Sizing, fit, comfort are awesome. Tobacco color in this style--no---too light and looked dry or need of leather conditioning. Returned.

I like this 3-strap styled a great deal. However, I have a medium width foot and these were way too wide. I don't think they come in the narrow, which is what I need in Birks. Sadly, they have to go back.

Unfortunately, I'm still not sure about these Birks. I really like the look of shined leather but that's only available in the Birkenstock Flor 2 which is a SYNTHETIC leather upper. These are real leather but oiled and thus dull. I went with these because I was afraid the synthetic- though more aestheticlly pleasing to me- would be stiff and cause blisters. Real leather seemed the better option. But... I'm not thrilled with their look. For now they sit in my closet while I wait for the Flor 2s to arrive and can make a better decision. All in all, I'm disappointed. I wanted to love them.

This style is super cute on but the straps are still rubbing the top of my feet. I've put leather conditioner on them but it doesn't seem to help. I think over time they will soften. I could have used a narrow but no one had them. I have a narrow foot but was able to adjust all 3 straps to get a good enough fit. I'm giving them 4 stars because of the comfort of the straps but it may not bother others. But they are really cute & I get lots of compliments on them. I don't see this style very often which I like! As long as these are going to last they are definitely worth the money!

These shoes take a bit of breaking in but then are very comfortable and supportive. The three straps really allow you to adjust it to your foot however I do feel like the third strap can be a little uncomfortable at times. I think I should have tried on the two strap before making my purchase to compare.

I like these. I've had several pairs of Birks before, and these seem to be commensurate to those in quality and style. They are supposedly "soft footbed"- I only noticed an ever-so-slight increase in softness, but that could just be me. They felt a little big (I ordered my normal size of Womens 11 M), but that's no big deal. Overall, a keeper!

I love Birkenstock and these would have been my 4th pair. For some reason these ran less wide than the Papillo's even though they are same style. Maybe someone can work on that! I love the Papillo's but I wanted a solid color! So sending these back, regrettably.

Previously, I have owned the Milano Birkenstock sandals, which are sized unisex. The Florida sandal has the exact same footbed, but apparently because it is intended for women, the straps across the top are shorter, so I needed to add an extra hole for a couple of them. Now they fit great. I ordered the oiled leather in brown, and I wear them with socks, and they are staining my white socks brown where the straps go over them. This is diminishing as I wear them more, but it is annoying.

These fit very differently than my current pair (identical shoe and size). The footbed was very hard and the arch support was much too high for me. The shoe was painful to wear because of this high arch.

Fit was ‘off’ from my other Birks. Disappointed in how I received product. It looks like it was packed in a plastic bag and thrown in the packing box with another pair of shoes. It looked damagez. Did not receive in its original Birkenstock box.

The size fits true to size, I loved the look and fit on my foot. I gave a lower rating because the leather straps are very stiff. I could tell I would have blisters by the end of the day.

The footbed of the right shoe scraped the side of my foot with every step. I don't like the new width system of Birkenstock. I have worn them for years. This was my first pair of soft footbeds and they weren't as soft as I hoped.

The fit was adequate but the style was unflattering and a little uncomfortable. I will stick with my mayoris!

This style does not come in the narrow width. Other reviews say to cinch the straps and it helps with width. This was not true for me. Love this style and wish Birkenstock would make it in a narrow width.

They were comfy but did not stay on feet as well as they should have without having to punch another hole. However Zappos fell short aa it was sent in a brown box with no authentic birks box or tag. I am not paying this kind of money and not even getting an authentic box.

The fit and support was great, consistent with all my other Birks, however the color I ordered (Tobacco Oiled Leather) looked nothing like the images on the site so i returned the shoes.

I’m sort of new to Birks, but this pair went back Zappos. The leather straps were just stiffer than I like and and I didn’t want to wait 3-4 weeks for them to break in. I have Birkibuc’s and velvet love them. I really like Birkenstocks, the colors are awesome and helps with the sandals to be a little feminine, thos not a real issue with me, but the colors are Great. So is Zappos

While the sandal was the correct size, it wasn't comfortable because it had very little arch support. I ended up sending this pair back and ordered the same style but in the Birko-Flor and it felt so much better!

I’ve worn Birkenstock years before and loved the but this shoe’s leather is way too stiff. I know that it will eventually soften but I don’t have the time. Also if you have a wide foot, it just didn’t fit right. The higher strap was to short for mr to even get my foot all the way in place. Sorry but just a disaster for me.
