The popular
Birkenstock Gizeh sandals
are thongs made with the utmost care. We have meticulously
tested and adjusted our Birkenstock thong sandal until it
was best suited to the foot's anatomy. By the way: prolonged
wearing of Birkenstock
fashion shoes that are too narrow can result
in your toes being painfully constricted. Birkenstock's
thong sandal helps return your toes to their natural position.
We therefore recommend that you choose the normal width
when selecting a model. The narrow width footbed has been
designed specifically for very thin feet. Birkenstock's
two-width system means that you'll always find the perfect
fit. Try Birkenstocks out for yourself! Other Birkenstock
sandals are the Birkenstock Fuji
and the Birkenstock
licensed Karala, both for women. For more options

Birkenstock Quality: Quality is our top priority. For our
leather models we use only cow leather which is 2.8 -3 millimeters
thick. As it is unsplit, all valuable qualities such as
the typical surface structure, toughness and longevity of
this natural material are preserved. Leather of this thickness
is not readily available everywhere. Due to the particular
breed and husbandry conditions of the cattle as well as
climatic conditions, only leather originating from Central
Europe meets our criteria. In addition, we only buy from
tanneries which comply with the strictest environmental
regulations. Moreover, Birkenstock's strict quality controls
guarantee that only pieces of leather without any defects
are used. Pieces having cicatisation caused by mosquito
or tick bites or thorn scratches are sorted out.
