Customer Reviews Birkenstock Boston Soft Footbed - Suede (Unisex)

The fit is perfect, so comfortable with good arch support. I had the sandals many years ago after some toe surgery. Doctors recommended them..

True to size. I don’t normally wear narrow but got these in narrow because they look better. I was worried when I first put them on because they weren’t super comfy. Mostly the footbed wasn’t comfortable. After wearing a few hours they are very comfortable!

The fit and size were great as expected. The suede is soft. Needs no breaking in. They are stylish with casual outfits

The shoes were great, however the unisex sizing doesn't work when you have a women's foot. Narrow is too small, regular fits, but it is too tall in the height, my foot flops around in it. Looks like Birkenstock sandals is the only way to go, not closed toe shoes.

Love these shoes. They are so comfortable. I wear either my black pair or my tan pair nearly every day. They are cute with any type of clothing, jeans, pants, skirts, shorts, etc…

These shoes arrived with a broken strap and they appeared to have been used. They also arrived in an Amazon bag with no shoe box. Very weird - we returned them.

Fit was as expected. The leather is so nice, as his the color.

I wouldn’t know how they fit because I was sent a used dirty pair of Birkenstock. $170 and Zappos sends me a pair with oil spots on the suede and food in the treads. I contacted customer support and the only thing they offered was for me to return and wait up to 14 days for a refund and I would have to reorder a new pair. I will send these back but no way will I reorder. I have been a faithful customer for many years. Do better Zappos.

Love this shoe! It fits true to size and is extremely comfortable. There is a short break in period before they’re really comfy. I totally recommend this type of Birkenstock, so cute!

Fit like a glove and no time needed to break in for comfort. Purchased narrow width because I have narrow feet. Great quality.

These were for my son for his birthday. He wore them to school and the tab/button on the inside of the left shoe fell off on the first wear. I expect better quality from Birkenstock and $160 pair of shoes! I don't know how to return these since I recycled the boxes already. I also cannot get the photos of the shoe to upload so I don't know what to do.

My normal size was wayyy too big, had to size down. But these fit perfectly! I am normally a 6, and sized down to 5-5.5.

This is not the regular suede shoe. I have no idea what this furry mess is. The shoe on right is what I received. The shoe on the left is what it’s supposed to look like.

Love them but the regulars are very wide, I can't wear them at all without thick socks.

Okay, I’m leaving a mediocre review for these because the last two pair I’ve owned haven’t lasted a full year. I’ve been wearing these for at least 25 years. The first pairs I owned seemed to last and last forever. Even the last pair I owned before the last two lasted for more than three years. I’m not sure what has happened but the quality has gone down considerably. Also, I’ve always purchased the same size, but the last two pair have been too large. I had to add holes to the belt loop to tighten up the sander. The last pair I purchased, I had to add the holes on the day the pair arrived. I do t like to hassle with returns so I just made them work, but it’s been about ten months now and they are well worn out. Please do better Birkenstock. These are not inexpensive shoes. I can’t afford to replace them every single year.

I have lots of Birkenstocks - mostly Arizonas - and I only recently decided I liked the Boston because they seemed to look better than I thought they would on models in ads and review pics. They fit well - I got a US Womens 9 regular because my feet are very wide. 9 is my typical size in most shoe brands. I wear socks with these and although I probably don’t need them, I do think they will be a classic, long wearing shoe style that will last for years. I got the neutral beige color.

Zappos offers regular so I was able to buy my usual size in Birkenstocks and they fit perfect. I’ve tried the narrow in store and had to size up for toe room which still wasn’t great. I’d recommend the regular over the narrow in the Boston’s for a similar fit to your other Birks.

After years of trying to wear Birkenstocks, I’m finally giving up. I’ve done all of the break-in things, waited for weeks, and they still kill my feet. I think my toes are the wrong length for these shoes. If the toe bar hits in the right place, the heel does not. I really wanted to love these shoes, but I don’t want to be in pain all day.

The only thing I didn't like about this shoe is that it isn't really a slip-on as I would like because the tongue area of the shoe collapses (suede) so that you must fiddle with the shoe to put it on.

Faulty shoes - the rivet attaching the strap kept popping off & made the shoes unwearable
