But it drives me bonkers that Nordstrom only stocks the narrow size. </p> <p>ETA: I find it amusing that some big fancy designers are doing their versions, for a lot lot more dosh&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-birkenstocks-still-in#post-2182923 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 16:33:09 +0000 Greyscale 2182923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sizing is tricky, but the default Birkenstocks are actually a wide fit. They also come in narrow that is more like a standard women’s fit. The default ones have an open outline drawing of a little foot on the footbed, and the narrow ones have a solid foot drawing. Websites aren’t always clear about which one they’re selling.</p> <p>I’m a 6.5 women’s with short toes and wide feet, and the 36 regular is good. Their size charts say I should be a 37 (my usual euro size) and that would probably fit too. So I would guess you want a 38 regular. They’re supposed to be bigger than your feet, with room for your toes, so they might seem too big at first. I’d try a few sizes if possible. </p> <p><a href="https://www.birkenstock.com/us/us-service-fittingguide.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.birkenstock.com/us.....guide.html</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-birkenstocks-still-in#post-2182914 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 15:47:47 +0000 Helena 2182914@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I will never give up my Birkies </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-birkenstocks-still-in#post-2182874 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 13:38:54 +0000 suzieq 2182874@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m on team side part.

Gen X are my older cousins (the one after boomers, our parents) and i'm a Millennial in between Gen X and Gen Z. </p> <p>As for Berkies, they've been in for a loooong time. Maybe the youngsters (Gen Z) have just noticed they exist. </p> <p>I think things like Berkie's, like Dr Martens and even uggs (though really can't stand those) are going to be "classics" in that they'll be in always...though not necessarily classics as in chic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-birkenstocks-still-in#post-2182844 Sat, 27 Mar 2021 10:06:27 +0000 Karie 2182844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Birkies are a classic!
