Customer Reviews Birkenstock Granada - Nubuck

Up to par! I was disappointed that Birkenstock had discontinued the non-leather line, but with back and foot problems, I needed to go with what I knew worked for me. These shoes are up to the Birkenstock standard for comfort, support, and fit, and even though I prefer not to get leather, they have a good natural feel, unlike the synthetic leathers, that are chemical-based. The look is also nice, more delicate than most of the Birkenstock styles.

I have narrow feet and ordered the N version, hoping that the two buckles would make the shoes narrow enough. They worked OK. The shoes are fine - my first pair of Birkenstocks. I expected them to have softer food beds.

Lasts forever – I have had this same shoe for over 10 years, but in black, and it is still in good condition – wear it daily in warm weather.

Newer version is tough - I agree with Anonymous from San Diego. I've worn these sandals for years. However, the leather on this last pair of Granada’s was so stiff that it took days of wearing them and working the leather to soften it before I could wear them comfortably. By then I had blisters on both feet! Now they are soft and very comfortable. But I'm not sure that I want to go through all of that again when its time to buy another pair.

I love the look of these, and they are very comfortable. However, the straps sound like squeaky rubber when I walk in them which is very annoying. I am sending them back for another Birkenstock sandal. I have had a pair of Birks for many years and need to replace them. I thought I would try a new style.

Granada is a great style, but with some problems - I purchased my first pair of the Granadas in the mid 1980's. Within one year, even with good care to the cork my pair split at the ball of the foot on both shoes. Several repairs were unable to fix this problem.

Mom loves them! I bought these as a gift for my mom for Christmas. I asked her how she liked them for this review, and she said, very enthusiastically, “I love them! I don't even know that I’m wearing them. I have to look down at my feet to see if I have shoes on.” There you have it.

It's a classic - I've had this style Birkenstock for years. Very comfortable, of course good support and this style can be worn with any outfit. They do last a LONG time! Be careful ordering regular or wide width--the regular is already roomy, especially with the adjustable straps.

Wonderful Shoes - I have had both my hips replaced and Birkenstock shoes are the only shoes I wear. This is the first time I purchased the Granada style Birkenstock. I love them! It has a much dresser look than the Arizona style I usually buy. Many times I purchase the Regular but I thought these were a little wide so I bought the "N". Check it out they are worth the cost. Be advised these are my 18th pair of Birkenstock. I buy most my pairs from Zappos. Great price and the shipping is free both ways!!!

Birkenstocks rule!! I love these shoes. They are a replacement for an older pair that wore to bits. More delicate than the usual clunky Birks, I have them in black as well. Wish they made them in more colors...it's nice to find Birkenstocks that blend comfort with a little style. Or ANY style at all .

Great Sandals - These sandals are comfortable, fit great and look awesome. I wondered why I waited so long to replace my very worn out Birkenstocks sandals.

Great shoe - This is the most comfortable shoe I have worn. You can walk in this shoe all day!!

Very hard to get used to at first, lots of breaking in time. Wonderful once I got used to them. I had to send back the first pair; they were a size bigger than I anticipated. I wear about a 7 1/2 or 8 and the size 37 fit perfect.

Great sandal - I found it to be very comfortable. I put them on and walked in them for the whole day till I went to bed. They look very nice for going out kind of stylish compared to my Boston and Arizona shoes. Also I get a snugger fit than the others when buckled.

Contented feet - A comfortable, sturdy, good-looking sandal.

Great shoes - These are without a doubt the most comfortable and supportive shoes I have ever owned. It took me about a week to adjust (my feet were apparently very out of line). I suffer from plantar fasciitis and have had foot problems all my life. These are my first Birkenstocks. I notices immediately that at the end of the day I felt no fatigue in my feet or legs even though there were spots on my feet that felt sore as I went through the adjustment period. Now any other shoes feel funny or out of balance to me. They are really cute too. I get compliments often. Love these shoes.

Great sandals - This is my second pair of Birk's (the other is the Arizona) and these are just as comfortable as the Arizona's. There was very little break in time. The straps fit a bit tighter than the Arizona's but they are still comfortable. The straps are more delicate looking and a bit dressier than the Arizona. Highly recommend them!

Best Sandal Ever - This is my third pair and I won't buy any other sandal again, plus they last a long time and wear real well.

Mine lasted 10 years!! I LOVE the Granada sandals!! They are my absolute favorite style of Birk...not quite as granola as some of the others. After 10 years, I finally have to break down and get a new pair. The soles on my old ones are pretty much worn off, but the nubuck leather still looks great. Highly recommend!!

Replacing 11-year-old Birkenstocks - My new Birkenstock Granadas have been a perfect replacement for my oldest shoes. I wore my Birkenstock three-strap slip-ons (I think they are the Florida style) for everyday occasions for years, finally relegating them to "slipper" status. Since I need support for my feet at all times, they were good for slipping on as I got out of bed. They finally started feeling worn out. I ordered the Granadas because I like the more feminine look and the blue color. I got the same size as I bought eleven years ago and the new shoes fit just like the old ones. The first time I wore them for about two hours before I realized they were going to need breaking in. I've gradually worn them for longer periods and they are totally comfortable. I prefer Birkies with ankle straps for when I go out but I wear these all day when I'm home.

granada - I have a problem finding anything comfortable for my feet. I can wear these all day. I ordered them on a Wed. night and they were delivered at 11:00am on Thurs. Fabulous!

Never the most fashionable, but for comfort and support Birkenstock can't be beat. I am struggling with plantar facitis and currently these are the only shoes/sandals that I can wear that support my feet properly. It didn't take too long to break in and now they feel great.

These shoes are very comfortable and well worth the money. The service and shipping of my product was outstanding.

Great Look, Great Shoe - This is my third pair of Birkenstocks and I used them primarily when I spent a week in DisneyWorld. They were very easy to break in and I did not have any problems keeping up.

Flirty Birkies - I've always wanted Granadas for their more delicate look. They were impossible to find in 37 narrow and then along came Zappos. The lacier look, two adjustable straps, and the comfy foot bed make these a real gem.
