Find the right Birkenstock size
To find the right size so that your new Birkenstock sandals fit your foot perfectly, it is important to choose the correct length. The foot needs 2-3 millimetres of space both in front of the toes and behind the heel. Neither toes nor heel should touch the edge of the sandal. You must therefore not step on the edges of the Birkenstock sandal with either your heel or your toes.
To be sure which size to choose, you can measure your foot. You do this by placing your foot on a piece of paper and drawing around your foot. Then you can measure your foot (the drawing) from toe to heel and see in the chart below which size you should choose.

240 mm > Size 37

260 mm > Size 40
265 mm > Size 41
