Choosing the Right Birdies for Wide Feet

A Perfect Fit for Wide Feet? The Birdies Wide Feet Shoe Review

Bianca Gates and Marisa Sharkey, two enterprising mothers, founded Birdies Shoes in San Francisco in 2015. They were weary of attending home events in uncomfortable footwear and not being able to entertain guests in style, so they created a unique shoe category. The designers created Birdies to be fashionable, cozy, and supportive, combining the qualities of a sneaker, slipper, and versatile flat. The brand's objective is to offer chic footwear that is perfect for entertaining at home then they later developed more styles including the adorable bootie. Often mistyped as BRIDIE shoes, note the spelling. So are birdies good for wide feet? We hope that you enjoy this Birdies Wide Feet Review post. 

Italian craftsmen initially crafted Birdies shoes using high-quality leather and suede to provide both comfort and style, which quickly gained a following among celebrities and fashion bloggers alike. With a soft, suede upper and a supportive footbed, Birdies come in a wide range of colors and styles, catering to various preferences. These shoes are perfect for day-to-day wear, as well as for special events.
