First time I have tried the 'soft' foot bed. They are much more comfortable than the regular foot bed. As for style, I love them! I wear them mostly around the house or for running quick errands.

Love these. This was my first time trying a Birk with the Soft foot bed. Bought these to wear as slippers. Still great support, just not as pronounced arch pushing into my foot. Ordered both the Narrow and the Regular. I don't typically wear a wide, but was concerned the Narrow might hurt my bunion. The Regular width was definitely too wide. Narrow fit great and is comfortable.

Perfect size and fit both with and without socks. Can’t go wrong with these comfy and supportive clogs, my fourth pair over the years, especially in shoulder seasons when weather is not condusive to wearing open sandals, and always perfect for slogging around the house. Love ‘em!

I have narrow feet so I purchase the narrow and it was perfect! I still have room for socks during the winter. Love it!

I wanted to love these. I have a wide foot and they only come in narrow. The fit wouldn’t have been an issue, but when I walked the suede part on the side kept getting tucked inside. I wasn’t totally in love with the color, either. I have 6 pairs of birks, but wanted a winterish pair to keep my feet warm. Sadly I had to return.

Love these. They're comfortable and supportive. The suede hasn't held up the best, but they're comfy and I love. Can't beat Birks. I float between a 38 and 39, many sandals I wear a 38, these I had to do 39.

I wear 39 regular in Arizona Birks but had to size UP to 40 for the Bostons. Also my feet swell and they are a little tight when that happens...would love them more in a regular or wide width.

Found the footbed of these to be pretty comfortable--love the soft version. However, the Brown Amalfi Leather was the only one in stock in my size and it was ugly as well as stiff and uncomfortable. I think I would like it much better in one of the less stiff, softer versions.

I bought a pair of these Birkenstock clogs because of the excellent reviews, great sale price, and because I was looking for something comfortable to wear around the house. I usually wear a 9 to 9.5 in regular shoes and sandals, so I ordered a size 40 Narrow. The left clog fit my foot perfectly, but the right clog was a bit too small as my index toe kept hitting the edge of the footbed. The "narrow" width felt good given that my feet are a bit on the narrow side. Perhaps a size 41 would work better for the somewhat pointy shape of my feet, but that size wasn't available at a price I was willing to pay. Many thanks to Zappos for taking my return. Maybe I'll try Birkenstocks again the next time I see a good sale.

I opened the bos to find shoes trashed....arrived with no stuffing in shoes or protection, the suede is damaged, curled, and misshapen, I could not even try on the shoes as the edges are turned inside out. The Soles of the shoes appear new, I wonder if they were stored incorrectly in a warehouse and then shipped without proper packing. I have several pairs of Birkenstock, and have never had this problem before. Initially I called Zappos and they arranged for an exchange, however I am very disappointed so I ultimately cancelled exchange for a refund. This is very sad as I really wanted to have the Boston for inside shoes, but I will now have to come up with something else!

Love the soft bed birks. They conform to your feet and are so comfortable. I am a runner and have feet issues. These shoes are a delight to own. They are my 5th pair and got a new color.

Fits like a glove, very comfortable because of the softbed...no break in period. The leather will stretch some.

I am on my feet a lot. These Boston Soft Footbed clogs are the perfect shoe for me to run my errands, take care of household chores, and keep my feet comfortable and supported in the process. Excellent shoe to protect one's feet while on the go.

The Boston clog fits like the Arizona. I get the regular width and they're relatively roomy. Some styles, like the Gizeh, seem to be a little more narrow. If you like that fit, these may seem wide. The soft footbed is super comfortable. It is soft, but without feeling too plush or unsupportive. I'd read that you might need to size up in a closed style like this, but the bigger size was far too big. My usual 41 regular width fit perfectly. The taupe colour is a really nice neutral shade that goes with everything. It's especially cute with jeans.

I wear a womans 6.5 - 7 depending on the style of the shoe. I ordered a 37 narrow & a 38 narrow to compare size difference. The 37 fit exactly perfectly barefoot. With socks the 37's were slightly too small in my opinion length wise. So I kept the 38's. I was more comfortable with the length. Very comfortable shoe. I took them on vacation & did a lot of walking in them. They were comfortable all day.

I wear a 39 in the Mayari sandal, but needed to go down a size to 38 for this shoe.
