The Starling

Velvet, Suede, Crystal:

The Starling is our most universal fit and comes in many colors and fabrics. True to size, some find it slightly wide so we recommend narrow feet size down as well as those between sizes. Please note, velvet has a little give while suede fits more snugly in order to mold to the shape of your foot over time.

Cable Knit:

While the Starling is our most universal fit, these cozy sweaters for your feet are slightly more snug. The cable knit is super soft and will mold to your foot with wear. We recommend sizing up if you have a wider foot or are in between sizes.

The Heron

The Heron fits true to size and is the preferred flat for narrow and medium-width feet. Slightly slim through the toe and heel, in between sizes should size up. Please note, velvet has a little give while suede fits more snugly in order to mold to the shape of your foot over time.

The Blackbird

The Blackbird fits true to size, especially in length. She’s a little more narrow in the toe so we recommend sizing up if you’re in-between sizes. Please note, both suede and calf hair fit more snugly in order to mold to the shape of your foot over time.

The Vesper

The Vesper fits true to size, like a glove. The Vesper is lined in breathable twill, which results in a lighter-than-air loafer that molds to your foot for a sock-like fit. And yes, they still have the 7-layer comfort you love. We recommend sizing up if you have a wide foot or are between sizes.

The Goldfinch

The Goldfinch fits true to size, all the way to the tip of the chic pointed toe. Every shade of velvet, suede, and leather has a very similar fit across the board. We recommend sizing up if you have a wide foot or are between sizes.

The Swift

Leather:

This Swift fits true to size if you plan on wearing them with socks (she loves a no-show sock). Without socks or with a more narrow foot, you may want to try a half size down. 

Suede:

This Swift fits true to size. The suede will mold to your foot so we recommend skipping socks or wearing no-show socks.

The Cardinal

Seashell, Ice, Mica:

This Cardinal fits true to size and is made to wear with socks. If the fit feels loose, we recommend a thicker sock. If you have a narrow foot, you may want to try a half size down.

Floral Plaid, Navy Shimmer, Orbit, Shearling:

This Cardinal runs a little small, so we recommend going a half size up. We designed the non-shearling styles to wear with socks but If it’s lined in shearling, feel free to skip the socks. If the fit feels loose, we recommend a thicker sock or tightening the laces.

FIT FAQ

Does fabric matter? Yes, velvet has more give and a roomier fit while leather, suede, and calf hair are more snug at first then mold to your foot over time.


Do you wear socks with Birdies? Our flats, slides, and slippers are designed to be worn without a sock but it’s your preference. We recommend socks for most of our sneakers.


How do the flats fit? They’re made to fit snug, so we recommend wearing them without socks.


How do the sneakers fit? They have a roomier fit to move with your every step. We recommend wearing them with socks.


How do the slides fit? They fit true to size so if you like a little length at the back, go up half a size.
