Customer Reviews Birkenstock Gizeh - Birko-Flor™ & Birkibuc™

Runs big, I'm a 7 bought the 37, overall a great shoe. I love them. The color is not a bright red, it's more muted.

I love these shoes! I am not typically a Birkenstock wearer but I saw these on someone and thought they would be a good replacement for my regular flip flops. At first they are a bit stiff but once they mold to your feet they are heaven to wear. The comfort of these sandals is beyond compare. And, of all the Birkenstock styles, these are the only ones I would wear. Perfect for a summer day at the park or even walking around the city for hours. My only complaint is that I noticed a small crack in the cork is forming and I have had them just under a year. I would expect these to last for many years but it doesn't look this pair will.

This is the most comfortable sandal I have ever worn. I love it. My first pair lasted through three long summers of constant wear. The titanium color is difficult to see clearly on the screen. It has a definite greenish tint in some lights. I am fussy about fit. I usually take a 6.5, regular width. My Birkenstocks are a 36 in the "regular" width (which is wide), and fit perfectly.

These sandals are my favorite! I got the golden brown color and it goes with everything, the first few days they were a little uncomfortable but I wore them around the house and now a few weeks later they are perfect, I was a little concerned about the size because I always wear a 5 1/2 and have narrow feet, according to zappos that would be a size 36 but after I read the reviews I ordered one size smaller so the size 35 fits perfectly fine. I've had no problem with the plastic thong and no blisters. My only problem was that ups delivered my package to the wrong house 3 houses away but luckily my neighbor called me and gave it to me. Overall great experience with zappos.

So comfortable and cute. They do take a bit to break in. I ordered them a size up after reading other reviews. (I normally wear a 7.5 to 8 and ordered a 39.) They were huge and I quickly ordered a 38 and they are perfect. the free shipping option is so speedy, I received them within 3 days. Love 'em!

I love these shoes! They do take some time for be to break in, like my other Birkenstock sandals each sumner, but once I get used to them they make such a difference. I have moderate back pain when on my feet or walking for more than five hours in the day, but these will allow me to keep going up to seven hours without noticing much pain. They are great for traveling. Although they are slightly bulky, I have found that they can easily pair with more casual dresses/skirts in the summer, especially maxi dresses without looking too awful. I would size down though. I normally wear a 9½ and have wider feet. I ordered a 39 (what they say is a 8-8½) in the regular width.

I bought these to replace a pair I had that were lost by the airlines. I love them! The color is a pearlescent cream and goes with everything. I wear a 9 1/2 and purchased this in a size 40. They fit perfectly and didn't need any break in time. Maybe because my feet are used to wearing this brand. They have great arch support and help a lot with my plantar fascilitis.

This is my first pair of Birkenstocks and I love these shoes. My feet were hurting walking barefoot on a tile floor all day, and these definitely fixed the problem! They are also super comfortable. They are not too cute, but I do wear them with sun dresses to the store and such.

I love Birkenstocks! I realize they are not for everyone, but I have been wearing them since high school and I love them! This pair was very cute and exactly what I wanted. Please do yourself a favor and break them in before going on any long walks. They need to mold to your feet first. Thank you Birkenstock and Zappos!

I love the way they look and the way they feel! The arch gives me the added support my feet need and still looks stylish, not at all clunky, the silver goes with everything and I have gotten a lot of compliments. Between the toe took a little adjusting and felt a little thick at first. I also have a pair of navy blue Birkenstocks in a different style. I am a true Birkenstock fan! They are so comfortable!

Love these Birkenstocks - great price on them. Beautiful color for spring and summer. Got them next day. Went down a size and they fit great.

I have worn the traditional Birkenstock styles for a number of years and love the value. This year I decided to try some of the newer styles. I bought this one and have loved them. They are very comfortable and are holding up well. I would recommend that you try them.

Love these! Looking good and comfortable as always. Was not sure I would like the faux leather upper but its soft and the slight shimmer looks great.

