Customer Reviews Birkenstock Boston Soft Footbed - Suede (Unisex)

I would size down 1 whole size.

I normally wear a 7 or 7.5 U.S. men's shoe size and I ordered the corresponding Birkenstock size of 40. The fit and size are perfect without socks or with thin socks. The upper is soft and the footbed is comfortable with a good amount of arch support. This is my first pair of Birkenstocks and I'm enjoying them so far!

I have resisted buying Birkenstock Boston’s because they look a little dumpy, but decided the comfort outweighed the look. I tried them in three sizes, 38 and 39 Regular and 40 Narrows. I bought a pair of Arizona’s in 39 N and tried that as well in the Boston but that was way too small. The 38 regular was too short and the 40 Narrows pinched with thick socks so I ended with my original 39 size. They’re a little wide but they feel divine on my mostly sore and tired feet. And I actually think they’re sort of cute. My husband thinks they’re hideous but loves that I’m happy.

Run a bit big. I’m a 7.5 and fit a 37. Run wide, but I prefer that very comfortable and great arch support. I’m obsessed. Love all clogs.

Perfect!

Remember to size down with Birkenstock. They run big! Sandals and clogs.

Very comfortable!!

These are my favorite shoes, even if they are not shoes, my biggest issue with them is that they are too comfortable (once broken in) to take off. That being said, give them a week of solid break in to get to that level of comfort by wearing them around the house or yard. The stiffness on the footbed will gradually give way to form to your feet.

Great fit. Typical Birkenstock comfort.

Beautiful shoes. I did send them back though. Not because of quality or service, they were excellent. The shoes were much darker brown than they looked in the pictures. They were so close to my black birks that I couldn’t justify having 2 exact pairs almost identical in color. I’ll order a lighter brown to suede maybe.

Very comfortable. No break in time whatsoever!

I normally wear a 37 in the Arizona style, so that’s what I originally ordered. Because of the closed toe, they were a tad short; my toes hit the end. Returned and re-ordered in a 38 and they are perfect.

The Bostons in Narrow were a better fit for me. They are also super comfortable right out of the box!

It's very good~ Thanks :)

This shoe feels like I’m walking on a cloud! Absolutely love Boston softbed!!

It's been a while since I have had a pair of Birks. I am glad I opted for the narrow width based on other reviews. I am either a size 6.5 or 7 and the size 37 are a perfect fit. The footbed is very comfortable. I have worn them around the house to break them in, but I don't think I even need to break them in.

I wear a women’s size 8 and the unisex size 39 narrow fit perfectly

feels like a durable material and looks of great quality.

Just what I was looking for - the familiar comfort of Birks. Love the navy suede, too.

I love wearing them. Thank you for recommending the narrow fit.

Pretty much exceeded all my expectations!

Perfect right out of the box and narrow enough for my feet. Plenty of support for my plantar fasciitis. Not high fashion but serious comfort!

Went back to my first floor nursing shoe. Now it all makes sense. Extra comfort of soft footbed. Wish they made navy in this style that wasn’t suede.

This shoe in regular width is a good fit for my wide feet. Zappos customer service is the best !

Everyone says they’re true to fit however I found they were bigger than my true size in most other shoes. I usually wear an 11(US) and ordered the 44, I had almost a 1/4” space in the heal cup.
