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

Love 'em. I purchased for solid foot support but I get compliments on the style every time I wear them.

These shoes are extremely comfortable, fit snugly (I was initially worried about the sandals feeling too loose or slipping off my feet), and best of all, they're cute! I normally wear a 12.5 Wide, but I fit into the 11-11.5 Regular just fine.

Bought this sandals because I do a lot of walking in the city. I tend to use fancy and stylish cute sandals in the summer but wa looking more for comfort and needed to own a pair of the Gizeh. The first few weeks it took my feet time to mold into the sandals my feet was a bit in pain. I then realized that I needed to adjust the strap to fit my feet a little tighter. This make a whole world of a difference and after a few months they are really comfortable. My friends said that it will get more comfortable with the time. This is definitely an investment worth making. This is a pair a will have my entire lifetime as Birkenstock offer a replace of the rubber bottom for a fraction of the sandal's price (still looking for a location of where to get this done in the future).

I bought these for my first trip to Europe. I wore them all day every day and have not looked back. Any chance I do not have to dress up and or it is not too cold, these will be on my feet. I love them. I have used mine for over a year, constantly, and they seriously look almost new. The quality of the material is fantastic.

I friggin love this shoe! I have it in the Bronze which looks great with my tan and in purple! Very feminine and comfortable.

I've never found Birkenstock's to be comfortable, but I have a high arch. The molded part of the footbed lands at the wrong place and it's not enjoyable at all to wear. Plus the edge of the shoe hits one of my toes (not any others - just one) so I'm constantly catching them. I ordered these hoping they would be unlike the others I've tried but sadly no. Going back.

I loved the look, been wearing Birks for years, but can't tolerate the thong.

These Birkenstocks are terrific! Very comfortable and stylish. And a good deal too!

I wear a 9.5-10, VERY narrow, and a very high instep. I loved the color of the shoe. I got the golden brown, loved the style of the shoe and with the buckle I could tighten it to just the right fit. The problem was the ridge in the shoe that comes across from the "thong" area. Hugely uncomfortable. Sorry to have to return them. I did order another style that has a toe holder, which worked out great.

Great sandals - they have been comfortable from the start. I will buy this brand again. This style is foot flattering. Zappos is a 5 star company to trade with!

These sandals are one of the best investments I've ever made. They are my house shoes, work/school shoes, my weekend shoes and my life shoes! They are durable and the antique lace has a subtle but beautiful sparkle. I'm glad I got this color instead of the white!

I have very flat feet so these shoes had to be broken into. About the third wear, they were comfortable and wonderful! I love them, and I highly recommend them for folks with flat feet!

I am a huge fan of these shoes! They may not work for everyone, but for my feet (with bunions) Gizehs are wonderfully comfortable. Although a little stiff at first, they quickly conform to the shape of the foot and feel better and better over time. I also think they are the best looking of the Birkenstocks.

I suffer from plantar fasciitis and my physical therapist recommended these as a summer shoe as I couldn't imagine being in a tennis shoe all summer - I love these shoes. They provide the best support especially because the buckle allows me to keep it tight across my foot so my toes don't have to do any work to keep it on my foot. Now looking for a cuter pair.

The toe tab is a little thicker than most flip flops so it takes awhile to get used to. For a sandal the arch support is great.

This is the second pair of Birkenstock Gizehs I have owned (the first lasted for 5 years), and I adore them. They are immediately comfortable and I've found I can walk for miles in them without a second thought. I might need another pair in silver or patent leather. A note about size: Normally I wear a size 7.5 (though depending on the shoe I can also wear a 7 or an 8). I ordered these in a 37 (which corresponds to a 6-6.5) since that was the size of my first pair, which I tried on in a store, and they fit just fine. In short, my suggestion is to order small if you are in doubt.

A great buy! I love the arch support offered by Birkenstocks, and these are a more stylish alternative to the traditional Birk sandal look. I was a little worried that the toe piece would be uncomfortable on these shoes, but they were great right off the bat.

Love these sandals. First pair that have the strap between the toes and I can tolerate them as the leather is so soft. I get lots of compliments on the color.

Fantastic shoes! I wear them almost every day. Just enough arch support and they don't get stinky like Chaco or Teva sandals.

A couple things, since the sizes are only full size, I rounded up. Also, after the first 2 days of wearing them my feet killed, I actually had to take a break from them, but once I finally broke them in, I love them. I live in a city and walk everywhere in them!

These shoes survived two weeks of vacation at the beach and in Shanghai, China. I didn't have any problem walking around all over hot and sweaty Shanghai. I did have to break them in, though. I got a nasty blister in between my big toe and second toe on my right foot after a few days of wear (at home, breaking them in). They were fine after that.

I ordered size 40, which is size 9, but it felt a full size larger so I exchanged it for a 38. Zappos was lightning fast in shipping of both pairs and crediting my return. I love this versatile, comfortable and classy-looking sandal!

Love them. I was ordering a pair for my father and started reading the reviews. I decided to order these for myself. The customers who said they helped with plantar fasciitis were 100% correct. I have a heel spur and after wearing these for about three weeks I can no longer feel the pain in my heel. The do take about 3 weeks to break in, but once they do they are great.

I'm not always comfortable in Birkenstocks but these are great. I got the width that the company calls "narrow" (the foot icon on the insole is filled in) but fits an American "b". They needed no break-in (the leather is sturdy but very pliable) and the thong couldn't be more comfortable. These are my fav flat, casual sandals.

Great shoes! Ran a little small; I ended up with a full size down from what I normally wear. They are very comfortable and supportive though, I wear them for walking around in the city and they are probably the most comfortable pair of shoes I own. Also cute and trendy; they look good with everything!
