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

Love this shoe. I do however have some issues with my right foot, mid toe region. I have mobility issues and major back, knee and hip issues from a MVA a couple of years ago. These toes are not working correctly and I’m not sure if it’s from the shoes or if I have new nerve issues. In the end. I like these shoes and will feel better when they’re broken in.

This is my second paid of the Gizeh shoes. I absolutely love them! Have them in Mocha and now in black. So comfortable and I get so many compliments wearing them!

I live in these sandals! They are hands down the most comfortable and supportive summer shoe I've owned. I've suffered from plantar facitis from flip flops in summers past but I can run around the city all day in these and my feet feel great. There is a little bit of a break in window as the cork molds to your feet and the leather softens. Also I followed the sizing guide but they felt too large so I ended up sending them back for a smaller size and the fit is much better. If you're on the fence- buy them!

I love these! I love them so much I'm seriously contemplating whether I could get away with wearing them to a wedding. Seriously. They're super comfortable for my wide, flat feet and so much better for you than flip flops. I have a collection of them that I keep by the door so I can throw them on to walk the dog, take out the trash, walk down to the store, etc. Love, love, love Birkenstock!

I'm on my sixth year with my Gizehs, and they are my favorite everyday summer sandal. I get so many compliments on them, they hold up nicely, and the Birko-flor upper shows practically no signs of wear at all. With any Birkenstocks, they take some decent breaking in for your feet to get used to them, and for them to mold slightly to your feet. They'll likely hurt at first, so just wearing them for a few hours at a time will help. Beyond that, and maybe this is just me, but I can't walk in them long distances. I wore them to walk around DC one day, and that was a big mistake - huge blisters on the bottoms of both of my feet, on the pad just below my toes. I just know about myself that I can't walk all day in sandals of any kind, because of the movement of the shoe. The only other caveat is to not get them soaking wet - the footbed doesn't like to be wet, and will dry kind of funky if they get soaked (I've learned this from previous pairs of Birks). I typically have to size down from the standard Euro-US conversion with Birkenstocks. I'm a 7 or 7.5 in most other shoes, but I get a 37 in Birks. That sounds like a lot of downsides, but honestly, these are the best sandals. They last forever if you take care of them, and once they're broken in, they're insanely comfortable.

I wanted a summer slide on sandal that looked nice and I could casually wear with almost anything and these are perfect! My feet are slightly wider than the regular shoes sizes and these work for me. They feel great in my feet.

I love these Birkenstocks! This is my 3rd pair and I will continue to buy these as long as they make them! Great arch support and they go with so many outfits!

I really love these shoes. I wanted to buy an identical pair to match my old blue-metallic pair that bit the dust from wearing them so much, but couldn't find that color. I ordered the black, they are great, but a bit boring compared to my old metallic blues! Also, I usually wear a 10.5 US size and ordered the 42. Unfortunately they are too big, probably by a full size, but I will wear them anyway. Wish I had ordered a size smaller. These shoes are so great for your feet. As other reviews have mentioned, they take a few days to break in, but then the are just wonderful!

This style is my favorite for Birkenstock!!! The plastic toe post if the shoe fits correctly will not bother you! I have serval pairs of Birkenstock shoes as well as Vionic due to plantar facsiitis I will continue to wear both brands! My feet never hurt!!!!!

they were a great fit and style. I absolutely LOVED how they look but, they leather piece between the toes is very thick and stiff. I tried a short walk with them but they caused a huge blister that tore days later and 1 week later I still cant wear my old flip flops. sad because I love them and the color is Beautiful!

Style

First pair Birkenstock and I’m sold. Super comfortable and stylish. Get compliments every time I wear them. Fits true to size for me. Love the color, will buy another pair in a different color.

I ordered a 39, which felt huge, way bigger than other size-39 Birks I have bought in the past. I returned them for a 38, which were still a little big, but I kept them. I have bought several pair of this style over the years - it's my favorite. I actually don't like buying leather and prefer to stick to synthetic materials, but unfortunately I have oddly-shaped feet and my options are limited. I bought a couple pair of the vegan Birks, but I dislike the material, and they don't have them in this style, so here we are...

I really like these. This is the second time I've ordered the same shoe. They're very comfortable for walking. I have narrow feet, so I like the fit of the narrow shoes better. The regular felt a little wide for me. Eventually the cork will probably crack, as someone else stated, but these shoes have a pretty long life.

Perfect buy .

Second pair in the style. the silver elevates the look. comfortable and all around awesome. was worried about the material since my first pair is leather, but not disappointed.

Love the color!

The fit was true to size I like the arch support as well that Birkenstock is known for. It is the owrvect summer sandal and gets more co Goryable as the sandal adjust to your foot !

This is my third pair! They’re so comfortable right out of the box, and after walking all day. Love them!

I'm a first time Birkenstock wearer and am now a convert. I really appreciate the arch support, especially as I deal with persistent heel pain. Would highly recommend to others.

The shoes are very comfortable and the patent leather is stylish. They run a little long so I ordered a size down.

These shoes are yummy! My first pair!

I absolutely love Birkenstocks, and this style and color is one of my favorites. It's extremely comfortable and fashionable. I wear my Birkenstocks all summer long. Just a warning though that if you gave never worn Birkenstocks they do seem stiff at first but you will break them in within a few days. And any "breaking in" that is needed is totally worth it.

I love my Birkenstock they have lasted me over 7 years. They are well worth the price. I have bought several different shoes from the Birkenstock brand and always have positive things to say their shoes.

This is my first pair of Birkenstocks in years, and I simply couldn’t be happier. Some reviews had me skeptical about the plastic between toes, but it’s not at all uncomfortable for me. In fact, I think the plastic means that these will hold up much better than my other pair of sandals these are replacing that do have leather in between toes. Leather may be slightly more comfortable, but it would break down far too easily for the amount of time I plan on wearing these. I cannot believe how comfortable a pair of sandals can be! Plus, they look good with pretty much any outfit.
