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

This is my 6th pair of Gizeh. Birks are the only shoes I wear 10 months of the year.

Absolutely love them! Very comfy and I like that they’re a little different style than the Arizona that everyone is wearing. Love the white, they go with everything. I’m usually a women’s 10.5 and the 41 fit perfectly. First pair of birks and first time wearing them I walked 4 miles in them (admittedly a bit ambitious) and part between the toe bugged me but now after wearing them a week and they seem to be broken in, no issue whatsoever…they’re crazy comfy! I wear them everywhere!

I love this style! I purchased the Silver Metallic and they are just adorable in style and color. I wish there were half sizes in Birkenstocks as I wear a women’s 11 shoe and the 42s run closer to 11.5. Highly recommend!

I'm usually a size 7.5 or 8 and ordered the 38. These were my first Birkenstocks (I bought them in 2015) and they were so freaking uncomfortable, I was very upset to have wasted so much money on them, so I kept wearing them and kept feeling very frustrated. Then... magically I was walking around and noticed I wasn't uncomfortable anymore, I had been walking for a long time and I was actually great! So I sat on a bench and examined the shoes and my foot had molded the footbed to fit me perfectly.... I guess this is what I had heard Birkenstocks did, but they were SOOOO uncomfortable I didn't believe it. Well... they're now a fabulous shoe, I wear them every spring/fall/summer since 2015 and bought myself a second pair for my birthday.

Love them! So comfortable- I can wear them all day long- on dog walks, standing in the kitchen for hours, etc. I read that they run a little big so I ordered a size smaller than I would normally wear and they're perfect. It did take me a few days to break them in- I wore for a few hours a day in the house and that pesky toe-thong that so many have mentioned is no longer an issue.

These are adorable! I’m wearing them around the house for a bit so they begin to mold to my foot. First pair of Birks!

After reading reviews, I decided to purchase both the recommended size and a size smaller (I wear US size 6 aka size 37). Size 36 fit perfectly. Living on a Caribbean island means you want as little on your feet as possible. As a result, I spent the last year of my life wearing Old Navy flip-flops until the pain in my feet got to be too much to bear. The Birkenstocks make every aspect of your foot feel supported while still keeping them cool (the aim here was to avoid having to wear sneakers for foot support). Because I am a person who worries about every single negative review, I would like to say that if you are used to wearing flip-flops, the piece between the toes will not bother you at all. However, if regular flip-flops bother you, then these shoes are probably not for you. Definitely get a size smaller. I had about an inch worth of room in the heel with the size Birkenstock recommends. These are good looking shoes, great comfort, even better price, plus free expedited shipping from Zappos. It does not get much better than that.

This was my second pair of Gizehs as my pair from 2009 are finally showing wear. I love them, fun color but still neutral as they are more of a navy then a royal blue! I am a 7.5 and the 38 in Birkenstocks fit great!

A must-have! I am a true size 10 medium and these fit perfectly in a 41 narrow. I got the white patent and they wipe clean very easily. There is a break in period so I was only able to wear these for a few hours at a time. Once they're broken in, they are amazing. The arch support is amazing and they look good with everything.

These shoes are great -- very comfortable and look nice. I can wear them with almost all of my summer wardrobe. Excellent shoes that have gotten increasingly comfortable as I've continued to wear them.

I wear a true 7.5 shoe size and I ordered the ONYX in size 38 Narrow and they fit perfect, just like my Birkenstock clogs. These took a few weeks to soften up unlike my Bern Soft Footbed clogs I own (which have a foam layer inserted between the cork layer), which were comfy after 5 minutes. But these didn't hurt to wear or break in. They'll be stiff and therefore the toe divider will be slightly uncomfortable but once the footbed softens up -- your heels will sink in, the toe box softens and everything comfortably flexes with your walk. They'll be the most comfortable shoes your feet have ever experienced! They just take time to soften up, all Birkenstock's do. Google Birkenstocks heel and toe placement to get an idea of how your foot should fit inside Birkenstocks, and to learn which width is right for you. For example: Narrow feet are often the same width up and down the length of the foot. Narrow feet are also narrow across the toes and across the instep (the top of your foot, where shoe laces tie together). Find the right size for you and Birkenstocks will not disappoint!

I bought an orange pair of these about 6 years ago in the UK. I love them. They have been to the beach, around town, to parties and around the house. Very versatile and comfortable.

These are my first pair of Birks, but know they won't be my last! I wear them practically every day now. I took the advice of others and ordered a size down. I wear a 7, ordered the size 37 and they fit perfectly. Although a little stiff at the beginning, they are extremely comfortable and supportive. Not to mention, Zappos has the best customer service and shipping! I received mine the very next day!

These sandals are very comfortable so far, although I haven't had a chance to do a lot of walking in them. I'm very glad I ordered them in Narrow width because they fit perfectly on my slim foot.

I love these sandals! They're very comfortable and form to your feet very quickly. I definitely recommend them.

Excellent choice for narrow feet. Also, the most comfortable straps inside. Inside is soft. Sizing is one size larger than stated. Order 1 size smaller than usual.

Oh my stars! What can I say?.... Lovely on the feet (both in feeling and in looks!) and classic Birkenstock durability. My favorite pair of sandals!

These sandals are fantastic, my feet feel completely supported. The color's exactly as it looks on the site, too, so very happy with this purchase. Have to also mention the amazing customer service rep that helped me with this order (was an exchange). I've never had service like that, where I felt I was talking to a friend. This is why I rarely buy shoes online from anywhere other than Zappos!

I love these in silver. Always thought Birkenstock sandals would be too wide for my very narrow feet, but these were perfect! If you have narrow feet, buy these, but save me a pair in copper! As usual great service from Zappos!

I have five pairs of these in different colors, have worn them for years. I wear them in winter sometimes with socks and summer. People compliment me on them and can't believe that they are Birkenstocks.

I read a bunch of reviews and finally picked size 37. I am 7½-8. Everything fit perfectly... except for my long toe. The sandals are sunken in and my toe constantly hits the ridge by the toeline. I returned these and since they did not have a 38 in black had to upgrade to the leather Gizeh Sandals. Even though I returned these I am still giving them five stars. They are very comfortable!

Ahh the comfort of a Birkenstock footbed, but the look of a pretty modern sandal. Even my teenage daughter wears these. Cuter than they look in the picture. So comfortable.

These sandals are wonderful. Very comfy with great support for a thong type sandal. Stylish too. As always, Zappos customer service people are phenomenal... many thanks!

I get these exact same shoes (in different colors) every couple of years. I love them. There's never any pain and I can walk and walk for hours in them.
