I absolutely love these. So comfortable. The color was lighter than I expected but still great. I do feel like Birks have gotten narrower over the years and don't offer quite the arch support they once did, but I still like these a lot and they have much better arch support than so many sandals out there. I would buy these again.

I've never been a Birkenstock fan, but foot problems have caused me to reconsider. They're oddly comfortable for cork bricks and I actually kinda love the Florida style (don't look like Jesus sandals!)... just having a hard time fitting them for a variety of foot reasons.
It's a bit of a Goldilocks situation: 41 Regular is too big and the straps hit my forefoot in bad places; 40 Regular is a smidge too small and narrow.
Someone suggested trying 41 Narrow (even though my feet are wide) because this can allegedly behave similarly to a half size? Still waiting on arrival of those, so can't say how true this is. Fingers crossed because it's a cute shoe - even on big feet.
Thank heavens for Zappos because a lot of stores don't stock "extended sizes" and I'm having to try on a BUNCH of shoes to find something -- anything -- that fits my unhappy feet.

Confirmed that I need to stick with the Arizona unisex style because the women's only styles like these run too narrow for a wider foot, even if the size is accurate for length

Bought these to replace a 20 year old pair. Have always found this style the most comfortable and the new soft footbed makes them even more awesome! Worth the investment. Will have them for decades!

These are far more comfortable than my previous birkis. I purchased the m/w and they are definitely wide enough. Highly recommend them to anyone who is on the fence. Well worth the price in both quality and comfort. O! I have plantar fasciitis on both feet and these feel great!

True to size. Fit exactly as my old ones which is comforting seeing as sizes seem to be running smaller depending on country where manufactured.

The right fit perfect but the left was tight. This is my 4th pair so I am sure I will break them in and they will fit great just like the others.

I’ve had many pairs of Birkenstock sandals. This pair replaced the exact same style as my first pair 30 years ago. When I got this pair, my husband shaved off the sharp edges of the leather which makes them more comfortable to wear.

I tried on a pair of these sandals last year and even on the most loose adjustment, my feet would not fit. I wanted to try them again as I love this style and these are AMAZING! The ones I previously tried on must have been in narrow because my feet are extremely wide and these fit so well! The soft footbed is so worth the extra money as well. There is literally zero break in time and they feel so good on my feet! Highly recommend these to anyone who had super wide feet like myself!

I have had this shoe before, this time the shoe is to narrow for me. Aging feet change! Darn.

Beautiful shoe and I have owned several Birks before. This shoe is not a good fit for me, but in the past it was just fine. I have trouble getting a shoe that fits well.

Perfect from day one. Fit - exactly right and comfortable all day. Love the soft footbed. Habana oiled leather - classic Birks.

Be specific about your likes and dislikes. How was the fit and size? What does the material feel like? How awesome (or not) do you feel wearing them?

I really love these shoes/sandals. I previously had a pair of these sandals and wore them every chance I got, but they were destroyed by one of my cats. Cat is fine, sandals, not. I'm a happy owner of a new pair (cat was letting me know I really needed a new pair). If you're a half-size, order down. For example, I'm a 7.5 so I wear a size 38.

Birkenstocks are one of those quality items you purchase with confidence. My new shoes did not disappoint! I liked the new style and the fit was perfect.
