Birkenstock Gizeh Birkibuc™ SKU: #7242658

These sandals are soo nice! I have been looking for this style of Birkenstock sandals for 2 years and found them at your store at a fair price. The fit is excellent. Tried them on to make sure of the fit and wore them for the rest of the day. No hotspots, no blisters! They are such sensible footwear and look good. Have received many compliments on the style and the most interesting ones have been "You wear those expensive sandals". During my work day I walk many hours and my feet are never tired or hurting when I wear these sandals. The color is a neutral shade and looks good with shorts, capris, jeans and skirts. The style is flattering to my foot (6M). Ordering from Zappos is a fun experience, the selection is huge and decision making on my part is the time consuming element. Delivery is quick and efficient. In fact, I love Zappos and am telling friends and colleagues to visit your site and defy them not to purchase something! My next purchase will be a pair of slouch boots, have already been scoping out the selection. Thank you Zappos for making shopping for shoes such a pleasant experience! Kathy.

I recently had foot surgery, so I needed a supportive sandal I could wear while being active. I did get this sandal in the 'regular' (aka wide) since I had the surgery and wanted to make sure there was plenty of room. This sandal is comfy, yet pretty stylish! I would highly recommend this shoe. The piece between the toe takes a little getting used to, but as with all Birks, they feel even better once they've molded to your feet.

I ordered this sandal looking for a different sandal that supported my arch. I have had other Birkenstocks that are great on comfort and support--but were on the ugly side. These are far superior in the style department. Did have to use a little Vaseline between my toes to hasten the softening of the rather hard leather piece between the toes. The toe grip ridge can be uncomfortable if you wear them to garden...otherwise I love ‘em!

Great shoe, got lots of compliments. Very comfy. This is my second pair of Birkenstock's.

I am a convert! I cannot believe that I bought a pair of Birkenstocks and am loving them. I always found them way to dumpy, and not nearly stylish enough. Although not as gorgeous as some shoes, they keep my feet comfortable through a full day of walking and I still look pretty stylish! I have since bought a pair of the Heidi Klum Birkenstock clogs and they are fabulous, too! (This sandal did take a little getting used to as the part that goes between your toes is fairly large and metal)

Love it! I bought these shoes because I saw a friend of mine wearing them. They are really comfortable - unless you were them for a long time and then the thong part rubs a little. Super cute and casual!

A True Birkenstock Fit - Put them on. Wore them. Great! Own 10 (now 11) pairs of Birks. Just Love them! These are more stylish than some I own. Not much break-in time. If you know your Birks size, they just fit.

VERY GOOD PURCHASE - This shoe is well worth the purchase. I have bunions and have always been loathe to wear shoes/slippers that expose them. But this slipper just seems to minimize the look of the bunion. It is very comfortable with EXCELLENT arch support. The first wear is rough on the space between the toes but the second wear onwards is a breeze. Buy it!!!

Thong sandal - These sandals were a little stiff at first but after several wearings, became very comfortable. They look great with a wide variety of outfits and the color goes with most everything.

Comfortable shoe - I do like this shoe; however, I thought the leather portion that fits between your toes was way too big and floppy. It completely covered my big toe, looking very odd. I trimmed them with scissors, substantially and now they look great.

Great shoes - Love them, they were comfortable from the first minute I put them on. I ordered my standard euro size and they fit great.

Cool Comfort - Takes some time to get use to the ripples and bumps, but once you do they are the most comfortable open toe sandal with all the support one needs for comfort and healthy feet. They are wonderful. I also like the strap closer to the ankle.

Nice! Can take some getting used to, but very comfortable. However, the size can be misleading. I would suggest ordering a full size smaller than you normally would; mine were way too big when I first ordered them. Great shoes, though!

Cute, but painful - I love these shoes... but they kill between my toes. The molded plastic (or whatever it is there) is way too hard and has no give... it presses down just enough to make this shoe very uncomfortable. I have tried so many times to "break them in" and many years later it still has not worked. I hope your luck with this super cute shoe is better than mine!

Great sandal for walking! I disagree with the comments about comfort. Yes, they do take a couple of walk arounds to break them in because of the cork footbed, but they mold to your feet so that every time you slip them on after they are broken in the feel like a great slippers you've had for years. As to the size - I agree that by American standards you should order a 1/2 to 1 full size down. I love the style as I don't feel like a complete hippie when I have them on! LOL!

I had been coveting these shoes for years - I finally got a pair yesterday. I had heard from a friend that the thong takes getting used to, but that it will get better. I know from experience that a Birk worn sockless must be a half or full size down from normal. In Euro size I'm 39 in Birks, 40, 41 or 41.5 in others, and in US I'm a 10. Winter Birks can be in your normal size.
