I liked them immediately, though the toe strap took a short time to adjust too. They get better as you wear them and the shoe molds to your feet.

These were my first pair of Birks (bought about a year ago) and I now wear them all the time. The are so comfortable I forget I’m wearing them when I get home. They fit true to size and help my high arch. I didn’t have an uncomfortable wearing period when breaking them in as other have said about Birks. I just ordered another pair of Birks I love them so much.

Best Birkenstock ever! I have six pairs of Gizeh and they are by far my favorite Birk Style. Great for anyone with Plantar Fasciitis. Very comfortable but you do need to break them in by wearing on and off for a few days. Love them!

These are awesome sandals. I wear them every day all summer long. They look great with shorts or dresses. I walk a lot and I am picky about shoe comfort, and these are easily the most comfortable sandals I’ve ever owned.

I love the look and feel, and I know they will last a long time. Love the color - the brown is dressed up to be casual or mire dressy. And Zappos shipping and customer service are always awesome!

I absolutely love these Birkenstocks!!!! I wear them all day to teach and they are so comfortable!!!
They did take a couple weeks to get used to between my toes (even though I wear flip flops daily) but after the first 2 weeks, I no longer even feel them between my toes.

These are a great summer shoe. Nice enough to wear with a casual dress. I got a lot of compliments.

I’ve bought these sandals, annually and in various colors, for almost a decade. Last summer I strayed and bought a different style Birkenstock. I loved them (because they’re Birkenstock’s) but I knew I’d made a mistake. This summer, back to the Gizeh!

I purchased my first pair of this style Birk in Germany in 1997, still perfect fit and high quality!

Trendy yet comfy sandals. After a full day I had some small blisters but think the sandals just needed to be broken in.

I have not worn them yet. I decide to save them as a Christmas gift from the big guy in Red. I live in Jersey and figured I wasn’t going to get a lot of wear in the next couple of weeks before it became Uggs weather vs Berks weather. My daughter has 3 pair; all in different colors and styles. I know that I will be very happy with my purchase.

I get comments about how great these shoes are...... Birks definitely get kids to Not think traditional Birks but I wore as what my Mom wore. Birk to me to me seems to have tuned into a New generation of kids wanting a More selection. xoxo

Fit is perfect. I’d say they are true to size.

I have the more traditional two-strap Birkenstocks but in an effort not to look like a hippy everywhere I go, I opted for these in the patent leather black in the same size (40), but with a narrow width. I usually wear a 9-9.5 in US sizes. I love these shoes. Yes, it takes a few days to adjust to the toe strap, but you can live through it. I exercise a lot, and have developed plantar faciitis as a result. I feel ZERO pain in these sandals, and could not recommend them highly enough.

Bought these in my usual size 7-7.5 (38) and they were too large, so I returned and bought in 37 - muuch better. I recommend buying a size down from my experience. Love these!!

This is my fourth day for these Gizehs - Regarding the plastic toe thong part -
First day - several hours of wearing, in between toes at the base were pretty sore. No calluses or blisters, just achey right at the v between the toes.
Day two, I wrapped the base of the the thong part with a strip of flimsy silacone from an old pair of toe spacers I had to buffer the thong and help the ache. Walked in them for about an hour on concrete.
Day three, put them on and the ache was gone, thong part not noticeable anymore. I think it's just a new sensation that in between your toes need to get used to... I did stretch the base of the flexible/plastic thong from side to side slowly and carefully a few times, flexing it, gently not to compromise the quality of the foot bed. I'm happy I hung in there.
ALSO GREAT NEWS - no plantar fasciitis pain from the weekend!!! I didn't even have to stretch my feet last night. That means, these are corrective as well as comfortable. It's nice to make sure the leather strap is snug, not tight of course. They feel really comfortable, snug and secure. Saving money to get some black ones (I chose Tobacco and they are nicely neutral, goes with much)
I forgot to mention, another reason I chose this shoe/sandal is because all of my black and navy darker colored rubber flip flops not only gave me great pain at end of day, but my feet were always discolored. From rubber! Yuk. This won't happen with foot bed on these -

Had to return the first order with my usual size becauee the rim of the shoe was scrunching my toes. I sized up and it took about 2 weeks to break them in. Very uncomfortable at first, but I knew they would be. Now they're my go to sandals. No back pain and no foot pain. I've had plantar fasciitis and have to be very careful when choosing shoes. Also, wide feet with bunions. I wear these to work and even around the house instead of walking barefoot to prevent foot and back pain. Very happy with these shoes. I got the licorice black. Very nice.

I Bought these for my 10 ye old daughter who is normally a youth 4. She sometimes can fit into a very small women’s size. First I tried the gizeh kids size 34 which only comes in narrow. She has a narrow foot. They were way to narrow although the length just fit. Living in New England I knew I wanted them a tad big so they fit her for a full year at least. So I returned the 34 kids and bought the adult regular width 35 which converts to a 4-4.5. She is a narrow and most shoes slip off unless they have ties but seeing how narrow the kids version was I am so glad I went with regular width because you can tighten the buckle just fine. They are perfect! And she finds them very comfortable. The women’s 35 is definetly equal to a youth 4/4.5 in American shoes for a 10 year old

I went to a pediatrist for an Achilles bone spur. He recommended Birkenstocks because of the arch supports. The price is good compared to SAS shoes.
