Customer Reviews Birkenstock Super Birki by Birkenstock (Unisex)

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.

I am a medical student rotating in the hospital, which means long hours on my feet and hard floors. At the end of the day, my feet are not tired, swollen or achy, and my back feels great. A few comments: 1. They don't breath at all. I wear wool/synthetic blend socks for moisture control which helps, but after 6 weeks they kind of stink! Invest in some deodorizing shoe balls and make yourself happy. 2. Since there is no heel strap, the shoes tend to slap on the floor as you walk. Better for standing in place then running around. 3. The area over the top arch of the foot is quite spacious. I have a low volume foot, so i kept slipping out. Applying a line of foam moleskin cured the problem.

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!

I have been wearing the same pair of these for 15 years, it is now time to replace them. I work in the kitchens and they are an absolute must have. No shoes compare to them when you are on your feet all day. I love them, I must have them to do my job! Not to mention they lasted me for 15 years, I just replaced the insoles every now and then. Perfect work shoes for me.

Love these shoes, as I knew I would. Buy one size smaller to avoid a return. The insole can be removed, if you need to wear them in super wet conditions. Perfect for gardening or other outdoor activities. I am a ceramic artist, so they work perfectly for the dusty, dirty work I do--just rinse them off at the end of the day.

Very comfortable right out of the box. I bought them to work in the garden but wear them all the time. The removable footbed is easy to clean. I will be buying more of these.

I love these shoes I bought a pair of Birkis in 2004 and this is 2013 and I am just buying another pair as I speak. These shoes are just what the doctor order for me. They are excellent. I would truly recommend Birkis to anyone! Those of you who need arch support or just comfortable shoes try wearing Birkis you cannot go wrong.

Got these for work thinking it may be a good replacement for my Merrell's mule shoes. I was wrong. I hated them. Yes they were stiff as one person reviewed, but there was no way I was going to continue wearing them because the arch of the insole was so prominent that it actually hurt my feet. If a high arch is what you're looking for then give them a try, but beware it may be too much

These are the only clogs I will wear, especially for my demanding kitchen job. They clean up easy, fit well and work great with my orthotic inserts for my plantar fasciitis. My feet don't hurt and unlike other European clogs I have tried to wear in the past, they allow my feet to do what they need to without being restricting or too tight.

I have worn these in the past for outdoor gardening and rainy days. They are perfect for those of us that have wide feet, or plantar fasciitis of the heel. I work 12 hour shifts on a concrete floor and these help my feet to not be so tired by the end of the day!

Love these shoes, won't go back to any other plastic shoe I've tried. Comfortable doing yardwork, standing on ladders, shopping. I got blue and would love to have a pair of brown.

I am a chef and spend all day on my feet. I have been through many different brands. Danskos are way too narrow for me, and I usually end up wearing an old pair of Doc Marten boots or Crocs for comfort. These were great! Super wide and roomy. The only bad thing is that they are stiff on top and on my left foot after a few days, I know have a lump on the top of my foot.

The shoes would have been great for standing in the kitchen at work all day, but they do run small.

When I first put them on I thought they may eventually hurt my feet because of how the arch felt. I was wrong. They feel great. Love that I just slip them on and go. Comfy and easy.

I have had the Super-Birki for six months and I cannot wear them anymore for work. I stand on my feet all day long. After reading all the reviews, I thought I would stick it out through the break-in period (because they are hard on the bottom). However, as the days go on, I am getting numb toes, and the shoes press on the bump on top of your feet. I have another coworker who bought at the same time as I did, and she is not wearing them anymore for the same problem. I will use them for working in the yard. They are nice for durability and clean up.

I love the Birki for work. I work eight hours on my feet in food service. They are all around the best. This is my second pair, I wore my first pair for three years. Zappos is the best place for customer service. They make shopping a breeze.

I purchased these after seeing the plentiful stellar reviews, and after having found comfort and good quality in Birkenstocks in the past. I honestly have no clue how 200 of you think these shoes are comfortable, because they have absolutely no cushioning or shock absorption. I feel as though I am walking around with two bricks as shoes; they are hard and unforgiving. After an 8 hour day at work as an RN, my heels are throbbing horribly and I can't walk comfortably (and I am 31 years old). They also don't have any ventilation so your feet get sweaty pretty qucikly. Sorry Birks, these shoes just don't work for me. I have a pair of Birkenstock clogs with the normal cork sole and suede upper that are very comfortable and supportive. Guess I'll have to stick with them.

I love these shoes. It took a while for me to get used to them. At first I wanted to return them because the way my toes hit the front. I think its because of walking improperly (walking without your feet pointed out, you have to walk with your feet straight). Once I got used to them, I love them! So comfortable!
