I purchased these sandals for my mom, who was experiencing some balance problems. I thought the heel might make her more steady on her feet. She tells me that she is definitely feeling more secure when walking and loves her new shoes. I've since gotten her another pair of Arizonas, in the silky navy, which she adores. As always, thanks to Zappos for the excellent selections and service!

These are my 6th pair of Birkenstock arizona sandals. I’ve worn Birkenstocks for over 30 years and they are 98% of what I wear all year round (clogs in winter). However, these were my first pair with leather straps. All the others have been suede. Though the fit is 100% and the sandals are amazingly supportive and comfortable, I have found that the leather straps are much more stiff than the suede, and are still not broken in to my liking. I’m not sure I'd buy a leather strapped one again. Zappos.com is the best online store I've ever done business with and try to buy all of my shoes and my family's shoes with them. They are courteous, helpful and always more than generous with their customer service. Shipping is speedy and reliable.

I bought these sandals for my husband, and he loves them! Unlike his other sandals, the Birkenstocks do not stink up his feet. He'll probably wear these forever. I've had my pair for almost 10 years, so they are worth the price. As always, the customer service at Zappos was great.

I like these sandals. They feel very supportive and I have rather flat feet so that is good. I got a spot on them the first day so now they are not so pretty, but comfortable. I will try to get it out after I hear from the company how to do that without hurting the fabric. I wish Birks came in half sizes as some people like me differ in shoes sizes foot to foot. I also think we should be able to order different left from right size. They were expensive enough to warrant a great fit on both feet. My left is perfect. My right is a tad too big and my toes don't quite grip the toe bar.

I had a great experience with Zappos.com. It was easy to use their website to order on-line and the shipping was free and very fast. Very efficient customer service indeed which is seemingly more rare all the time! I will continue to use Zappos to find the shoes I am looking for and save time and money. Their selection is awesome, too! Thanks.

I bought these for my son for Father's Day. He loves them! He takes a size 8 mens, but they were huge for him. We sent them back and got the size 6 instead. It was perfect. This is his second pair and the only sandals he feels comfortable in.

Absolutely awesome. I am a college student, and comfort is a must walking several miles on foot every day through the college campus. I wear these sandals from the minute I wake up until I go to bed. These sandals wear like iron and just keep on getting better with time. I get very annoyed when I am forced to wear a pair of tennis shoes or boots, and I try not to. I even wear these during the winter months with snow on the ground. After 4 years of constant wear, Birkenstocks durability really shines through. I can't say enough good about these shoes and their never ending durability and support. I would give them 50 stars for comfort if I could.

Great shoes, been happy with them for years -
I just recently decided to replace my old pair of Birkenstocks - had been wearing them for about 10 years or more. Got the same pair I had before, and mmm, they feel good. These fit my feet particularly well, as I have wide toes.

Birkenstocks for my son -
He loves them...but the best part is doing business with Zappos. Their customer service is the best. I try to get all my shoes at Zappos.

Best Sandals for Comfort -
I bought these shoes because I needed some comfortable sandals to wear out and do a lot of walking in. I had some fake Birkenstocks in the past and I remembered how comfortable those were. I wanted the real Birkenstocks because I knew they must feel even better than a knock off pair. I was right. I love these shoes. I wear them everywhere and the break in period was about three days for me. Now, they just keep getting better with age. They are light weight and offer good support for my feet.

These sandals are great. I had to break them in for a few days, but they are the best sandals I've owned. I'm glad I visited a store first to try on Birkenstocks for size (they didn't have these sandals). These sandals are true to size, but this may be misleading because the vast majority of shoes in the US are not. For comparison: a Nike (which should be easily available wherever you are) 10Mens translates to a 41 in Birkenstock-land. (I'd say the Nike sizing is off, not the Birkenstock).

Great sandal - You can't go wrong with this sandal. Classic lines. Comfy footbed with great arch support. Adjustable straps give you the option of having a looser slip on, or you can tighten the straps slightly, and they just become part of your foot in the most comfortable way possible. I keep going back to buying more and more of this particular style, in different colors. I highly recommend these!

Great sandals - The longer you wear them the better they get. Birks stay the same because they have it figured out. They start feeling like they were made exclusively for your own feet and they wear and wear.

An Old Friend -
...as comfortable as an old shoe, but it's new. These shoes are comfy from the get-go. My teenage son loves them... they're the only sandal he wears. I have been wearing Birkenstocks for 30 years anyway. I recommend them for comfort, absolutely.

Shoes for life -
I believe I own every color you have ever made in this style, they’re like walking with no shoes on. Oh sure, I own other styles as well, but I always grab the ones that started me and hooked me. This past summer, I hooked my husband. He is wearing his first pair and I know they won't be his last... lol! Thank you for such a great product.

I thought I'd never own these, but...
I have always had a stigma about owning these shoes. I have often seen people (older mostly) wearing these, and usually with socks. How dorky. Well, in order to crack up some people at school, I bought a pair of the shoes that I said I would never own: the Dwight Schrute shoes. I have little or no arch and these are killer. It took a few hours to get used to the arch support, but now, I would never go back. They have surpassed the comfort level of the Doc Martens I used to own. Awesome shoes and great feel! (Just a kind of an FLS-Funny-Lookin' Shoe).

Love, Love, Love these shoes!
I wear size 8 ½ B shoes and bought the 39 narrow. Great fit. These are the shoes I go to when I want slip on comfort. I own the Bostons and they aren't as comfortable as these for some reason. I will definitely buy these again.

Birkenstock Arizona -
First order with Zappos...talked with customer service since I had a few questions about the shoe...he was very helpful...and as stated I received the shoes the following day. I was exceptionally satisfied with customer service as well as the shoe. I love wearing them in the winter with "fun" socks. And they are quite comfortable.

MY HUSBAND LOVED THEM!
I ordered these for my husband who hates to shop or go to stores... his old Birkenstocks were 12 yrs old and needed to be tossed... I wanted to get the taupe colored ones but not avail... the navy is fine and my husband loved them from the first moment he tried them on...

A great shoe!
Birks are the most comfortable shoe, hands down. I have a high arch and these conform perfectly to my foot's shape. The buckle/straps make it simple to adjust the width.

I love these and wear them around the house all the time. I'm on my second pair, because first pair are finally looking really bad, but love them because they are so comfortable. Foot doctor told me never to go barefoot after I broke my foot and I put them on first thing in the morning and whenever I'm home. I have the Nubuck leather.
