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

Great shoe - I really like these shoes. I've been wearing them almost every day.

Gizeh's great! I recently purchased the Gizeh in a bright blue color. They will look great with my summer outfits. I've only worn them a few times, but they are really comfortable. I have no arch so the extra support really helps. I have small feet and wear a 5 - 5 1/2. The 35 narrow size fits perfectly. I have 3 pairs of Birkenstocks and will continue to buy more because of the comfort.

I love the shoes. The center piece doesn’t bother my toes. They look super cute. Only complaint is they are slightly big. Ordered my usual size 36 (I wear Sz 6 reliably) and they are slightly too long. Not returning them bc I don’t think smaller size is available. I have a pr of Birks in Mayari style in Sz 36 and they fit perfect.

Several of my friends have these shoes and they swear by them. I thought I would try them out but the hard toe piece was not for me. I have several sandals with toe thongs, but the hard plastic in this style was a no go. I returned them for the Mayari -and that style worked better for me. No issues with the toe piece, very comfortable foot bed, nice feeling leather.

Fit well enough for my narrow feet. Looks a little crunch granola-y but still, in this color, I think it was a good compromise for comfort and fashion. They worked really well with day dresses in Rome and Sicily-I looked cute (I thought and Europeans seem to love them--they were everywhere) AND had a supportive fairly comfortable shoe to wear in the heat while sight-seeing and shopping.

Purchased at 8 mos. pregnant when no other shoes fit and the warm weather set in. Nice amount of support, adjustable, comfortable to walk in and the color goes with *everything*. Was never a Birkenstock person but desperate times introduced me to my new favorite sandal.

The Birko-flor is much softer/more comfortable than the leather Gizeh. Takes a bit of breaking in until the footbed really forms to your foot and is truly comfortable. The shoe size runs a bit big. I always wear a 9, but ordered the 39 (US Women's 8-8.5). Perfect fit.

I was excited about getting these but the toe post was not comfortable for me at all. I returned them - they were nice looking.

They run a size large. I bought them, love them, but I ordered a 39 as my other Birks are but these are just a size to large. I have a wide foot and the regular are perfect. Other than that they are awesome! As far as the exchange, they don't have my size in the color I like (copper) so either I'm stuck with them...or I can wait it out.

These shoes were uncomfortable, even painful, at first but seem to be improving. Just don't start out by wearing them all day. I do love Birkenstocks, though, so I haven't given up on these.

Shoe looks as pictured. Fits well and is comfortable. I am an old Birkenstock person, this being my first new shoe in a while. I thought the old Birkenstock were more supple. This one feels stiff and the inner sole hard. Maybe it will soften. Also, the strap is rather stiff and not the nice suede the old ones were made of. I would have purchased the more expensive one if it did not cost so much more. Nice that this one is in narrow, fits a narrow foot well. Not many shoes come in narrow.

This is the first pair of Birkenstock's I've bought in years, and I really like the style and comfort of this sandal. The narrow fits perfectly. I wasn't sure about the color, but it goes well with other stuff in my wardrobe and actually looks classy. I've gotten several compliments on these. The only thing I'm not crazy about is that the top part of the strap hits my big toes, so I can't wear them too soon after a pedicure. Would be nice if it was a bit more tapered at the top.

Sizing - I ordered these shoes for a friend as a gift. I’ve had my own Gizeh pair for eons. Her shoe size is a 7, so I purchased a 38 for her... TOO big. Kept them for me (I wear an 8, but the 38s fit me) and ordered 37s for her. She kept the 37s, but they're still a little big. I was a little disappointed that the shoe sizes were so inaccurate...

The piece between the toes is just too uncountable. I love how they look

Synthetic? Why on earth would Birkenstock charge this kind of price for something that isn't even leather. Just, no. Bring back more color choices in the quality leather we come to expect with Birkenstock.

I love these shoes but the piece between the toes is very uncomfortable. I don't understand why it is hard plastic rather than leather or even something rubbery. They are also a full size too big. :( That said...the pearl color is fantastic and I'm bummed that I'm not keeping them.

I'm still not sure about these sandals. I wore it for a week on vacation. And, it was kind of painful. I knew previous reviewers say that it will take some time. I love how they look though! Overall, I'm not sure if I recommend them.

Pretty disappointed. The materials used and quality are not as good as a pair I bought 7 years ago. The length is longer. The toe post is too far forward. They are too long, even though 38 is my usual size. Will be returning.

The post is so uncomfortable - doubt it will ever be ok so am returning!

This product falls below Birkenstock’s usually high standards. They broke on the first wear!

I got these for a family member, and they simply did not last. Just over a year and a half later, and they have fallen apart. The cork Sole is very brittle, and starks to crack. As expensive as these Birkenstocks were I will no longer buy or recommend these. Instead I recommend Keen Sandals !

I have an exact pair of these and love them -- I wanted a new pair and ordered the same size (identical). When they came I could immediately see they were MUCH narrower than a regular size. I compared them to the ones I own and they were much narrower. I was very disappointed I had to return them.

always wore gizeh same size always for years but for some reason this particular pair left shoe hurts my foot (toe) to the point I cannot wear it I think the one left shoe is defective

I love birkenstocks and these are no exception!! Fits nice and snug. So comfortable and recommended by my podiatrist. The style goes great with summer apparel.

First time to purchase Birkenstock anything....these sandals are my new favorite. May have to purchase a few more in different colors.
