Customer Reviews Birkenstock Boston Soft Footbed - Suede (Unisex)

Love this style, but I definitely need the narrow. The regular was too wide for my skinny feet. Ordered the narrow ones in black!

The convolutions in the (not so very) soft foot bed do not match my foot. The arch support was in a different place than my arch. Nice soft suede upper.

Ran big and had to exchange for smaller size

I have another pair of Boston in 39, so I got that size, but these were so much bigger. I compared it to my current shoe, this one was an inch longer! I just exchanged back for a 38, and hope that it fits better.

Somewhat disappointed in the suede top of Birkenstock clog, it was defective on the top of one shoe, and it was worn off on both on the outer edge. Made me think that they where returned after being worn a bit. These are just a house shoe but I contacted Zappos and asked for some kind of credit being that the support of the shoe was fine. They actually sent me a free replacement. Wow I think that's incredible , so now I can donate one and still have the support I need!! So awesome.

These are gorgeous. Unfortunately, I they run large for me. I take a 37 EU (6.5) narrow in my Birkenstock Floridas (which fit perfectly). I got these the same size in these and they are remarkably large for that size. Really disappointed.

Even though they were supposed to be narrow, they were too wide for my AA feet.

I wanted a “winter” shoe from Birkenstock that did not have fleece or lambswool (my feet get too hot). I need slip-ons for my business. I wanted these to work but they were too stiff. Plus I love the two sandals I have from Birkenstock, but in these, I felt like a clown with big feet:)

I returned the size 41 Bostons as they run small on me in exchange for size 42. I found there is a size difference between the two styles, needing more room for my toes. I wish I read a similar review to determine that I needed to size up from Arizonas to the Bostons.

My husband has never experienced the heaven I call Birks...LOL And so far, not so good. Hates gripping his toes and cant keep them on otherwise. Ordered the fuzzy ones to see if that matters and a pair of sandals to see if any difference. His feet hurt andI really think these will help. The Soft bed makes all the diff for sure.

soft footbed. the most ridiculous birkenstocks. they are nothing like the original. they have zero support. why wear them if the reason to even wear these is for foot health? soft footbed is taking over and it's a total bummer as i can't even get a proper pair of shoes now. i am so disappointed in the birkenstock company. they are sell outs and their products are terrible now. birko flor? soft footbed? ugh. no thanks. keep them all. horrible. ruined a great comapny.

I really wanted these Boston Soft Footbed Birkenstocks to work for me. At first I thought, though they were loose, I could make them work. But I can't. They're narrow and I wear a Medium width, but based on reviews I ordered the Narrow. They're just a little long and a little wide. I wear a 6.5M and I ordered the 37 Narrow. I can tell a slight bit of difference in the Soft Footbed, but it's not dramatically soft. Bottom line for $145 the shoe has to fit better than this one does. I am returning it.

The sizing of Birkenstock has really caused me to back off the brand. The narrow is to narrow and the new med/wide is to wide. I have worn Birks for years but the new widths don’t fit me like my old Birks.

Yikes, these are HUGE!! I even ordered a full size down & they were waaay too long/wide. And, not the Birkies I remember from about 15 years ago when I last wore them. These are so stiff & hard, even this "softbed" style. Feels like walking on a piece of wood. But, gotta say, the whole footbed shape felt good under the heel/arch/toes. My old Bs were flexible when new, which is why I could wear them. Not anymore I guess.

Too floppy so I can't slip them on without bending down

I have a pair of the Boston clog from a decade ago. It was time to buy a new pair. They changed the footbead so now it's a "comfort" foot bed, which was in fact, comfortable. I cannot attest to how the cork bottom will feel after break-in because they are going back. I normally wear a women's 7 1/2 shoe & ordered a 37 (a size smaller) 10 years ago, which fit perfectly. These however, must be more true to size as the 37 is too short. Also, the suede is funky on both tops of the shoes, shiney and matted down. Im looking for a cork footbed clog & have tried Haflinger & Stegman's but both are too big surrounding the top of my foot.

Fit and Size were great. Button to secure strap broke off after 5 minutes of wearing.

I had a pair of Boston’s for many years and loved them, even having them retreaded several times. Then my foot changed and I couldn’t handle the hard sole. I thought the softer surface in these would make it possible to wear them again. Not so. I miss my birkie days.

While the description shows a size range 10-10.5, the actual box when received shows 10. I'm a true 10.5 and the 41 (Eur) was too small. Did not fit with or without socks. Same with my husband's pair. Will need to return for a larger size. The width was good and the style cute.

The size of these are way off. I ordered a 39, knowing that was my size because I have a pair of Gizehs but these are a whole size off. When I hold them up sole to sole with the Sandels there’s nearly an inch difference. I threw away my box before wearing these because I was certain of my sizing so now I can’t return. But I plan on contacting Birks to see what the deal is.

Didn’t help my plantar fasciitis, I had high hopes. It’s only been a week maybe they need a break in period. But after being on my feet for 10 hours as a nurse, my feet were in so much pain.

I really wanted to love these. I kept trying to... but the soft footbed isn't as comfortable for me as the original. I don't know what it is, maybe the support is lacking from what I am used to. I'm very sad to return them.

I wanted to like these. I tried them in the house a few separate times, but ultimately, these had to be returned. Too stiff for me, the bottom kept slipping on wood surface, and width was uncomfortable near my big toes.

The style is exactly what i thought, unfortunately after tightening the buckle, the tightness still felt more loose than i wanted.

Too shiny leather
