These run a little big. I ordered a size smaller than my normal shoe size and they were perfect

The soft footbed is so much better than the regular footbed. My first pair of Arizona’s are taupe suede so this time I got habana brown oiled leather and love it! As expected the leather is thick and slightly stiff when you get them but they get more comfortable each day as the leather softens and you break them in. For size reference I wear a 10 1/2 wide (D) in women’s athletic sneakers. The 41 regular (10-10 1/2 US) fits great. There’s enough room so my toes don’t constantly touch the ridge of the toe box and my heels aren’t on the edge of the sandal.

Wildly comfortable and just the look I wanted! I am a stay at home mother of two under 3, I wanted something comfortable, easy and cute! Although i wear a lot of black & gray, I was very attracted to the brown alamalfi brown, with the rose colored buckles. GORGE! After years of yoga, bar tending, wearing 4 inch heels+, and running (yes I've been very hard on my feet), I now have bunions, these are like HEAVEN! Like walking on clouds and the sides don't put any pressure on my feet. I love them so much, I am buying them for my sister-in-law. She doesn't have the orthopedic issue that I do, but she is a physician and spends a lot of time on her feet too. I did have some trouble with my sizing but Zappos, your customer service is top notch! I ordered the wrong width and I was sent out the correct size immediately, with no charge, and emailed a return label for the first pair. Thank you so much, Zappos and Birkinstock, I am very very happy! :)

Zappos is the best! My husband loves his Birkenstocks...his first pair ever. He compared the regular footbed to the soft footbad and chose the soft. The leather is beautiful, the quality is second to none.

I love the fast and helpful service from Zappos! If something doesn't work out for me, it is easy and convenient to return a purchase. My new Birkenstock sandals are wonderful, a good look for casual and snappy casual wear. This style is a very comfortable all day shoe.

Purchased these as a gift for my husband. We ordered the narrow width and they fit him better than any other pair of Birkenstocks he has owned. The soft footbed is noticably more comfortable to him as well.

These sandals were recommended by my podiatrist to alleviate for discomfort. The sandals are great, and Zappos' service is the best!

Love these! I got these after first having bought the Birkis that are similar and loved them for several years. I wanted another great shoe and tried these out. The soft footbed is really nice and comfortable. I am noticing that they are wearing better than the other pair too. I will have these for years! Definitely easier on your foot than flip flops too!

My husband loved these shoes. The suede is very soft and easy to wear without that break-in period. The only issue was that we had to add another hole in the front strap to tighten the fit.

Well, now that summer is almost over - I've found the perfect sandal. These shoes are wonderfully comfortable, though they do take a few wearings to break them in. I'm on my feet all day & have had such a hard time finding shoes that don't make my feet/ankles hurt. Birkenstocks may not be all soft and cushy, but someone once told me - they might not be the shoes your feet want, but they're the shoes your feet need.

This is my first pair of Birkenstock sandals and it will not be my last! Another shoe that fits over my high instep! I have always had problems with straps over the top of my foot, not with these. In fact I had to tighten them! They are so comfortable. I wish I had had these a few weeks ago when the temperatures in our area were unbearably hot! I thought they were pricey but a friend has had hers for years so I feel I will be getting my money's worth.

I have worn Birk Arizona's for years and have loved every minute of them! During the past couple of years I've developed multiple foot problems (arthritis, plantar fasciitis, etc.) and these Birks with soft footbed are like heaven to my feet! I still have foot pain but not as bad as with other shoes. Still love the color and the style and now have a softer footbed to add to the reason I like Arizona's.

Birkenstocks are comfy shows, that's for sure. The soft footbed does have a softer feel, what those in the carpet industry call a soft hand, but they still offer the same solid support and firmness that Birkies always have.

This pair of shoes has improved greatly in cushion support over the ones I bought 4 years ago and replaced with these new ones. A top quality product. Will continue to buy in the future as these wear out. This model shoe i wear more than any other ones I have. I have a dozen pair of shoes.

I love these shoes! I had so much trouble with my feet that I could hardly walk. I have flat feet, a very large bunion and heel spurs and had been wearing nothing but running shoes for about 6 years. I am 69 years old. I have been wearing these for about two years now and most of my pain has gone away! I have never had a more comfortable shoe. Thank you Birkenstock.

I am diabetic and have neuropathy in my feet. I have always worn Birkenstocks, but last year the cork footbed began to hurt my feet, so I had to give them up. When I saw these soft footbed Birks, I decided to try them. I am so glad that I did. They are wonderful. They fit just like the regular ones, but do not cause me any foot pain at all. I love them.

Great sandals and service - I was absolutely amazed at the speed in which I received the sandals! It was less than 24 Hours- and they fit perfectly!! I will be wearing these comfortable and arch supportive sandals for a long time.

Love Birkies - I read the special note on the Zappos website that said Birkenstock narrow is an American average size in width. This was new information to me and I decided to go ahead and order a narrow. The sandals fit perfectly! I also always go down one full size too. I usually wear an 8 but in Birkenstocks I wear a 7. I just love them.
