Oiled Leather

Birkenstock Oiled Leather features an oily or waxy finish that's designed to acquire a unique distressed patina over time. Oiled Leather will pick up marks, scuffs and scratches as part of the distressing process, which will start to occur from the moment the product is produced. You can reduce the appearance of marks or buff them out with Beeswax Dressing and a clean cloth if desired.

Sustainable Cork

The Birkenstock cork footbed is legendary, not only for its comfort and support, though also for its sustainability. The cork is responsibly sourced from the outer layer of the cork oak tree. Sections of the thick bark are carefully removed without harming the tree, allowing it to regenerate and be re-harvested every 7-9 years. A single cork oak tree can produce 100 - 200 kg of cork in its lifetime!

Footbed Features

The Birkenstock Semi-Exquisite footbed delivers all the features you love in the Classic Footbed (raised footbed edge, toe grip bar, arch support, heel mould, deep heel cup, and plenty of toe room) with a premium leather footbed lining that has been colour matched to the leather upper. This leather lining replaces the usual suede or microfibre for a sleek, sophisticated finish.

Birkenstock Classic Fit Details

This Birkenstock runs true to size. We recommend sticking with your usual size and refer to the Size Guide if you are unsure.

This Birkenstock provides support features including longitudinal, metatarsal and transverse arch support, a heel cup and mold, and raised toe bar for basic orthotic support.

Birkenstock Classic Size Guide

How to find your size

Step 1

Stand on a level floor with your heel up against the wall or straight edge.

Step 2

Place a ruler or measuring tape on the floor under your foot or alongside it, with your heel at 0cm.

Step 3

Measure the length of your foot from your heel to the end of your longest toe (yes, even if it's your second toe).

Step 4

Measure both feet and go with the length of your longest foot if they are different.

Step 5

Add 10mm to your foot length to allow your foot room to move. This will give you the footbed length you need to find your size.

Step 6

Check out the size charts below to find your size in EU (all Birkenstock sizes are listed in EU).

Step 7

Measure the width of your foot across the broadest point. Compare your foot width measurement to the footbed width in your size to see if you will need a narrow or regular width. (If you are in between sizes, we recommend going for the larger size)

    Love my Birkenstock’s

    I gave myself a challenge to find some Birkenstock’s that were a little different and a bit more dressy than the Birkenstock’s I already own. This new purchase did the trick
