Is there a difference between male and female Birkenstocks?
Most Birkenstock styles are unisex, such as the Arizona and Boston. The size range that a particular leather or colourway is offered in is the only indication of whether it is part of the women's or men's range; the sizing within these ranges is identical.
Some newer styles have been designed with slightly modified lasting for women's and men's ranges (For example: Highwood). There is only one unisex size chart so the foot length of a size will remain the same - a men's or a women's last is simply a slightly different proportioned upper. You will know if a style is a particular men's or women's design as it will be indicated in the name (usually 'W' or 'M' in the shoe name).
