Customer Reviews Birkenstock Boston Soft Footbed - Suede (Unisex)

These shoes are great! They’re super comfy and have excellent arch support. The only caveat is I ordered my normal Birkenstock size 38 (I have two pairs of their sandals) with regular width and my toes felt a little smooshed in the toe box. I read other reviews that the leather stretches with wear so I decided to keep them instead of exchange.

Perfect fit! The best fall/winter cooler weather comfortable non-shoe, shoe. Love them!

Love the shoe! I have one foot a full size larger than the other... these still worked beautifully

These shoes never change, and that's a good thing. They are awesome. I wear them as house shoes. They are comfortable and supportive; great for walking on hard tile and wood floors. I originally bought these when I had plantar fascitis. Not only did they help my foot heal, the condition never returned. Correlation is not causation, but I attribute these shoes, which I wear daily, to foot health. The toe box is comfortable for my wide foot; there's enough room to wear socks when needed. The width over the insole is easily adjustable with the buckle. These are great shoes.

6 Regular shoes fit me well with adjustment of the buckle. Expect these to last for a long time and comfortable with suede lining and top - keepers!

The narrow fit still worked well with socks.

Ordered the same size I wear in Birkenstock sandals, but because of the closed toe, too short. I will be returning the shoes and ordering the next size up. Will wait till I order/receive the new size before reviewing, but am quite certain they will be a “go”.

Birkenstock’s are the best - hands down. As a RN nothing beats the comfort in 12-16 hr shifts! Zappos is also the VERY BEST place to get them. Never a problem, and even during the covid19 pandemic delivered in a couple days!! Never shop anywhere else!!

I’ve been wearing Birkenstocks for 40 years, but haven’t had a pair of Boston in a long time. My feet are more sensitive now due to arthritis and fibromyalgia, so the soft footbed and regular width is perfect. The leather upper is sturdy and will take a few wearings to break in, but I also know these will last me a very long time.

I listened to reviewers, so my size 10 feet downsized to a 40. They are too short, some I'm going back with my size 41. Otherwise, great ugly shoes!

I used to wear Birkenstocks years ago but when I developed Morton’s Neuroma, I had to stop because the toe bar hit in the absolute worse spot and caused intense pain. Fast forward 12 years and after wearing Haflinger clogs problem free, I decided to give the Boston Soft Footbed a chance, hoping the Soft Footbed padding would cushion that toe bar issue...and it did! I feel like I’ve been reintroduced to a very dear old friend, and I couldn’t be any happier. I wear 9.5 Medium in all my shoes and the 40 fits me perfectly. Since getting this Boston in Black Amalfi Leather, I’ve been wearing them nonstop. There will be additional Soft Footbed Birkenstocks in my future. Thanks Zappos for the fast shipping and delivery!

i’m a size 8.5 and i a size 39. they fit perfectly and they are so cute!!!!! i love them so much! awesome color and super comfy 10/10 would recommend

Our home has all hard floors, so these are my cold-weather home & walk-the-dog shoes. Otherwise I’ve got tired feet. I’ve been wearing my Birkie sandals all summer, and realized sock weather is coming soon so I ordered these a month or so in advance of needing them. I know they will be great, like my sandals. Definitely get the narrow unless you have wide feet or plan on wearing thiiick socks. Also, my first pair arrived with wild scratch marks on one of the uppers. Super shout out to Zappos for getting the replacements out to me right away, even before I returned the damaged pair.

broken needed to be protected and theses are perfect now and later

I wear a size 40 in most shoes, but in Birks I am a 39. For reference, I am on the smaller end of a US 9. These are exactly what I needed and so comfortable for my high arch. I will say that the suede seems a bit different than my other Birks (less soft and darker?) but hopefully they will wear well.

Fit perfectly! The buckle definitely helps secure the perfect fit.

There is not enough character space to talk about these sandals. These are my second pair that was purchased from Zappos. In like manner, you will not be disappointed. It's like the sandals whisper sweet nothings to my toes. :)

This was a gift for my son and he loved them. Beautiful sand color and great fir. Zappos arrived on time and great customer service!

I always wear a size 6.5 M in any shoe. I bought the Birkenstock Boston in a 37 N and the fit was perfect.

This is definitely my go to shoe in the winter. I bought this pair last winter and don’t think I ever wrote a review. (Birkenstocks are also my go to in the summer but in the winter I need a closed-toe shoe.) I get compliments on them although I do not think they are the hippest shoe. Still, Birkenstocks seem to make my feet the happiest. My issue is a growing bunion on my right foot. My only complaint, if you want to call it that, is that they really are the not warmest shoes (even with warm socks). I may go ahead and order the fur-lined (shearling?) pair. Birkenstock makes a quality shoe, well worth the money.

i lie in these shoes. Wear them around the house all the time. I have a high arch and metatarsalgia and these are perfect for those issues.

Love these. Very cute. The suede ones are more comfortable than the oiled leather ones.

I love these shoes so much! I have a large bunion, high arches and I am on my feet for 8 hours a day. My feet don’t hurt at the end of that day and I never knew this feeling existed!!! I personally think these are so ugly, but my coworkers compliment these shoes and I feel like they’re lying haha. Regardless, I highly recommend these shoes. I felt that these shoes are true to size and the sizing exactly matches the sandals.

I have plantar fasciitis on my left foot and theses are the only comfortable shoes I can wear. The longer you wear them the more they mold to your foot. Love!

They fit true to size. I love the soft footbed. It does not affect the arch support which is still great. Very comfortable. Fast shipping and received quickly!
