How does the Almina differ from the Arizona?

The Almina has a backstrap and a small heel, and its two straps are shaped for a dressier look. The Arizona is flat with no backstrap and a wider, more casual fit.

Does the footbed need breaking in?

Yes. The cork-latex footbed starts firm and molds to your foot over a few weeks of wear.

How does the Almina fit?

It is listed as medium/narrow width, so it suits average to slim feet. Wide feet may find it tight.

What is the upper made of?

Nubuck leather, a brushed leather with a soft, matte surface. It needs occasional care to stay clean.

Can I wear it for travel and long walks?

Yes, once broken in. The arch support and backstrap suit walking, though the firm footbed takes getting used to.

What is the outsole made of?

EVA, a lightweight foam that keeps the sandal light but wears faster than rubber.

About the Birkenstock Women's Almina Nubuck

The Almina is a women's two-strap sandal in nubuck leather with a backstrap and a small heel, built on Birkenstock's contoured cork-latex footbed. The soft nubuck upper and adjustable straps give a closer, dressier look than the classic Arizona, while the EVA outsole keeps it light. It suits shoppers who want Birkenstock arch support in something that reads casual or dressed up. Against flat Birkenstock styles it adds a lifted heel and a secured back; against fashion sandals it trades cushioning for firmer, moldable support.
