Customer Reviews Birkenstock Arizona Soft Footbed - Oiled Leather (Unisex)

I am a Birkenstock fan but never bought the soft bed. These are comfortable and soft but I miss the sturdy sole feeling that I get from regular Birkenstocks. These shoes miss the arch under the toes also. Over all, they are comfortable.. one does not have to break in.

Got these puppies primarily for walking around the house. I have plantar fasciitis and I made the mistake of walking around the house in flip flops for months. Bad idea. These are fantastic for walking around the house in, very supportive shoes.

This sandal is fantastic. I have had foot problems for a long time now, and these shoes work wonders. It is like I'm wearing orthotics, but in a sandal. They have plenty of arch support, they mold to your foot, and the sizing and width were right on.

OMG! Total comfort - These are second pair of Arizona soft beds I've bought. I wasn't too thrilled with the first pair because they fit weird, and looked huge on my feet. Don't get me wrong, they were comfy though. I decided to try again with a smaller size. I am a size five, so this time I went with a size 35 which is a size 4-4.5. It was amazing! They look so much better on me, and fit perfectly. There was no break in period at all! Also, I originally got the light beige ones and they looked run down almost immediately. This time I went with the mocha and it looks newer. They are comfort shoes first and unfortunately I can't give them 5 stars for looks, let's face it they are not cute in general. As for other styles, It's a shame that Birkenstock doesn't make a real/better looking closed shoe. I would buy them yesterday. As always, Zappos rocks!

I'm in heaven... I, too, couldn't wear my old pairs- I'm 60 now w/bunions and sensitive feet. I decided to give these a try- WOW! These are soooo comfortable- I'm buying at least another pair. I originally got regular width (cause of bunions) but they were too wide. Even w/my spreading feet, narrow is perfect. I'm on a tight budget but this is the best $$ I've spent this year.

Perfect - My last pair purchased was a size 43 but after wearing them for 8 months the sole stretched out in length and width. So I opted for a size 42 this time, which are a perfect fit. Very comfortable. The soft bed is the way to go.

Awesome - I can't take these shoes off, they do take some time to wear in but once they do they become part of you. People have started to think I'm weird when I go indoors and complain about taking my shoes off. Like everyone says they really do last forever. I've had mine since I was in high school eight years ago and I just got them resoled last month so they're still going strong!

AHHHHHH - The floors in my new house were causing my arthritic knees to scream in pain. The soft footbeds add the cushioning I need. What a relief!

Good product and everything is fine. I just wanted to comment on your employees, they are outstanding, helpful, kind and considerate and go out of their way to be of assistance. You set the pace for customer satisfaction! Even when you didn't have what we were looking for, your employee took time to try and locate the product for us elsewhere. This is very rare and will bring us back to your site.

WOW!! I don’t wanna take these off! Awesome sandal. Ordering another pair for my wife right now.

Pleased buyer - This Birkenstock soft- sole sandal is super comfy. Also I got a narrow size--better fit (generally not available in typical retail setting). Knee pain reduced wearing the soft foot bed.

Simply the best for summer - I absolutely love Birkenstocks. They are comfortable beyond belief. I wear these things so much! I even bought a pair for my 7 year old son and he loves them. You can't get them wet though, so be careful in rainy weather. I walk all over NYC with these and my feet don't hurt.

More comfortable than ever... Well, first you need to know that I've been wearing this shoe style for about 30 years, so I must be happy with it. The new softer foot bed is incredibly luxurious. I love these new shoes. One issue --not a new one for me: Because I, like many, have one foot a bit longer than the other, my size 39 fits well overall, but my toes hit the trademark Birki edge on the left shoe.

Soft Footbed Birks - Felt a little different, not as angular as regular Birks, so were very comfortable right out of the box. Usually Birks take a few wearings to feel right. Only drawback is they do not seem to offer quite as much arch and ridge support.
