Cordners' Unisex footwear collection brings together styles that work for any wearer — regardless of gender, anyone can wear them. Birkenstock sandals, Crocs clogs, Dubarry country boots, Blundstone Chelsea boots, Vans skate shoes, Biomecanics children's shoes — these are styles that have transcended traditional gender categories and now appeal across the board.
Many of our most popular unisex brands have specific style heritages. Birkenstock began as a foot-health product. Crocs originated as boating footwear. Dubarry started as a country sports brand. Blundstone began as Tasmanian work boots. The shared thread: function-first design that prioritises comfort, durability and weather resistance over gender-specific styling.
Sizing in unisex styles typically defaults to men's UK measurements. If you're a woman buying unisex, going down 1.5 to 2 UK sizes from your typical women's fit usually gives the right size — but check the product description as some brands list specific women's conversions. Children's unisex sizes follow standard UK kids' sizing.
For everyday wear, the Birkenstock Arizona and Madrid are the unisex starting points — both have been worn by men, women and children for over fifty years. The Crocs Classic Clog is similarly cross-generational. For working in unpredictable weather, Dubarry's Galway boots and Blundstone Chelseas work for any wearer. For street style, Vans and Converse offer iconic silhouettes that anyone can wear.
Care: most unisex styles benefit from regular cleaning and conditioning appropriate to the materials. Leather styles need leather cream every few months. Crocs and rubber-soled styles can be hosed down. Suede should be brushed and protected with waterproofing spray. With proper care, unisex styles often outlast gender-specific footwear thanks to their function-first construction.
