Customer Reviews Birkenstock Boston (Unisex)

I got these for my teen daughter who has a tiny wide foot and they work great. They were recommended by her orthopedic for the support and negative heel position which helps stretch her plantar fascia. They wear like iron and are worth the price since they last and last!

These shoes are the most comfortable and lasting shoes I have ever owned. I purchased my first pair in 1998 and they are still rocking (even through 3 dogs who love them just as much as I do). The interior of my first pair have been worn smooth so when I put my recently purchased ones, I was reminded of how comfortable and natural the toe box and arch are. These are my go to shoes for kicking back with jeans and socks. I wear these in the dead of winter and avoid snow drifts. They scream relax and unwind on the weekend.

These shoes are fairly expensive (unless you're used to Manolos or Jimmy Choos!), but so comfortable, so good for your feet, and so worth it to me. I particularly like the Boston, and love this mocha suede; I find I wear it quite often in the winter. I did spray them with a suede protector to keep them clean and dry. Best of all, Birkenstock clogs actually saved me from bunion surgery. My orthopedic surgeon wanted to do surgery on the 2 tailor's bunions (on the outside of the feet) about 10 years ago. I was a broke student and really wanted to avoid being laid up. My general practitioner recommended that before I get bunion surgery, I try Birkenstock clogs. I was fitted by a professional, who pointed out that Birks should fit larger than regular shoes, in a size 36. I have been wearing them ever since. I can transition into less comfortable and more fashionable shoes on occasion, but once my bunions start to hurt, back to Birkenstocks I go.

Great shoes! Expensive but worth the money. They last forever with minimum maintenance.

They're wonderful; same size as my sandals and fit perfectly helping my poor feet. Zappos super on delivery also!

Birkenstock's are the best shoes that ever existed. My Birko-Flor Arizona's are my favorite style of Birkenstock's because they are so close to being vegan and are great for every season...except winter. That's why I ordered this pair on Zappos. They were the cheapest of this style that I could find anywhere, and they were free to ship! I have zero complaints.

This was my first experience with Zappos but it won't be my last. The shoes are fantastic (of course, they're Birkis!) but what surprised me most was how quickly they arrived even though I just selected the standard shipping. I searched other places for these shoes and the shipping rates were outrageous (up to $20!). None with Zappos! How great is that?! I'll definitely be shopping at Zappos for more products. Totally impressed.

I have worn Birkenstock sandals for over 20 years but these are the first clogs I have owned. They are great and have saved me from horrible foot pain from Morton's neuroma. I wear them all the time. Even with foot swelling I bought the narrow style in size 39 (8.5). And Zappos delivered them ahead of schedule.

I've worn these for years...first bought them on a hiking/walking trip out west when the shoes I had just were not doing it for me. These are so extremely comfortable, great arch support, and go with any casual outfit. If you've never worn clogs it could take a day or so to get used to them, but you don't fall out or off of them, there is a little raised ridge at the heel. Be careful though if these get soaked, between the suede and the cork-like material in the heel/sole, it can be a bad thing. There are materials that can be bought to "paint" onto the soles and help them be more waterproof, probably a good idea. One of the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned: ignore the price, it's worth it if your feet are problematic at all! (I have high arches, narrow heels and wide forefoot.)

I love my Birkenstock's! This is the first time I have tried this closed toe style, but they are so comfortable, beautiful color and go with more than I thought they would. I wear them all the time.

I had been having planter fasciitis pain. Numerous specialists, expensive orthotics and a year of physical therapy only partially relieved the pain. I received a pair of Birkenstock felt clogs that wore around the house as slippers. No pain. I am teacher and stand most of the day. I have two pairs of the Birkenstock Boston, one in brown and the other in an olive green. I changed my life. I am a wide width and the regular was fine.

Absolutely love my Birkies! I have a problem with the ball of my foot that makes it painful to walk and these really help! Zappos' price was great and they arrived in Alaska very fast. Will definitely keep shopping with Zappos.

I was totally amazed with my purchase at Zappos! I ordered my shoes at 5:15p.m. and they were at my house the Next day before noon! I have never had such service! And by the way, I love my shoes! Thanks, Zappos!

Zappos is the best I have shopped at Zappos for a long time and the service is tops. Love the shoes. They run about a size bigger than your regular size so order down. I am a 71/2 regular width in these I ordered a 37 regular width which is about a 6 or 6 1/2 according to Birkenstock. Highly recommend these to anyone who loves Birkenstock shoes.

You just can't be Birkenstock! These are awesome the color is great. I like that even though it's not smooth leather, it doesn't show scratches or marks the way nubuck does. The fit is perfect right out of the box. Best of all since I live in the midwest I can place an order at lunch and being wearing the shoes the next afternoon. Zappos rocks!

These shoes are great! I can work a 12 hour shift in them and my feet won't be sore at all. I ordered the narrow size but I wear medium in most shoes. The narrow fits me perfect.

My daughter wanted a pair of Birkenstock's for her birthday. We ordered the shoes and they arrived JUST 2 DAYS LATER, NO SHIPPING COSTS! She wore the shoes for about a month and they began to show more wear and tear than would be expected for that quality of shoe based on the cost. I called Zappos and they replaced the shoes at no charge and with no shipping cost, and again, we received the replacement pair in just 2 days.

I have been eyeing Birkenstock clogs for years and have always wanted a brownish color, but just couldn’t find the right brown. Finally I found the right color from Zappos! I bought this shoe in Peat Antique Leather and it’s perfect! I love the “worn” look this shoe gets after a few wears and the leather is so soft. This is my first pair of Birkenstock clogs and I was a bit skeptical at first because they felt like I was wearing shoe boxes on my feet, but then I read what you should do before committing to wearing them for a long time. Now I am in love as they have begun molding to my feet and I feel like I’m wearing slippers. I ordered a narrow 39 in this shoe even though I don’t consider myself to have narrow feet (I’m a true 8.5). Apparently a narrow in this shoe is A-B width and regular width is C-D and all my shoes are B width so I went with narrow and I’m glad I did as I feel the regular width would flop off my feet. These shoes fit snug, just the way I want them to fit.

I love Birkenstocks. I had the same style 30 years ago! They run very small though. I wear a size 7, which is a 38. It was way too big. So was the 37. I ended up getting size 36, which fits great. Very comfortable. I recommend them, but beware of sizing if you are a first time buyer.

Birkenstocks are not a great risk, the footbed had been similar for years, and the fit is always great. A little widish with a great arch - that is what you go to Birks for. This closed-toe model is really great for winter car-office-very light snow schlepping. The arch support is second-to-none, and they do not look totally nerdy cause the toe is closed. If you wear them with pants no one will know you are wearing sandals. If you wear them with a skirt or dress you will be laughed at. As with all Birks, the kick off, slide on is really swell. Oddly, several people have commented that my shoes were a great color - I always wear these sensible-type shoes and was surprised by that. But they are a really nice color and finish - not shiny new looking. I needed these for a flare-up of plantar whatever-the-heck, and wanted to have basically winter-weight sandals. They don't disappoint. It is cold and snowy where I roam, and I can't wear these on a real snow day (turn back to my Keens for that). But lots of my world is trekking from car to office, so they work perfectly for that.

These are my first pair of Birkenstock shoes and I just love them. I love the free shipping both ways and they do honor this if you have to send something back! It is top quality footwear.

Purchased these for my wife's birthday as she requested. Zappos delivered super fast. The shoes were exactly as ordered and my wife loves them. I think they look great on her. She claims they are the most comfortable shoes she has ever worn. I highly recommend Zappos and will continue to shop there. Their free shipping is a big bonus.
