanced cushioning technology, it offers exceptional comfort that reduces stress on joints and muscles to support faster recovery.

Concave support cushions the arch to ease discomfort, and anti-microbial properties keep your feet fresh and odour-free. Together, these features create the perfect balance of comfort, hygiene, and performance — ideal for post-workout recovery or all-day wear.

You can wear recovery sandals for as long as they feel comfortable — typically 1–2 hours after intense activity, or throughout the day if you’re on your feet often. The goal is to let your feet rest while maintaining gentle support and proper alignment.
