These are fantastic, however, I would take the time and use the size chart carefully. Measure your foot, takes 2 min. Even though returning things is super easy, to get it right the first time is better! Buy these shoes!

I bought these for my boyfriebd to replace a really old pair he had, and he was ecstatic!!! He loves Birkenstocks, as do I, because they are super comfortable and give great support!

These are wonderful, but I caved from the reviews and ordered narrow sizing. Even though these look like they would move a lot on your foot, they don't so order your regular size.

This is my first soft footbed. I really appreciate the extra comfort and wish Birkenstock made this an option in more styles.

Wonderful Shoe! It took a little bit longer to break in than the Suede Boston I got last year, but now it's great! I've gotten lots of compliments on it's looks.

I am so spoiled by Birkenstock. I just got these and I absolutely love them. The perfect closed-toe shoe with the most amazing support and so comfy! The only thing that really bothers me about Birkenstocks is the break-in period. I have these and the Granada sandals and some really ugly battle scars on my feet where blisters/cuts formed from the shoe. However(!!!), I would suffer through the break-in period 100 more times if I had to. Birkenstocks are some of the only sandals/flat shoes I can wear because of arthritis, joint issues, and pinched nerves in my ankles. I am a 7 1/2 usually and ordered the Bostons in a 38 which are kind of snug but I know they will stretch with wear. My Granadas are a 39 and also fit wonderfully. They are such great shoes and definitely worth the price. Do not hesitate to buy these, you won't regret it!

I used to wear Birkenstocks in the '90s, I loved them then and love them now! I wear a 7.5 womens shoe but need a wide toe box. I have enough room for tights or a thinner pair of sock for cool days The 38 is perfect. Comfortable enough to wear all day!

My husband is a birkenstock fan. He loves the soft bed sandals and really likes this clogs style. He did try the shoe type but the sole is too stiff to walk comfortably in them. He does wear a narrow/B width and is happy they come in narrower widths!

A sturdy comfortable sandal. Leather a bit stiff but becomes flexible with ear. A suede shoe would be be softer on the foot. Great for wearing around and the foot pad does mold to your foot. Highly recommended.

I have had these shoes for awhile, and they are my go-to shoes especially now since I have an ankle brace and can't wear virtually anything else. My only complaint is that the suede stretches out, and then, they easily would fall off; however, I was able to tighten them by adding another hole on the band.

These shoes are the most comfortable I've ever had. The only change I would make is a strap that can be positioned on top of the shoe or behind your foot.

I didn't want to brave "the ugly", but what a difference these shoes make. I'm on my feet for several hours a day and had developed planter fascia. Wearing my Birkenstocks has brought comfort to these poor aching feet and Zappos is the best! Such quick deliveries and with no hassle for returns, couldn't be better.

I love these shoes! They are comfortable, good looking, durable, and consistent. This purchase was my 3rd pair. I kept the 2nd pair for "around town" wear.

I recently ordered the Birkenstock Boston shoe for my granddaughters birthday. She was so pleased especially with the soft footbed. Also Zappos handles my order very fast and good. As a matter of fact, I had it the next day. Thanks so much Zappos, you really save me much time shopping on your web.

Great shoes. They are so comfy and beautiful in real life. Excellent service from Zappos, as usual. I was scared of them being too wide but they fit just right.

I found this shoe to have great support and comfort. The leather is very soft and there was no break in period at all; however, I did have to tighten the buckle to create a better fit due to the soft leather. I ordered a narrow width and found it to be perfect for narrow to medium width. The sizing was true to size. I've always worn a 37 in Birkenstocks (size 7) and have found it to be a perfect fit. Zappos service was great as always.

Ordered a size 6 because that's my usually size. When I got them they were much too big, I was annoyed because I had to exchange and then wait forever. However spoke with a representative online and they shipped out my new size that day and they came within 2 days! Great service! Love my bikenstocks, they are like slippers they're so comfortable! I wear them all the time in this 90 degree heat, no socks of course!

People are right. These are amazing! I feel like they have taught me how to walk properly again, and I cannot help wearing them around the house too. I have not had a chance to really properly wear them out much, as it has been so hot. They are incredibly comfortable though, and I also really like how they look. I like the simplicity. My only complaint about the style is that they are a bit chunky around the toes, and I do not like how that looks.

These are really great shoes. They are super comfortable and I love the way they look. I ordered them in Narrow because they run on the wider side, and they fit great. I placed my order in the evening, Zappos bumped up my shipping priority status, and they were at my door by the next afternoon. I couldn’t be happier with the product or the website service!

for those who have a narrow foot, it is often hard to find a shoe that will fit. this birkenstock solves the problem. the shoebed cradles the foot and allows weight to transfer evenly for total support while walking. the straps allow for a custom fit. birkenstocks rock!

These are exactly what I ordered. I'm happy that is was available in a narrow size, that most stores do not offer. I received a prompt delivery and am very happy!

These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. I was a little worried about fit because of my wide feet but they fit perfectly. I will definitely be buying another pair from Zappos.
