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.

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.
