May I ask what is the best type for Flatfeet like me? Who is a little bit overweight too. And has a sweaty feet! But noy smelly! Everytime I wear regular slippers my heels hurt and I have excessive feet sweating issue😢😢
I just subscribed. Im happy I've found you. I have several pairs of birkenstocks, and of course, i have one pair that I'm partial to that can not be replaced. Now i know where to go to have them repaired. Thank you for the thorough explanation here.
Thank you! A couple of years ago I bought some Birkenboots and the seller could not tell me the width. The order was for wide, the box said regular, and the website had regular narrow and regular wide. I didn't know if they were narrow boots that would never fit, or wide boots that simply needed to be broken in. No one could tell me how to read the size from the foot bed markings. So today, two years later, for the first time, I know that they are 'regular' or 'regular wide' because the foot is an outline. Thanks, and yes, they did stretch out.
I purchased my first Birkenstock yesterday. Got the Boston soft footbed, oiled leather, regular/ wide. I wore them for a couple or few hours indoors to start breaking them in. I have wide feet and the lateral arch is not comfortable. Would this stretch out for me or are my feet too wide for these Birkenstocks?
Understand that company has been sold. Interesting to see if excellence/quality is maintained OR the cost accountants takeover and brand goes the way of so many other excellent brands.
I've been reading about people complaining the quality became worse. Birkenstocks are known to last forever. You should know! You have the old and new ones in front of you. Did it change? I personally only have new models, the complete bold collection (Arizona, Boston, Milano) that I am very proud of, Kyoto and also Naples, I made some videos about them on my channel. So I have nothing to compare... I can say the Birkoflor Milano sole is done in just some month of wearing them... bought them in summer. Wore them a couple of times and now its winter... sole also lost its profile on several spots. But still feels nice.
Sometimes, people are just looking for something to complain about. I haven't seen any more problems recently than I have in the past. I am still a true believer in the brand.
What is a footbed number H28061 / H28062A ? They are very thin in the front. Which current boot is built on the classic footbed? I.e. which of the Birkenboots are most like the Arizona sandals? No more high arches!? That is a shame.
@@CustomMadeByMichelangelo It appears from Rose Anvil channel that the Marton boots are the sandal with a moccasin stuck on top. However, I don't see them on the Birk website. Hey, I bet your shop could do that too.
Curious about the smooth leather covered footbeds? I've had two-- one was slick (and annoying), the other was a pluyayo (sp?) which was softer, a slight slight wrinkle/supple texture, and far less annoying. I'd love to understand those better, in particular how to spot the kinder ones and skip the annoying ones.
The smooth leather ones tend to be slippery. They are called EXQUISITE top covers. Sometimes, the cork is covered with the same smooth leather. The suede top covers tend to grab your feet more. . Personally, I prefer suede top covers.
The micro fiber top cover wears well, but I do not have enough analytics to determine it's longevity vs the suede. In my gut, I'd have to say that the suede lasts longer. Comfort wise it is similar.
I don’t know what my shoes size is in eu but I know the a 44 was too big and wide with no support when I tried a pair of Arizona in the store recently.
They changed the names a little while ago. They used to be Narrow and Medium. Now they are Medium/Narrow and Regular/Wide. Us old guys who have been doing it since 1980 still call them by the original widths, sorry for any confusion. Thanks for watching and liking my videos.
Your shop is very beautiful, thank you for this very useful information I am about to buy my first pair soon!
Thanks, that is just my home shop 400 square feet. My actual ship is 4800 square feet.
I’ve been frustrated when I tried to look for a pair of Birkenstocks that were narrow with high arch support. I will be in touch soon! Thank you!
What size are you looking for? Euro size please.

Super
An excellent and informative video.
Well done !
Thank you, we have one coming out on soles soon too.
What an informational video. Thank you Sir!
What an educational video of footbeds! It's good to know because I have another pair of Berks to send you. The classic Arizona from the 90's.

Hard to tell without seeing your feet in the Birkenstocks. That cork does mold to your feet

So far so good. We will have to watch and see what the future holds. I hope everything will be consistent wit the past.

My Mom had Birkinstocks when I was a kid , no wonder she liked them so much, what's the micro wave for ?
It is a convection oven. Watch the video on Fakenstocks and find out, LOL

Can you give me your opinion on the vegan microfiber sole is it as durable and comfortable as the others? Thank you for the video which helps a lot😊

@@CustomMadeByMichelangelo Thank you ! 😉
Which bed works best for plantar fascia
Theoretically, all of them, but personally, I believe, the High Arch or Soft Footbeds will provide more relief.
This is nice, which country are you from?
USA
Can you modify a pair of London Birkenstocks?
Yes, what would you like done?
@@CustomMadeByMichelangelo I need a really high arch narrow London. I wear a size 10 in red wing dress boots.
I don’t know what my shoes size is in eu but I know the a 44 was too big and wide with no support when I tried a pair of Arizona in the store recently.

👏👏👏 Bravo👏👏👏
My foot measures wide for rollerskates (reidell) regular for most sneakers but my Birkenstocks were narrows weird!
Like dress sizes, they all run differently.
WOW~~~!!!!
Their website says Regular / Wide and Medium / Narrow for their classifications. Maybe that's what you meant? At either rate, I still like your video!
