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

Comfortable shoe that will last for years, and goes with everything,

These are my first Birks and I'm so happy with them! I'm usually between a 7.5-8 and I chose the 38 narrow, they are just barely long enough and the width is perfect (I have average width feet). I wore them for the first time on an hour long walk today and only got one small blister, so I'm super impressed (I usually blister easily, especially with new shoes). The Alfani leather is super soft and comfortable.

These shoes are great! I usually always wear a size 8, so I went into a store to ensure I would order the correct size, which came out to 38 in Birkenstocks. I also have a wide foot, so I ordered the normal width. They were stiff at first, but after reading online I wore them about 30 minutes to an hour for the first few days, and within 5 days they were broken in and felt so comfortable! I can't get on board with calling these sandals "stylish" however when my friend told me she wore them for 90 miles walking all over Europe, I was sold. Zappos shipped so quickly too! Extremely satisfied with my purchase!

I love my Birks!!! They fit great and are comfortable to wear everywhere. I do normally wear a size 8 but got these in a 7-7.5 so I would suggest a size down when buying!

My husband is still breaking these in but so far he really likes them the soft foot bed is great for long walks and these are very stylish and go with everything he has

I normally wear an 11, the 12-12.5 sandal is what fit me. The softbed is excellent. It’s very comfortable.

I hadn’t worn Birkenstocks for years and am so glad I decided to give them another try. I ended up purchasing two pair of the Arizona’s with the soft sole, it’s a way better design in my opinion. Not to soft but for sure not as hard as the original. I’ve always had to get a half size smaller in Birkenstocks. I tried using the Birkenstock foot sizing chart and it is WAY off. I measured size 46 and wound up exchanging for a size 43 that fit perfectly.

My very first pair of Birkenstocks and now I know what everyone raves about! They are so comfortable! They fit comfortably around my foot. The color is a bit darker that the picture, was hoping for a bit lighter grey. But still happy with them!

I just got these shoes and I like them. I’m still breaking them in, so I have blisters on the sides of my feet. I don’t know if once I wear them more I’ll stop getting blisters but that’s usually the case. Other than that, they’re really cute!

The soft foot bed is a lot more comfortable initially than the traditional one. It still takes time to break in. My arches were in pain the first day but after a few wears they felt great! The Alfani leather is so pretty!

LOVE these. They are super cute, leather is very soft, and the soft footbed is wonderful!

I love my Arizona sanadals! They do rub big and kind of wide. I generally wear a size 8 in other sandals but order the 7-7.5 in the Arizona.

I purchased these as a gift after I had just purchased my birko-flor Birks. After I tried these on I really wish I had purchased the soft bed instead, it makes a HUGE difference. Definitely would recommend splurging the extra $30-40 to invest in the soft bed Birkenstocks!

Love these; ordered my usual normal size, 38, and they fit perfectly. I've sized down previously in Birkenstocks but decided that actually fit the best and most comfortably when I go with my normal size. Super comfortable and cute-looking, too!

Love these shoes. They are super comfortable and the color is so pretty and versatile that it will go with anything!

My 1st pair. You won’t believe how comfortable this sandal is with its “soft footbed”. Very comfortable and stylish for when you need classier look than the hiking / biking “Ecco” sandals which I also love.

My husband finally agreed to give Birks a try! He loves them, says they’re super comfortable and provide excellent support.

I am in LOVE with my Birks!!! They are so comfy right out of the box with no breaking in necessary! I got the black oiled leather cause I really like the look of the matte black. The narrow width is comparable to the normal B medium width in shoes for me. I’ve read that the regular width for Birks is similar to a wide width.

My first pair of Birks and I love them! So happy with the soft footbed, too ????????

A long time ago (like 15 or so years ago) I had a pair without the soft cushion. The soft cushion makes a slight difference but isn’t necessary. The slipper takes on the shape of your foot, and the slipper is really comfy to begin with. It’s a few dollars extra so I decided to try it. Let’s see how it holds up in the long run. I also noticed that their shoes have gotten bigger (unless my feet have shrunk). My first pair, years ago, was a 38. This time I ordered the 38 and had to return it and get a 37. It’s a great shoe — perfect for summer but works for spring/fall as well. It gets better with age. Love this shoe!!

GREAT SHOE - JUST TAKE THEIR ADVICE AND ORDER NARROW WIDTH.

Love them. Such a reliable favorite.

The Arizona soft footbed is very comfortable on the soles of the feet. There is no need for a break-in period before you can wear them. Good quality and these sandals are well made. The normal width fits my wide foot well. These are the most comfortable sandals I wear.

These are my third pair. i don't want to wear anything else.

Always loved birkenstocks. I used to be a size 38, but had to change it for a 37. I don’t think my feet shrank. Haha! Great shoes, and I’m glad they now come with a soft footbed — not that it was needed. Even the Birks without the soft footbed are excellent. But for an extra $10, I went for it. It feels great. Like I’m walking with pillows on my soles. I’m still in the middle of winter, but I wear a common size and didn’t want to wait for it to go out of stock. Oh and make sure you get the leather ones. Birko-flor comes apart in a humid atmosphere, and doesn’t mold to the shape of your foot like the oiled-leather ones do. Oh, and on a side-note, beware the suede ones. Those stretch out way too much. Good luck on your search! :)
