Clogs -
I have 2 other pairs of Birkenstocks, I have the clogs with fur inside and the Arizona style (the 2 straps). I got them in green and the color is great, and I find it looks best with lighter jeans. I have only had them for several days so they are not molded to my feet just yet, but they are good so far. Birkenstocks in general run wide so take that into consideration and with zappos.com you can always send them back and get a different size. I have bought half a dozen shoes here and it's great! These clogs are great they add some color to the original with a twist.

Very comfortable- plus nice floral design!
Love this shoe- very cute flowery design- it has a nice distinctive look over most plain clogs, and very, very comfortable-worth the price- I highly recommend!

First of all, I must commend the service at zappos.com! It is extraordinary! My shoes arrived at my doorstep in less than 48 hours! I had originally ordered these shoes (in metallic gold) in person at the Birkenstock store here in town, and frankly their customer service is horrible compared to Zappos. I was promised to receive my shoes in a week but they kept me running around, guessing, and waiting for a response to no avail. A week and a half after I had pre-ordered the shoes in store (while zappos.com already had them in stock; stupid me for not just ordering from Zappos first!) they told me that they were unable to locate a pair. As you can imagine, at this point I was very upset and demanded a refund. That same night I ordered the shoes from Zappos and they arrived almost immediately. I am so pleased with Zappos service. As for the shoes, the "Metallic Gold" color is absolutely perfect and is not too gold, but more of a brownish-bronzy tone with a metallic gold sheen in the light. Perfect! And the Boston’s, as usual, are the most comfortable shoe ever.

Birks -
I really enjoy the Bostons by Birkenstocks. They are very comfortable, and i no long have craps in my feet if i walk to much, because of the arced shoe. i love the look, the navy with stars is cute look. i where them everywhere. and i have also received many complements. I was surprised as to how comfortable they were, the way that they feel like they mold to your feet.

Step daughter's birthday gift-
They were a gift, and the recipient was thrilled! And wow super fast delivery, they arrived in less than 2 days! For future though they do fit wide and generous.

Always comfortable -
Bostons have to be the most comfortable style of Birkenstocks I own. My fourth pair. It makes wearing anything else a chore. I just dread the day when I may have to "dress up" and actually wear heels!

Classic -
This is a classic Birkenstock style in a fun new color. The support of this shoe is awesome. Birkenstock support has cured my plantar fasciitis condition. As always, great customer service from Zappos.

Gorgeous Deep Suede Colors!
My challenge is my wide feet! In addition, my left foot is altered by left leg surgery, so finding shoes that go on my two feet and look attractive is highly challenging --(primarily because my left leg & foot are prone to swelling.) The clogs slip on easily, but I have been challenged to KEEP them ON... they are VERY generous according to size -- and my foot is VERY wide.
Do as you wish about choosing a 1/2 size, or full size smaller. I am keeping mine even though they are a bit large, with the plan to wear them with socks and it is now too warm to do yet.
The Burgandy (Ruby?) and Amethyst are stunning, very dark, rich oolors! I've really struggled to find a fit and Zappos.com is WONDERFUL about shipping and returns!!!!!
What a wonderful service they provide~!
Thank you Zappos!

As always....A Great Clog -
This again is a very comfortable clog. This is my third Birk clog (10 Birk pairs of all sorts in all.) The color is not a ruby red; it's more like a lighter eggplant/wine color. I'm a true size US 8, but I wear a "Birk" size 37 regular cork bed or 38 with the Soft foot bed.
(These work perfectly with my new suede Wine COACH bag and wristlet.)

The shoes are very comfortable, appeared to be authentic Birkenstocks, and received them very fast in time for Christmas. But, why oh why didn't they come in an original Birkenstock box?? Did not like that at all.

The Birkenstock suede clogs were just as described and pictured. I got size 38 which fit perfectly. I generally wear a size 7.5 medium in shoes. They are comfortable and easy to walk in.

I recently purchased a Birkenstock sandal that fits me perfectly. These run small. I am ordering 1 size up and I hope that it fits better.

Not the typical comfort I am accustomed to with Birks. However, a very nice shoe!

I've worn Birks for 50 years. Soft footbeds don't hold up nearly as well as the regular footbeds. LL, please offer the other footbed!!!

I inadvertently left my Birkenstock Boston at home in Boston, you can't make that up.
These were purchased from the Outlet as such they had a slight discountnot a "Woo Hoo" this a tremendous bargainwhich was enough for me to suck it up. Hey, user error's have a cost.
1. If you tend to buy suede Bostons, these will feel rather stiff, if not somewhat restrictive.
2. The soft footbed makes these shoes rather narrow, which was a serious plus for me. That said, they will be snug if you have a wider feet as such, size up.

I'm rating this three stars because the color, quality was great but the right shoe was way off in construction and I had to return.

I returned because the size felt too small and I couldn't pull them off. Really wanted these to work but I think they'd look cute on the right person!

The right foot was made defective. My right foot is my smaller foot, but the toes rubbed in the right shoe. Looking inside the right foot bed was molded differently than the left shoe. Very cute and comfortable in the left shoe.

Very unhappy. Sides were curved in and keep cutting into my feet. Sure it has to do with packaging, but I hate returns. Never buying from this site again.

These shoes are beautiful, but came as narrow width. I waited a very long time to get them as they were back ordered. Kind of disappointed as I now read other reviews that pointed out the incorrect width being advertised yet LLBE does not make the correction.
