I love Birkenstocks. They last forever and offer the best in arch support. I have plantar fasciitis and these shoes really help.

I love my Birkenstocks! I will never be without a pair of the Arizona! Super comfortable and I got some neat mismatched socks to wear with them and I am the hit wherever I go! Zappos is a terrific company to do business with! I received my shoes within 3 days of ordering. And, yes, I would order from them again in a minute!

This is the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn. My only concern is the leather used in this style (Sumatra). It's rather rough. I'm hoping it will soften in time, and I will order another pair when the spring colors are available.

Shoes are great, but more importantly Zappos is great! Ordered these at 3 pm with free 4-5 day shipping and they were on my doorstep at 11 am the next morning.

Additional Brand Information

Birkenstock® USA, began over 30 years ago when the founder, Margot Fraser, had a dream of sharing the comfort and health benefits of Birkenstock shoes. A few years earlier, while visiting a German resort, she had tried on her first pair and was extremely impressed at how good they felt. From there, Margot learned that the original Birkenstock contoured footbed was invented and manufactured in Germany by Konrad Birkenstock in 1897. In fact, the Birkenstock family has been shoemakers for over 225 years – more than two centuries of creating and perfecting a tradition of walking comfort.

Birki’s® was founded in the early 90's by Stephan Birkenstock The goal was to create stylish sandals that were not only good for you but also something to show off. All Birki's shoes and sandals are made in Germany using environmentally-friendly process and proven craftsmanship.

Most Birkenstock and Birki's footbeds are crafted from a cork-latex mixture. The cork used is 100% renewable and sustainable harvested from the Oak tree. The harvesting of the cork does not harm the Oak Tree and allows for new bark to grow back beginning the life cycle all over again. Each contoured footbed will molds and shapes to your foot with the heat of your body creating a custom footbed that supports and cradles each and every step. For the customer that wants a cushioned footbed, they can now enjoy the soft footbed that is offered by Birkenstock shoes and Birki's shoes. Available in a variety of styles, the time-tested cork construction has been enhanced with a layer of memory foam.

Start your child off on the right foot with Birkenstock Kids shoes and Birki’s Kids shoes. Children need footwear that is good for their growing feet. The contoured footbed supplied by Birkenstock Kids shoes and Birki's Kids shoes mirrors the natural shape of the foot, offering excellent support. Birkenstocks Kids shoes and Birki’s Kids shoes are created according to the daily needs of children. Many styles available in the Birkenstock Kids and Birki's Kids line can be purchased in the adult version.

A large portion of Birkenstock shoes and Birki's shoes are completely repairable and renewable, reducing the potential for tons of waste to be dumped in land fills each year. From old favorites in fresh colors to new styles and materials, you can easily reuse and refresh your Birkenstock shoes and Birki's shoes for year to come.

Birkenstock's are one of the few shoes that don't hurt my feet. I am an older woman with a hammer toe so can't wear closed toed shoes. The Arizona style fit my feet perfectly and are so comfy I just forget I have shoes on at all! I just purchased black suede for Fall and Winter wear. I dressed up for a party with nice black slacks and my Birkie's. I think I was more comfortable than anyone else and looked just as nice!

If you have not tried the soft foot bed Birkenstocks, do yourself a favor and have at it! So comfortable. I have lymphedema in my feet/legs; they swell. These can be adjusted to accommodate the day and feel ever so soft and comfortable every day no matter what. I am even going to have to wear them during the winter here in Michigan, with socks, they will work! Had to order several different pairs until I could find the fit for my hard to fit feet. Zappos makes it easy with their free shipping and handling. Bless them! I love Zappos and Birkenstock.

These Birkenstock Arizona Soft Footbeds are just one of many Zappo products I have purchased. These replaced a pair that my wife bought locally. They getting a bit used with everyday wear. I decided to buy her next pair from Zappo. They came in just a few days, no shipping cost and at the same price as local sales, but no sales tax which saves a few dollars. I buy all my shoes from Zappos. I am a five star satisfied customer.

I have worn Birkenstocks for 25 years and have been pleased. They are the best sandals there are. With the wider size and the soft footbed available the best have become even better. The only thing that exceeds Birkenstock quality and comfort is Zappos service. I cannot say enough good things about shopping at Zappos.

I am diabetic and have neuropathy in my feet. I have always worn Birkenstocks, but last year the cork footbed began to hurt my feet, so I had to give them up. When I saw these soft footbed Birks, I decided to try them. I am so glad that I did. They are wonderful. They fit just like the regular ones, but do not cause me any foot pain at all. I love them.
Other Brands Recommended by Reviewer: Clarks. The Naturevelt is wonderful too.

A shoe to wear to forget about daily tensions and hurting feet. They are soft and arch supporting. I have these in five different colors and enjoy wearing each and very one. Love the new fall colors. Life is good when stepping out in an Arizona Soft Footbed.

Birkenstocks need no review: perfect for summertime in and out. First time Zappos user, though and they are perfect, too. Tried to buy new Birks locally, but to no avail. I happened to think of Zappos from ads in the New Yorker. Within ten minutes, my order was placed and within two days, my new sandals were here. Much easier (and better selection) than the stores 45 minutes away.

I owned a pair of Birkenstock sandals for many years. They finally wore out and needed replacing. The Arizona Soft Footbed sandal is great. Same great arch support as my old pair, but now a slightly softer sole. The footbed isn't squishy, it just has a little more cushion than the original. They are expensive, but Birkenstocks will last for years.

I ordered a pair of birkenstocks for my dad and the customer service was outstanding! I have told loved ones and friends how much fun it was to shop with Zappos and how wonderful the experience was. My dad was thrilled with the sandals and received them very quickly. \r\nZappos definitely goes out of their way to ensure people are delighted with their purchase. Thank you Zappos for being so extraordinary!

I purchased these Birkenstock sandals for my husband and he just loves them and me. I've been wearing Birkenstock shoes now for more than 10 years and I can't begin to tell you how they relieved the pain in my hip.

Despite their mildly eccentric appearance, the soft footbed Birkenstocks are a delicious treat for feet. Once you wear them, you will have little tolerance for ill-fitting shoes, however fashionable.

The most comfortable sandal made, period. Even out of the box I can wear the soft footbed Arizona's for eight hours or more. I now have five pairs of Arizonas and love them all. Zappos is a top-shelf company. It is such a pleasant surprise dealing with a company that not only believes in customer service, but excels in customer service.