Bring bandages with you the first couple times you were them. No major blisters, but your feet have to get used to them. Same great quality and consistency of Birkenstock. Cute Sandal!

Got my first pair of these when I was pregnant with my daughter. They lasted me over two and a half years of constant use. Just bought another pair. I have bunions and there is just nothing more comfortable.

Total Birkenstock comfort, at long last styling! Getting rave reviews from all my friends on the style and most especially on the fabulous baby blue patent leather. Somebody at Birkenstock went to marketing class. :)

I had the same silver pair of Birks for several years. I wanted to get another pair, but different color. This dark metallic grey is more beautiful than the picture and matches my LV bag? Yes, I wear Birks and carry a LV bag as a New Yorker. This Birk is a great walking sandal. If you want a stylish pair of Birks, these are one to consider!

I usually wear a 7 1/2 (which coordinated to a European 38) but I ended up needing the 37. This shoe is amazingly comfortable, there is so much support I can walk in these all day. I just ordered a second pair in another color for summer.

I loved them right out of the box! I'm glad I didn't order a size smaller as some folks had suggested. I'm six feet tall with size 11 feet, and the size 42 is perfect. I've been wearing some Earth thongs recently, so the plastic piece between the toes doesn't bother me at all. If you're new to Birkenstocks I strongly suggest wearing them around the house for a while to get used to them. A long walk in brand new Birks probably isn't the best idea. Once they're broken in, though, they're the most comfortable shoes out there. I said to my husband, "Now I remember why I used to love Birkenstocks!" These are especially cute. I'm VERY happy with them!

I LOVE these shoes. They are so comfortable! It took me about a week of light wear to break them in. At first, they actually hurt my feet a lot. They rubbed in weird places and my feet felt sore after I wore them. I almost didn't believe in the Birkenstock way, until suddenly they became the most comfortable sandals I've ever worn. It's hard for me to decide to wear other sandals now because they just aren't as comfortable! I got them in titanium and I'm so happy I did. They go with everything and are cute and stylish. I'm 23- Birkenstocks aren't just for older people! The Gizeh style is awesome. Easy to slip on and off but not at all like a regular flip flop. They don't make the flip flop sound and you don't have to hold on with your feet when you walk. The strap over the arch is far back enough that it holds the shoe securely on your foot. I originally ordered the Cairo style, but didn't like the ankle strap, so I exchanged them for the Gizeh, and I'm so happy I did! Seriously considering buying another pair in a different color! Sizing note- I usually wear a 9.5 in woman's shoes, but I have these in a 39, which is smaller on their conversion chart.

I cannot rave about these sandals enough. They are the most comfortable, versatile, and well built sandals I've ever owned. I want more colors but don't know if I can adequately justify multiple birks in one wardrobe. I will buy a new pair as soon as these expire but I hope that won't be for a long time. My only advice is that they get even more comfortable with wear so make sure you give yourself time to break them in. I ordered up but think I could have easily ordered down in the European sizing.

This is my third pair of the Birkenstock Giza sandals. They are so comfortable and the colors are true to the picture as far as the ones I've bought. One thing to keep in mind with all Birkenstocks is to never leave them next to anything hot or in a hot car (etc) because the black bottom will shrink and pull away from the cork bed. Just something to keep in mind if you live in a very warm climate, otherwise I love these sandals and they are cute and comfortable for walking long distances.

I absolutely love the look. However, the between the toes divider is made of plastic and thick...probably cheap plastic. I needed to take these shoes to my shoe repair store and spend some money to have them replace the toe divider with a leather and very comfortable toe divider. So I would not suggest purchasing these until you are able to actually try them on and feel comfortable.

This is my second pair of Gizehs. I love them! So comfortable and they don't take long to break in. They look good with a pair of jeans and a cute top! I definitely recommend these if you are looking for something cute as well as comfortable.
