About Us
Frank and Toni Budworth
Co-Owner’s of Birkenstock Midtown
We’ve owned a Birkenstock Specialty store for 33 of our 38 years of marriage. As a family owned business, we feel privileged to offer footwear that may improve the quality of life to the wearer. More than ever, we recognize the importance of the Birkenstock brand to provide the best comfort, casual footwear. As independent retailers, we have selected other brands to offer our customers additional options in comfort and style. We know the value of properly fitting shoes, so we try to have plenty of associates available to help customers with that task. As owners, a lot of our time in the store is spent supporting and educating our staff, and we also enjoy working with our customers. The time spent with guests helps us fine tune our selection to their needs. If you ever have a question or suggestion, please don’t hesitate to bring it to us.We invest a lot of thought about the best way to serve you and we hope that you feel welcome in our store. Don’t be surprised if we break into song when we hear a favorite tune, share pictures of our grandchildren or sit down to listen to a story of yours.

Hi,
The sole of my Birks have become pretty damp and dark caused from the wear of them. Is there a way to fix this or would I need to buy a new pair?
admin November 18, 2019 at 5:19 pm
Hi Esmeralda,
This is very common with the suede liners, make sure your feet are dry before putting them on & try not to wear them too many days in a row to let them dry. The best way to fix this is to use a damp cloth to wipe the footbed out to remove any surface dirt and thanlet them air dry and brush the footbeds with a suede brush.
Hope this helps, please let us know if you have any more questions.

Do you charge for cork sealing?
admin November 8, 2019 at 1:09 pm
Hi Sandra!
We offer cork resealing at no charge for our customers; we do recommend keeping them overnight to fully dry.
Hope this helps,
Michael

Do you offer reconditioning services? What is the approximate cost to redo the cork?
admin August 6, 2018 at 1:10 pm
Hi Carol,
We no longer do repairs in house. I’ve emailed you over our list of cobblers that could take care of that for you!
Thanks,

I’ve been a customer of Toni & Franks for years and have purchased many Birkenstock’s & other products from their old shop and I believe it to be true, that their store is one of the best in our area that provides the best selection of comfort shoe’s; with a knowledgeable friendly staff providing wonderful personal customer service. I have a bad back & am diabetic, so shoes are a very critical part of my life. I value a great product; with good selection; fair prices; and more than anything else good service ensuring the fit & comfort of each shoe. In addition, Frank & Toni & their Associates at Birkenstock Midtown treat every customer as though we are part of the extended family. I appreciate having a local shop to go to so I can actually see, touch, feel & try on my shoes to ensure their fit, color & comfort. I also prefer dealing with returns or any other problems in person rather than a hassle online & shipping back & forth.

Hello!
Do you have in store Gizeh Birko-Flor Black in size 6?
I live in Nevada city and am trying to find a place to try these on before I buy them!
Thank you!
admin February 26, 2018 at 2:31 pm
Hello Marissa,
We do have that shoe in a 36, which usually fits a 6 – 6 1/2. Should we hold that for you?
Thank you!

Do you carry comfortable walking shoes for women,,,,,,,waterproof also in EE sizes for less than $150?
admin November 6, 2017 at 6:53 pm
Hi Mary Jo!
The first thing that comes to mind is a style called “Revsavor” and it’s made by Aravon. It comes in EE width, is waterproof and is priced at $150. The other one we have is made by Keen, and the syle is “Terradora” for $130 but is not quite a EE width.
Thanks,

STEVEN PRICE October 15, 2017 at 9:55 pm
I would like to come by and see your store. I am a fan of both Birkenstock and Naot, but have found that both are a bit over-priced in a number of markets. Until last year I was able to purchase my Birk Arizonas and Bostons for $70 and $80, but the store closed – retirement and noone to buy the business. Naot is Naot – the best. Can you tell me what kind of price range you have – I was unable to find anything on your web site. Thanks.
admin October 20, 2017 at 4:33 pm
Hi Steven,
Birkenstock has several different price points on their shoes starting at $34.95 for a non-leather sandal. All of our current styles from Birkenstock and Naot will remain at the suggested retail price unless they are discontinued, of which we typically have a small selection. We do have a storewide sale in January and July every year where you may find the largest amount of “Clearance” items from both Naot and Birkenstock. If you’d like to be on our mailing list we are happy to notify you whenever we do have discounts offered.
Thank you,

I’m looking for men’s Odessa black do you have any
admin August 14, 2017 at 10:48 am
Hi Stanley, sorry for the delayed response. The Odessa is a style that Birkenstock is not currently producing.
The closest style we currently have is the “Milano”.
