Customer Reviews Birkenstock Super Birki by Birkenstock (Unisex)

These were a disappointment as a gardening clog. They have a cork type insole that just does not hold up. My husband has the same trouble with his. I would not recommend or buy these again.

I have several Birkenstock’s. I range from 37-38 in size. These I ordered in 38 and my foot was swimming in them I could hardly walk. Having worn them around my house I decided to return them because I think they will be too hot due to the material used. I decided not to reorder 37.

The Super Birki clog is popular for kitchen staff as its thick rubber protects feet against spills. I love the high and VERY firm arch support of the removable cork footbeds. I have some Born clogs with thick removable foam footbeds that lack arch support. I replaced the Born footbeds with Super Birki footbeds to create the perfect clog: Born's soft leather upper with Super Birki support. The Super Birki footbeds cost only $30 a pair and should last a couple years if you rotate your shoes and avoid wearing them day after day.

I purchased these for my son who is a Sushi Chef. They were the best choice.

Such a cute shoe, and the perfect bright red! If only the toe weren't a little short, I'd wear it more often!

One year on... I am a baker and I was blowing through two or three pairs of crocs a year before I found these puppies. I spend about 50-60 hours a week on poured cement and bad linoleum floors carrying 50 pound bags of flour or dough. While it did take a bit to break in the foot bed I think that they are possibly the best things to have happened to me (workwear wise) since the invention of shorts. Having fewer days with sore feet is a luxury and I appreciate that there is a company like Birki’s that cares about its customers enough to provide a shoe that is this substantial with a replaceable foot bed. The shoes themselves are in great shape and I have only had to replace the foot bed recently. A little hint, the Profi-Birki foot bed fits into this shoe and I have found them to be both more comfortable and more durable than the one that comes with it. Finally, I have to say that being able to toss these into the dishwasher or washing machine to get them sparkling clean is a huge plus. Way to go Zappos for carrying this awesome work shoe.

I wear a 38 in all my Birkenstocks but these shoes, which were 38, were enormous

I liked the fit and feel of these shoes. The problem was that the material doesn't breathe, and so they make your feet sweat, a lot. Also, the style is a bit frumpy and the material is ugly. The Birkenstock footbed is dreamy though.

I've never owned a pair of birkis, and after trying several pair (thanks Zappos!) these still are not 'the ones'. I went with 7 - 7.5, even though I 'always' wear an 8. These clogs were still too large, both in length and width. The arch and toe bar hit in entirely the wrong place on my foot. Hopefully I can find a 'winter' pair that fits!

They were too big and too small. Too wide and too short. My wife liked the way they looked. Not for me.

Nurse here of several years. I have four or five different work shoes and throughout the course of a month I alternate which ones I wear (sort of like muscle confusion helps in the gym). In the distant past I tried Dansko clogs but didn't like them one bit (too rigid like real wood clogs). I do however, wear and think Dansko Wil's are pretty darn comfortable. As well, several years ago, I started using Keens of all styles for work/play and love them. One of the Keen shoes I wear at work are the PTC Slip-Ons. On rare occasions I'll wear Crocs. For various reasons I like to wear at work, non-laced slip-ons and clog style shoes. I've never tried our Birkenstocks before and a few of my work shoes are in need of changing out. The cork footbed is their claim to fame and thought I'd give these Super-Birkis a try. Leather has it's maintenance issues especially in the healthcare field and the plastic based upper sounded like a good idea. So..... despite being a plastic shoe these things weigh quite a bit, are pretty rigid, and they fit very loosely across the top of my foot. Meaning that my foot had a lot of room to move fore & aft which therefore meant my toes kept jamming up against the front of the shoe. There is no way to adjust the fit over the top of your foot to prevent this. I guess one could wear super bulky socks, but I don't want to buy new shoes that also require me to have to hunt for new socks too. Besides, at work I wear compression socks which are much thinner than athletic socks. And about their weight, if I was just standing around all day that may not be an issue, but adding in their poor fitment means they were constantly flopping around and my feet were slipping all over the place inside the shoe uncomfortably while I was walking around my house for a few hours. I couldn't imagine running to a code with them. And about that rigidity, the heal cup edges aren't forgiving in the slightest while your foot is moving all over the place. When you step down that rigid plastic around the heal and also in the toe box is sure to cause some severely uncomfortable sores from all the rubbing and scraping. I'm returning them right now.

Usually wear a 40 but with this insole made them too small. I have an old pair i bought used at estates sale that look slightly different (no insole) so assumed these would be the same but were not. Maybe next size up will work.

ouch - I had hoped the shoe would be good for work but it kills my toes and I cannot tolerate to wear them. Wasted my money. I think because it doesn't come in half sizes, my toes hit the hard front surface and makes raw even with socks on. I would get a size larger but am afraid it would be too big. I probably will not order shoes on line again, but was really amazed how fast the order came. Thanks Sunny

As a nurse with plantar fasciitis I struggled to find a shoe that I could work 12 hrs in comfortably. Here I am ordering my 2nd pair after my first just wore through. These shoes start out extremely stiff and like you’re walking in a cardboard box but I can promise you they’ll eventually be comfortable and cure your feet issues. My plantar fasciitis is basically gone. I wore these throughout an entire pregnancy, working 4-5 12hr shifts/week and they fit my 600lb life swollen feet at the end, too. Highly recommend. And true to size.

On my second try I got the right size. These run very big. I do love them -- especially the dark blue color!

I love these clogs. However, I had to return the first pair and get a size smaller. Now I am set!

The light blue shoes are so cute! I’m a Women’s 9 wide - really wide - and the 9 fit perfectly. I wear socks with these around the house. It’s important to get them a bit loose because of the clog style - you want plenty of room on the footbed for a good fit.

The only reason I am returning these shies. I got the wrong size. This will be my daughter’s second pair. She absolutely loves these shoes. She waits tables and is on her feet for hours a day all other shoes only last 2 months. These made it 5 months!!!

These are fantastic garden shoes -- my wife and I each have these for going out in the yard.

Comfy all day. I am a chef & on my feet 12-18 hrs per day. The comfort is unbelievable. No back pain. It takes a sec to break them in but after… it’s pure joy.

Fit well like other Birkenstocks… cute and durable for running out to the garden, going to the mailbox ( heck I’ve even mowed the lawn in them!). Bought my same size as usual. Does my husband laugh at me? Yes!

Needed a house shoe that has lots of support, not too flexible and can handle a short trip to the herb garden or wood pile. Removable footbed means I can use my orthotics. My feet are different sizes due to healed fracture so generous fit is nice.

I just love Birkenstock and these are always by the back door to take out the garbage even when it is raining. I take them on the RV for camping and can slip them on and off to fuel up or... They are durable and waterproof to about 2 inches.

I love these gardening clogs!
