Most sandals are made to last one, maybe two seasons at the most. Birkenstocks, on the other hand, are made to last a long time. Quality materials give Birkenstocks durability and long lasting good looks. The reparability of footwear extends the life of the shoes, making this investment even more sound. With proper care and maintenance you can make your Birkenstocks last for years. Birkenstocks are an investment for your feet. Why do Birkenstocks look wide? They look wider than most shoes because the design follows the natural shape of the foot. Many hoe styles feature a narrow toe area, which not only compresses the toes, but throws the foot out of alignment. The shape of Birkenstocks guides the toes and feet into correct alignment so the weight is evenly distributed and good posture is possible. Will Birkenstocks make my feet spread? shoes will not give your feet a new shape! Feet that have been squeezed into traditional shoes may resume their original natural shape, depending on the flexibility of your feet.

The Birko-Felt is over 1/4 of an inch thick, so it''s solid and tough and won''t easily tear or discover holes. The footbed and footbed liners are identical to the Non-Leather Alternatives line. The PVC sole is a stunning white with an ordinary pattern: It''s thinner and less robust than the normal Birkenstock sole, but it feels harder and more rugged.The Birkenstock Footbed is covered with a high quality suede liner. The cork and latex mould and the suede liner are able to absorb moisture which helps to provide a very healthy footclimate and enhanced wearing comfort considerably. For hippies, granolas, tree-huggers and birkenstockshoe earth friends, the shoe of choice for over thirty years is the Birkenstock sandal. This soft-sole sandal with he moldable footbed has been the premiere in orthopedic footwear since the 18th century, and it maintains a strong toehold over 200 years later. The Birkenstock family of Germany created their first shoe business in, and by, the contoured insole would change the name of footwear forever. The specially designed insole resembled a footprint, and it would mold to the foot in a natural state. The curved insole would evenly distribute bodyweight for an orthopedically advanced support. The footwear would have remained a little-known secret had it not been for a simple housewife traveling Europe in. Experiencing foot fatigue and pain from her travels, someone suggested she try the local shoe. She did, and became suchabeliever in the benefits that she imported them to America. Lucky for her, the hippie movement birkenstockshoe was swinging into action, and Birkenstocks became the only shoe to wear (if they wore any at all).
