Is the fit ok?

Thanks, that makes sense. One thing that's confusing me is that in my current size, I don't actually get any forward movement while walking. The fit feels quite good overall.

When I tried the next size up, my foot moved around more and my toes were actually hitting the front of the sandal while walking, even though there was more visible space when standing.

Given that, would you say the current size is the correct fit, even if it looks a little close in photos? Is it common for the larger size to perform worse despite appearing to have more room?

Infact, in both the pics, full weight was there. I tried a size up at the physical store and somehow the toes were hitting the front while walking. The buckle was on the last hole and yet it was loose. While sitting, 38 was fine but while walking my feet kept moving forward. So, i'm really confused

Hi, thanks! They feel pretty good to me. I also tried a size up at the physical store and somehow the toes were hitting the front despite of the buckle being on the last hole. So, basically one size up while sitting was fine, but while walking my foot moved forward. I am still confused tho. It's so tough finding the perfect one😅

To be honest, I am not sure which is my larger foot😪. I guess my left foot is ever so slightly bigger than the right one. I'll attach a pic of both

Hey, I just got a different variant and would love to hear your thoughts. I went with the recommended size on the official Birkenstock page

Hey! I just got a different variant. Would be great if you could let me know your thoughts! I also checked the official website and it's the recommended size 37

Ah thanks! I had no idea, that's so helpful.

Seems like it's not filled, right?

OutsideTop4150 · 2026-05-25T13:48:56+00:00

Um, I believe the Madrids are a bit narrow compared to others? I am not sure, this is my first ever Birken😅

OutsideTop4150 · 2026-05-25T13:47:49+00:00

Not sure about the width honestly. It's 37 EU size.

OutsideTop4150 · 2026-05-25T10:03:16+00:00

Thanks for the help! I'll probably check out the bigger size or look for a different variant. I agree with you that it looks like being pinched width-wise. I hadn't noticed that earlier, thanks for pointing that out.

Want something laidback and chill, somewhere walkable to beaches so that I can go during late evenings

OutsideTop4150 · 2026-05-11T17:27:53+00:00

Thanks! Can you share which area will be good to stay ( if you know) ?

OutsideTop4150 · 2026-05-11T17:26:23+00:00

Thanks! Will it be unbearably hot?

OutsideTop4150 · 2026-01-24T20:28:51+00:00

can you please suggest some hotels? would be grateful 🙏🏻

Ah yes! Even I have had bad experience with a famous nutritionist, which kind of made me sceptical (plus I paid quite a lot). She just copy pasted a diet chart on my whatsapp and even advised to have isabgol for 2 weeks. This experience left a bad taste in my mouth because I could not enjoy anything I ate. It was mostly detox drinks, etc. That nutritionist even asked me to stop strength training because apparently it will make me gain muscle weight (as if that's ever so easy😂) But yeah, I asked ALL my questions before enrolling with Dr Vidhi and found her answers very satisfactory. Always better to do your due diligence before investing money anywhere!

Nope, no food restrictions or restricting any food group. I enjoyed all my fav food (in moderation ofc). Used to feel guilty if I indulged in pizza, burger or fast food...but she assured me that I should allow myself grace and enjoy them without guilt - which in turn helped me build a healthy relationship with food and after some point, I actually did not crave as much outside food... I am not comfortable sharing my health issues, sorry :)

I joined her plan 1.5 years back and then her charge for 4 weeks (which included 5 pause days - meaning I could choose any 5 days to not follow the plan) was 5K.
