Just a little advice if you are stepping on the toe bar your Birks are too big. I noticed they were a tad too big, not much, when you were showing the space. There should be space from heel to edge and toes to edge, but your gaps were a little much. Only need 5mm in the back and 10mm from the big toe in the front. You should not feel the toe bar at all when walking other than using it to grip with your toes slightly, but there should be no pressure being put on the toe bar in a properly fitted Birkenstock sandal.
I have the right size, it was fitted for me in a Birkenstock shop by their employee and with their charts. Depending on how your foot looks, Birkenstock may not work for everyone.
I would agree with you. If your toes are on top of the toe bar, it’s not a proper fit. It wouldn’t be the first time a shoe salesperson was wrong. Also, depending on size, the next step down could have been a big jump which would have made it too small. Also, Birkenstocks are easily resoled. Finally, those sandals need some cork sealer applied from time to time.
Maybe i should get these for my big guy... he likes to have his toes out but no sandal can handle him. They all break. Hopefully these will last a year!
Another thing to point out, stepping on Birkenstocks can and most often will be a painful experience 💀 Both my parents have several pairs and I can't tell you the amount of times I stepped on them, filling my brain with a sort of pain comparable to that of stepping on Lego 💀
Obe of the best reviews I ever watched
The bridge under my toes was super uncomfortable for me. So one day I sanded it down with a rotary tool and now they work wonderfully.

They should I think :)
Are these the oiled leather?
This is not oiled no
These shoes can be repaired by any cobbler. For example, the soles can be replaced with more durable material.
Yes, however a cobbler can be pretty expensive tbh, at least here
@@GMODISM I plan on replacing my own soles as required. I already own a heat gun and can purchase contact cement and more durable rubber soles.

Haha yes they have hard edges that I accidentally stepped on myself XD
I wished they could've put a hard sole on it for durability
true
