Customer Reviews Birkenstock Super Birki by Birkenstock (Unisex)

If you started in the culinary industry with these then you will not switch. Price is perfect, they last 1 year (with the amount of hours spent on them daily) they are easy on and off. You do not slip even on oil (within reason). Just perfect for culinary!

As an operating room RN I spend alot of time on my feet, sometimes standing in one spot for several hours. I have worn several other types of shoes and these have been the best by far. My feet and back do not hurt after work anymore. Thanks Birkenstock!

I am a surgeon and need great arch support and comfort, standing 8-10 hours a day on hard floors. I have worn wooden clogs, Crocs (Rx & Specialist and regular). These initially feel very hard. After wearing them only a short period, you realize the amazing contoured footbed leaves your feet feeling great. No plantar pain after prolonged periods in them. They run true to size and easy to clean. You do not buy these for the looks, so get over it.

Have had several pair. Comfortable for long days rounding, OR, etc. Feel true size but I like about 1/2 size up in these.

Zappos has amazing customer service. Very fast, free shipping. This is the 7th pair of Birki's I have owned. I am a chef and would not wear any other shoe.I would say in my opinion they run a little small. in all other European shoes I wear a 44. US 11/11.5 Sometimes I even have work a 43 depending on the style or "shape" of the shoe. So I was aware of this. But it's a Rio for first time buyers. Zappos make it so easy. even to exchange or return. If you are looking at this shoe either for work or for play, get it. I think they even look good with jeans. Don't waste money on Croc's. this is the real deal!

These are so comfortable, I wore them outside this past week and had to look down to verify that I wasn't wearing my memory-foam slippers. I have a wide foot with a a narrow heal. These fit my size 43 foot very well.

I am so happy with these Super Birki's!! I work in a kitchen, so I'm on my feet very active for 10+ hours a day. They are far superior to the Dansko & Crocs I have been using. Great support, very comfortable. Classic look. They are comfortable from the second you put them on, but it takes a a little bit of time to get used to walking in them. Not bad, just slightly different then other shoes. I highly recommend them to anyone 'back of the house'.

I bought these for my husband to replace his Dansko work clogs. He swears by Danskos, but is absolutely insane for these. He is on his feet 14+ hours a day in a busy OR and needs a great fitting, comfortable, durable shoe. These are perfect, easy wear, easy clean, and a great pattern too! He loves them! True to size and well built as the regular Birks are. Awesome purchase.

Good shoe, professional enough for hospital attire. Comfortable for standing, ok for walking, easy to clean. Measured my foot with a ruler (heel against a wall & fully weighted) and it was a size 11 using Zappos size chart, but reviews said they fit big… I got the size 10 and have fit perfect.

Zappos did what they said they'd do in the time frame they said they'd do it. Unusual in this day and age. I'm impressed.

These shoes are extremely comfortable and keep my feet nice and toasty. I love that they are waterproof, and they are very sturdy. Someone stepped on my foot, and it didn't even hurt. The only thing I don't like is the shape of the toe area. Someone referred to them as duck feet.

I love these! They are so practical for my work in the Operating Room and the patients get a kick out of the design. I can be on my feet for 12 hours and my legs do not ache at the end of a shift.

The insole is true to size, but the upper shoe runs large (it's shaped for a man's foot). The shoe drops down against the top of my foot when I walk. I tried thick socks, but then my feet got too hot. Target has inserts that ladies use to make shoes more comfortable or to prevent rubbing. I bought a large one (for the ball of foot, officially) and stuck it in the top of the shoe right about where Birkenstock is written. That seems to work. I wore my old shoes to work yesterday for comparison and the sole felt all wrong and my feet were too hot. I think I've already gotten used to having cooler shoes since they're backless.

I have wide feet and a high arches. These fit great and have lots of support. They are very comfortable (but not as comfortable as my Dansko Pro XPS). They are ugly - I have brown. I bought to wear as slippers inside the house so it does not matter - but they are really ugly.

Be patient and these Super Birki clogs will reward you. Don't do as I do, do as I say...wore these on an eight-hour shift straight out of the box and my toes were soon mangled. Enjoy them around the house for short stints until one day you'll forget you're wearing them. The support these shoes provide is unsurpassed and the color selection is adorable.

These fit like other Birki's I've worn in the past, and for me that's perfect. These are a little more heavy than some other Birki's I've had in the past, but that isn't a bad thing. The only thing I would call out that's a little different is the skull print looks white in the pictures, but it's actually silver. That's fine with me, and I actually like the silver better, but might be important to others.

I just love these Birki's. I looked at them for a few months and then just had to have them for yard work and just plain fun. They run a little big/wide. I wear a 40 in a clog/sandal but bought a 39 in this shoe, thanks to your info.They are so comfortable and I do wear them with socks. I will have these for years.

I've been through about a pair per year for the past 10-15 years. I keep them by the door and slip them on when I go out to walk the dog, which has to be done in any kind of weather. These Super-Birkis give me all the support and comfort I need for walking (not power walking) on gravel, grass, and sidewalks, and can be hosed off. Since I walk in them for over an hour every day, the bottoms are worn after a year, so I just replace with a new pair. This way, my other shoes have longer life.

I'm wearing this shoe more than anything else since I've gotten it. I originally bought it for gardening. I do use it for gardening, and it's great, with one problem. Dirt gets inside, and the insole is not washable like the rest of the shoe. I inevitably step on the dirt and grind it in. I could have gotten the one with no removable insole, but I love the support. I'm still loving this shoe, as it's so easy to slip on and run outside in any weather, and comfortable and supportive, like Birkenstocks are. I wear a size 10.5, and I ordered a 41, which feels short, lengthwise. My toe hits the front. Next time I'll go bigger. Great shoe!

This is my 3rd pair of this clog. If you like birki's, this is a shoe for you. I work in the ER and I am running around for 8 hours and my feet don't hurt at the end of the night. You can't beat the price.

So comfy I bought a second pair! I got these for work, with mild reservations. However really comfortable and solid. Run slightly small so figure a half size up if borderline due to European sizing.

I bought these for my hubby who works 12 hour shifts in the operating room. He really likes them and says they are very comfortable. He would highly recommend them! Great for folks in the medical field.

My mom loves them. It fits her perfectly, not too tight not too lose just right and it lessen her foot pain. However, it would have been better if they had one in a diabetic-approved or orthotic pair. Maybe if the insoles were softer than having to buy insoles.

In addition to plantar fasciitis, I have a super flexible big toe that forces a lot of pressure onto my other metatarsals causing them to inflame to a point where I cannot walk for one or two days. Did I mention that I am a professional cook? After getting orthotics for all my other shoes, I tried looking for cooking shoes with good support. Enter the Super-Birki's and their fantastic cork foot bed. Truth: it does take a few days to break this shoe in. After that, you'll be good as gold. Did I mention I work about 3 12-hour shifts a week, plus 3 5-8 hour shifts depending on the day? To say that I love this shoe would be an understatement. To say that I am on my third pair and plan on buying more is not an understatement. Thank you Super-Birki for keeping my happy!
