    I love these in silver. Always thought Birkenstock sandals would be too wide for my very narrow feet, but these were perfect! If you have narrow feet, buy these, but save me a pair in copper! As usual great service from Zappos!

    I have five pairs of these in different colors, have worn them for years. I wear them in winter sometimes with socks and summer. People compliment me on them and can't believe that they are Birkenstocks.

    Finally, a feminine Birkenstock that fits perfectly. I was hoping all the reviews were right about this one seeming a little big. Usually, I have one toe or other hanging/almost hanging off the edge of a Birkenstock. These, size 42 (11-11½) fit perfectly. Not only that, the Moroccan Gold is lovely, not tacky at all, and will be perfect with so many outfits. I work in a business casual environment but always try to look put-together. I cannot wait to try another color. Thank you, Zappos!

    I read a bunch of reviews and finally picked size 37. I am 7½-8. Everything fit perfectly... except for my long toe. The sandals are sunken in and my toe constantly hits the ridge by the toeline. I returned these and since they did not have a 38 in black had to upgrade to the leather Gizeh Sandals. Even though I returned these I am still giving them five stars. They are very comfortable!

    About Birkenstock

    of New Styles!

    Notify me when new styles of Birkenstock are added to the website

    Add This Brand to My Favorites
    Birkenstock® has been a family owned and operated business for over 200 years when Johann Adam Birkenstock first registered as a shoemaker in a small German village. In fact, all Birkenstock footwear is still made in Germany; a tradition that requires a natural respect for both the environment and future generations.

    Birkenstock is based on the simple principles of health and wellness, quality workmanship and materials, and a respect for the environment. Did you know that Birkenstock created the original contoured footed that supports and shapes to your foot when walking? And it's made of 100% natural and renewable cork. You can feel good that you are supporting your feet and the environment at the same time. You could call it sustainable comfort.

    Birkenstock footwear is designed and sized to provide a roomy fit allowing your toes and feet to wiggle and be free. This sometimes takes a bit of getting used to. Also, most Birkenstock styles come in two widths; narrow and regular so you can really find the best possible fit for your feet. For the most natural, fit, your feet should rest comfortably inside the footbed and there should be about ¼˜ between your toes and the end of the footbed.

    No other part of your body is subject to as much stress and strain as your feet and that is why it is so important to take care of them. With features like a contoured cork footbed, a deep heel cup, and a roomy toe box, Birkenstock clogs and sandals provide more than simply cushioning. Birkenstock footwear provides the perfect balance of firm support and shock resistance allowing your feet and body to be naturally supported.

    Love the Birkenstock Gizeh Sandal! This is my first pair of Birks which I purchased after seeing several of my friends wearing them and they all raved about the Gizeh Sandal as well. I wore it all day in San Diego (4 x 8 hour days of sightseeing) and continued to wear them in NYC until the weather got colder - they are that comfortable. I tried a couple other Birk styles, but they did not fit as well as the Gizeh. My only complaint is that I am regularly a 37 in European size (6.5-7 US), and had to go down a 35 in these Birks, otherwise my feet were swimming in the sandal. I think that part of the reason it's so comfortable is not only the strong arch support and adjustable strap, but also the wide footbed (although I have medium width feet).

    I wear a size 7 and bought a 36. They fit perfectly and were comfortable right out of the box. I bought these specifically for a trip to Disneyland. We had 4 days of non-stop walking and the shoes were wonderful. I am very pleased with this purchase.

    Love them, but too big. Ordered 39 like my other Birkenstocks, but I think they fit better because of back strap, which these do not have.

    Love these sandals! I ordered my first pair about two weeks ago and now have pair #2 on the way. As per the recommendations of other customers, I ordered a full size smaller than I normally wear (I am usually an 8.5-9 and I ordered the 39). They fit perfectly! I have a wide-ish foot and the regular width fits just right. It took me several wears to break them in, but now that I have--I never want to take them off! As a perpetual flip flop wearer, I am happy to have invested in a shoe that is versatile, comfy, and cute.

    Gotta love a good pair of Birks! And these are they. My only semi-complaint, is that the black of the birko-flor is not a bolder black - almost a distressed black. But still look great and give the excellent comfort and support of Birkenstocks! As for sizing, I always wear a size 8/8.5 in all shoes - however, in Birks I always order a size 38 (7/7.5). The 39 (suggested for 8/8.5) is always a little too long and a little too wide. I personally feel uncomfortable in a shoe that is too large.

    This was a great price for great shoes. Additionally you cannot beat the service provided by Zappos. I placed my order, had my confirmation and had my shoes in three days. When it comes to customer satisfaction, Zappos delivers. Plus I love my Birkenstocks, and Zappos price was the lowest. I will buy again from Zappos.

    I bought these for walking around Hong Kong and Taiwan on some of my travels. These are so comfortable. The arch support is amazing and I did not have any back pain even after standing up They are also very durable and rugged. I did not experience any discomfort with the toe divider, but there was definitely a breaking in period with the sole. That only lasted maybe three wearings! Now they are perfect and I could not have asked for better travel sandals. I would recommend ordering half a size up. I wear a 9 or 9½ in shoes and I ordered a 40 (9½-10). They fit perfectly!

    This is my first pair of Birks and I love them. I shunned this brand for decades because of the hippie association. Then my husband mentioned several times that he couldn't find anything as comfortable as his Birks so I thought I'd give it a try. They felt very strange at first but after they broke in they felt much better. I wore them shopping yesterday for many hours and they were great. That piece between the toe doesn't really bother me. I'm now sold on this brand and would like to get more! Also, this stone color is fantastic because it is so neutral and goes with everything such as earth tones and grays. Took the advice of other reviewers and went down one size and the fit is perfect. I normally wear a 6.5 and got the 36 size.

    I have wanted a pair of Birkenstocjk shoes since I was in college 40 years ago, but they were too earthy for me to spend so much money. These are really cute and so comfy. Love them. I hope the company continues with adding some chic to it's line.

The service I have experienced with Zappos is exceptional and will continue to shop with them for a long, long time. They offer many styles that aren't available in retail at very reasonable prices.
