Nice, the inside is comfy enough for bare feet, and the toe box is wide and roomy. Sadly, I must send them back because the arch support is really high and extends too far to the front of the insole to be comfortable for me. Birkie insoles are not soft and cushy and they are hard. My husband has a pair of these and he loves them, wears socks with them. Socks didn't help me though.

I like the fact that this shoe has laces because I can tighten it up to help it stay on. I like the cream color because it goes with practically everything. While the canvas material is light weight my feet do get hot if it is really warm out, so I tend to wear these on cooler days or in the morning or evening. They don't feel like they have as much arch support as my Birkenstock sandals, but am still breaking them in. I originally ordered them in size 9/40, but had to return them for size 8.5/39 and they fit fine. All in all if you are looking for a good summer clog that is totally casual and comfortable, this will do.

I was so glad to find this style of shoe. I have worn Birkenstock for the last 20 years and wouldn't wear anything else. This shoe is the style I like casual, I am a tee shirt and jean senior citizen.I hope more of this style will soon be available. The fit is great and can be adjusted with the tie.And as always the 40R fit me to a T. PH

This shoe has the leather insole and the nice arch support that I like in the Birkenstock Arizona and it was immediately comfortable and size was right on. The color is very hip and the slide part with the protected toe is great!

I love these shoes! Birki's work for my feet in general (low arches, bunions), but I have trouble with slip-ons because I walk right out of them. The laces on this shoe are functional and hold the shoe on my foot. The canvas gives me a spring and early fall option between sandals and Birkenstock shoes. I'm very happy with this new style.

About Birki's
The days when we are truly free of everything that occupies us in our daily lives are surely the most enjoyable times of year: vacations, long weekends and holidays. We can sit back and relax, refuel, and do what we really like to do, whether we're at home or at a holiday destination. Even better if we can do this at a location that's sunny and warm, where we can hear the ocean surf while waves are lapping onto the beach, where we can feel good. Everything is just the way we've always wanted it. Sharing all of the above with our children or good friends who share our wavelength has got to be the ultimate in having a truly good time!
And what is more obvious than choosing the right shoes for these special moments? Maybe you don't generally spend a lot of thought on the matter of footwear. This really should be considered not only because we are constantly accompanied by our shoes, but also because healthy feet demand agreeable comfort - enough space for free movement. This way your vacation can start the moment you buy your shoes, because Birki's sandals and clogs are the perfect companions for spending your relaxing spare time, no matter where and how one wants to spend this time.
Birki's collection is best characterized by these keywords: Wellness - Comfort - Kids. All models come with anatomically-molded footbeds, some styles made of Alpro®-Foam or Alpro®-Cell, some made of cork-latex. They are always in the trendy colors of the current season and always in line with the sophisticated wishes of Birki's big and small customers.
The areas of application of Birki's clogs and sandals are endless. Decide for yourself when, where, and how to wear your Birki's - the sky's the limit for your imagination!

Zappos upgraded my shipping to overnight at no charge so what a pleasant surprise when the shoes showed up the next day. The Birki's are a little big but very comfortable. They will be great for around the house shoes.

Got these in the khaki/green color and mom liked them so much, I ordered the navy for her. There are very comfy - cute with jeans or crop pants. Can wear with or without socks - love Birks that you can wear in colder weather! Only think about Zappos sizing of Birks with US vs. Euro sizes - I wear a size 7 and a 37 in all Birks - not a 38 which would be way too big.

These shoes are true to size. I ordered my normal size, 42, and I had 1/8 of an inch to spare. There was no breaking in period as these shoes were comfortable right out of the box.

I love these Birkis! I own lots of Birkenstocks and these are so cute and comfortable. I got the orange and came back for the khaki green. They are nice for this in-between weather.

I love this shoe! First I have to say I ordered a regular width and didn't realize at first that they had sent me a narrow, but it fits me perfectly! These are just so cute and a nice alternative to sandals in the summer.

The insole and sole are very hard, with hardly any give. This makes the insole not so comfortable as I hoped it would be. The Anatomically correct cork/latex footbed is not so correct, and the toe area is uncomfortable. They are still good shoes, and I decided to keep them with the hope that my feet will adjust.

I got these for my husband who has really bad feet. He loves these shoes and can wear them with or without socks. He calls them his "cool" shoes. They are really cute on his big feet.

Disappointed that the toe area is already beginning to unravel; this is the 1st time I am disappointed with a Birkenstock product (have bought 2 pr sandals). The Birki's look as though they were made in 2nd grade-school. They are comfortable, but again, the poor design in the front of the toe is sadly lacking. I would not recommend these Birki's again unless I just got a lemon.

I love this shoe. I wear it with capris as an alternate to sandals. It is comfy and true to size (like all Birki's). Plan to purchase in another color. Zappos is the best Birki site.
Brands I'd also recommend: Birkenstock and only Birkenstock.
