I've never liked the way Birkenstocks look but wear them because I've developed foot issues and Birks are the most comfortable. I bought this style after seeing a lot of people wearing them. They are so comfortable and my feet feel great in them. I ended up sizing down. My previous pairs (mayari and professional work clog) were too big in my usual size 37 (my us size is 6.5-7). Size 36 is perfect for me. I always had a gap between the back and my heel (which I've learned is not right with Birks). Very happy with my purchase!

Love these shoes. These are my second pair. They are very comfortable and feel secure on my foot as I walk. I have very bad plantar fasciitis that keep reoccurring so the stability and arch support are really helpful. I can go for long walks with these and they don't hurt or cause my plantar fasciitis to flare up.

Such a great sandal! They take about 2 weeks to conform to your feet and for your feet to adjust to wearing these, but it is worth it! Also, if you wear a half size, purchase the size smaller not larger. I usually wear a 9 and 1/2 or a 10 in other shoes and the 9 to 9 and 1/2 sandal fits me perfectly.

This is my 7th pair of Birkenstock sandals! I love them. I am having a very hard time finding the Gizeh Birko-Flor in navy blue, but I bought this instead and they are beautiful. These sandals are worth every dollar. I have so many because I buy a new pair every year, but I keep my old pairs for camping and working in the yard. Awesome sandals!

This is my first pair of Birks and they did not disappoint. Per another reviewer's advice, I tightened the strap which made the little bit of toe discomfort go away. The older I get the more I appreciate the positive impact that a good sole can have on my feet and back. It's a very good sign that when I get home at the end of the day I don't immediately step out of these to put on my slippers. I love this style as I've never felt that the traditional (Arizona) Birks fit my personal style but these definitely do for summer...shorts, skirts, jeans, etc. Breaking in was minimal at best.

The most comfortable sandal I've ever owned. I was so happy I almost slept in them the first night. The soles have molded around my feet in perfect harmony

LOVE my Birkenstock Black patent leather sandals. i was afraid they would look too hippyish but they actually look good and I've had many compliments. I originally tried on the black on black Birkenstocks but they weren't nearly as comfortable as these.
The service was excellent and I received the shoes the very next day. Can't say enough about how helpful the Zappos team are!
Best online service I've ever had.!!!

Hello! I got my Birkenstock Gizeh as an exchange from my Mayari and so far am in love with it. Since it's summer I've been using it a lot. So perfect so comfortable and so light. My feet feels happy and great. So I really highly recommend Gizeh, it's perfect and you'll not regret. Hurry up while summer is still here.

Somewhat uncomfortable and stiff at first, but I find I'm getting used to it. Like the looks a lot!

Love these! The golden brown has a little shimmer to it and they are super lightweight. Give them a little time to break in with the plastic toe thong but these are my favorite pair of birks to date. Also love that they offer it in narrow width-these fit my feet much better than the normal width.

I LOVE these shoes. I've never had a pair of Berk's before - thought they were too "earthy" for me but these are so cute and comfortable! I wear an 8.5 shoe normally and the 8-8.5 fits great!

Absolutely LOVE these shoes!!!! They are the most comfortable shoes ever and are very light weight. I get compliments on them each time I wear them (everyday) and the silver matches everything. I initially ordered the narrow, but it didn't quite fit my foot. Still need to return those but luckily Zappos is amazing and I can return them for free. I ordered these Birkenstocks and they were at my door by 5:00 the next day. They are very attractive shoes and do not make your feet look big at all. I usually wear 8.5 - 9 shoes and I ordered a 39. Perfect fit.

I love these shoes. This is the second pair ove owned. However- they had stiff arch support, so it takes getting used to. They might be uncomfortable for the first few wears. If you have arches, it will go away after day two or three. If you have VERY little or no arch, these are probably not going to be good for you. Keep that in mind.
Also, they run a bit big. I'm a size 6.5-7. I order a 6 Rac time(SS 36), and they are big, but a 5 would be too small. They only make whole sizes.

Love the shoe. However, the tong between the big toe and second toe is not leather, it's plastic and hurts mu big toe. At first I thought I could wear it in but realized it was plastic not leather.

These are my first pair of Birks, and I love them! I am a Pilates instructor and I think a lot about the feet, and how proper positioning of the feet can help with hip and back problems. These really do keep the feet in good alignment. I have high arches and only want to wear shoes that have good arch support. These have great arch support which helps me not to probate. I also have a small bunion on one foot, and these cute sandals don't put any pressure on it. They stay on your feet well, and are nicely adjustable for fit. They might need just a little getting used to/ breaking in, but I can tell already, after wearing them only once or twice so far, that they are very comfortable and will be my favorite sandals. And, they're so on trend right now. My normal size is a 6 1/2 or 7, and the 36 is perfect. I got the black, and might get another color!

So comfortable and will go with many different styles. I know some don't like the toe pin but it doesn't bother me.

Comfortable shoe, excellent price; not as comfortable as a mephisto but it is a fraction of the price.

love them - worth the price - they run big so I am a 7 71/2 and went with the 37 even though they recommend 38. Have a pair of knockoffs - not the same - these mold to your feet and I wore them almost everyday when I walked around Europe for 3-10 miles a day!

Love the look of these sandals. The thong DID bother me when I first tried them on but the look won me over so I thought I would just deal with it. A day or so later, the thong did not bother me. However, then I went on a medium length stroll along a river path, and the thong was REALLY painful. These sandals are an easy summer shoe if you are not going to be doing a lot of walking.

One of my friends has this sandal and loves them. They look cute on her. The sole is comfortable, but this shoe is unattractive on me. Because I have a wide foot, I have to set the strap on the next to last whole. The center piece that comes up from between the toes is then off center on my foot. If the center strap had a loop around the top strap so it could stay straight when the top strap is loosened, that would solve the problem. Unfortunately, I am sending them back.

I followed the suggested size and it was enormous. I'm a true size 6, rarely a 6.5 and I ordered the 37 and it was huge. Like two sizes too big.
