They are unbelievably comfortable but a little wide looking.

I was very disappointed as it appears that the shoes were used. The sides of both shoes are scuffed as are the toes on both of the shoes. All original tags and box were left as they were delivered. I have been successful with ordering before, but this time I was very dissatisfied. Please advise as to how I should return and I definitely am requesting a full refund.

This is my first pair of 'closed toe' Birkenstocks. I usually buy the flip-flop or double strap version. I wear a 6W or 6WW in almost all shoes and so the 'open' versions of Birkenstocks work well for me. The suede on these will stretch a little. I've been wearing them (with socks) around the house in an attempt to get the suede top to stretch. The footbed works great - just like the flip flop versions - but the top is a little tight. Not sure if going up a size would have helped but note that if you have a wide (or chubby) foot these are a little tight.

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.

These were both marked 40 but the right show was at least a half size smaller. And both shoes had all sorts of rough spots inside in the end of the footbed - like dried glue. Birkenstock quality is going downhill for sure

For a 17 year old- these are Tik Tok Hot this year- whatever that means and llbean had the hottest color - we did find as far as burks these seemed ro run a size small but that might be due the width as it is the narrower version

Birkenstock never disappoints. I had forgotten how wonderful they feel, with or without socks. I traveled with them recently and they were like being comfortable in your own space.

Fit true to size. Extremely comfortable. No break-in period required. Can walk long distances without change in comfort.

The size felt smaller than listed, it was too short even though it’s the size I usually order

They sent the wrong color. I ordered the taupe one and they sent some kind of grayish blue. Not the best service

Very comfortable clogs. No breakin period! I had to order a size up as the Boston ran smaller than my Arizona sandals. The soft footbed is the way to go!

I had to return these because the size 41 is a little bit too big but I'm sad because you don't carry a size 40. I purchased these with bean bucks. I don't think I can afford them otherwise. I'm so sad. These are gorgeous! Please carry a size 40 in the future. I'm a woman with a 2E extra wide foot so I wear men's shoes. These are unisex though and will look gorgeous on anyone.

Wearing them more than I expected. Comfy, cute, goes with most. Prefer with sox. If you do, buy accordingly.
