Birks never disappoint!! Mostly that's all I ever wear in the summer. These were the same size I always get, and they're fitting great. I like the three straps. It makes them a little "fancier." LOL!!

These sandals fit my wide feet perfectly, and they look good too. Very comfortable.

Love these. Get compliments all the time because they aren’t the normal design. They work with so many outfits!

Fit and size were perfect. I love that I can buy these shoes a second time 2 years later and they haven’t changed everything. Birkenstocks make my feet happy, no more plantar fasciitis!

I had to find a way to order these in the old way by European sizing because I am really a 6.5-7 and that was not an option in the new format. Thankfully I could go to the sizing chart and just pick a 37 which is perfect. I can already feel the changes with the sale of Birkenstock and I am worried this will not be good long term...been wearing Birks for decades. Please don't "improve" them, ie lower quality, higher price.

Favorite shoes - the Florida can be better for those with bunions as the straps aren’t as thick as the Arizona.

I have been a AZ and Gizeh devotee for years and the Florida style are as visually appealing and comfortable. Love the nubuck color/feel and the new soft footbed tech. Birkenstock represents the very best of German quality and natural style.

I'm a size 9 and supposedly a size 40 in the Florida Birkenstocks. They were too large. I've learned to get size 39, what they say is 8 - 8 1/2, and they fit me fine. I've gotten that style in size 39 in shoestores, but when Zappos said I should order 40, I got nervous, ordered that size and had to exchange them. I'm crazy about the Florida style and am sorry it doesn't get as much attention as Arizonas. I'm always afraid they'll be discontinued.

My first birkenstocks and I am in love. looking for sandal with some arch support these soft footbead Florida were perfect for mel However, everyone is different! the mayari and the arizona did not feel right. so buy numberous pairs and find the right one! Zappos return policy is superior.

I wavered on these for months and months because I wasn’t sure how they would look on my feet. I was looking for something a little more feminine than my Arizonas but I didn’t want anything between my toes. I also wanted a soft footbed and real leather. All my other Birks are narrows and these only come in regular so I wasn’t sure about the fit. Finally, I took the plunge. I wear an 8/8.5 in sneakers and other shoes, but I always wear 38/7 in Birks and Doc Martens so that’s what I ordered. They fit exactly as they should and they are very comfortable. I cannot tell that they are not narrows and they look really cute on my feet. I’m very pleased.

I have a pair of Arizona that I love and the Florida fit almost exactly the same. The straps are obviously different and I find that my higher arch was a bit awkward to find a fit for the middle buckle, but after a day of wearing them the leather loosened a bit and they're perfect now. The black leather did leave some black marks on my feet, but I am hoping that goes away with time. I tried the Granada because it also had a soft footbed, but I found that style to be a tad smaller overall -- shorter and narrower. That style is definitely cuter than the Florida, but I would rather have a comfortable sandal.

I usually wear a size 37 Finn Comfort but in Birk
a 37 was too large and feared tripping on stairs.
Excellent arch support and no problem wearing
all day immediately. The oiled leather shoe is attractive and should wear well and look nice in the Spring, Fall, and Winter months. Very easy to return wrong shoes and I had a refund notice within 2 days.

I like the birkenstock florida because it gives great support and is very comfortable. I wish they were made in more colors.

I ordered the recommended 40, even though my 12 year old Birks were 39s. Had to send the 40s back, and the 39s fit just like the old ones.

I love these but... they did feel more narrow than the other Birkenstock’s I have. So going to try 1 size up & see which fit better. I’m usually a 7.5 in Nike shoes & get a 36 or 37 in Birkenstock’s since the sizing is wierd.

I love Birkenstock shoes and sandals, so I was excited to get these sandals. When I received them, I immediately tried them on and was sad because they were narrow in comparison to my other Birkenstocks that I have now. I had to return them. I'm looking for a different style that I hope will be wider (closer to the regular width that I choose).

Wonderful shoe. One of the few shoes I can wear with my bunions. (The straps also virtually hide my bunions!)

Wear an 8 - 8.5 in most shoes and always wear a 7 - 7.5 in Birkenstock sandals. Ordered the 38 (7-7.5) and the fit is perfect. Love the soft footbed and the leather on these is incredible. Most comfortable Birks I've ever owned and super cute! Will buy another color in the leather. Zappos service continues to be the best around

I love Birkenstock’s! The Florida’s are my favorite, they feel secure on my feet and the soft footbed involves no break in time, the more I wear them the more comfortable they get. I can walk around in birks all day and come home without my feet hurting.

These are true to Birkenstock's sizing and comfort. Fit well and were comfortable out of the box. This is the third style I've had of Birkenstocks and these are equal favorites to the classic Arizonas. The three thin straps make them a little bit dressier and they're cute with dresses and shorts/pants alike. These are definitely a summer staple.
