I love these sandals. I have been wearing this type for over 15 years. I have flat feet, and the Birkenstock footbed is the most comfortable for me.

I'm a long time Birkenstock owner, but this was my first Zappos experience and first soft footbed for Birkenstock shoes. Both are fantastic! The super fast delivery from Zappos blew me away! I totally didn't expect to receive the shoes the next day, but when I saw that box I was very pleasantly surprised. The soft footbed on these shoes took virtually no time to break in. This was great since the last pair of Birkenstocks took days (maybe weeks) to break in. Most comfortable shoes ever!

Great sandals! Very comfortable. The extra support that the molded footbed offers makes a huge difference. I've been wearing them almost exclusively for the last three weeks both in Key West and New York City. The only small downside is that thenleather straps do stretch quite a bit.

For me the soft foobed is a great improvement over the standard footbed. It provides improved heal comfort. The arc support remains excellent.

I wear Birkenstock sandals all the time and can never find what I want in the store. They run a little larger than size but are very comfortable.

I have worn Birkenstocks for years but these were my first pair of the soft footbed. I am now a convert of the soft footbed. I have plantar faciitis and these were so comfortable. I will buy another pair for sure!

Wow, how Birkenstock has changed. While they look like the same shoes I bought in 1986, they're not! I just remembered today how back in '86 I vowed to never buy Birkenstocks again. Terrible pain to break in. Hard hitting the pavement. Glad I forgot about that experience...after one full day of trucking around, I'm happy as a clam at high tide. They got more comfortable as the day passed.

Exceptionally comfortable sandal! Does not slip off your feet like some do. Great arch support. Outstanding buy if you are looking for value as I have worn mine for 3 months and they still look great, even the sole!

Although I wear orthotics, I found these sandals to be extremely comfortable and enough support.

I only wear Birkenstocks, I don\\\'t own any other kind of shoes.This pair, with the soft footbed, are beyond comfortable. The color is great for fall, in fact I just wore them to my niece\\\'s wedding ! I love shopping Zappo\\\'s because the whole experience is warm and friendly. They couldn\\\'t possibly make it any easier.

We keep buying and wearing these. They are a standard shoe in the family. My kids say they are ugly, but they keep wearing them all the time. Their feet love them.

This is my 4th pair of Birkenstocks. I love them. I put them on and started wearing immediately. No breaking in required. My family loves shopping at Zappos. We always get our orders earlier than promised.

I bought my first pair of Birk's on a friend's recommendation. I have Plantar Fasciitis as well as a neuroma which cause my toes to lock at the 2nd joint. I hadn't been able to wear anything other than sneakers and not be in pain. Since I bought my first pair, Mayari, I have purchased 2 more, Arizona, with the soft footbed, which I prefer. I am also going to get a couple pairs of clogs for the fall & winter. One word of advice, I feel they run larger than normal. My normal size is a womens 9 and I ordered a 38 which I believe is the equivalent of a women's 7. Zappos is fantastic and wouldn't hesitate to tell anyone about them. Fast shipping & wonderful CSR's. Thanks Zappos!

Very comfortable. I had some foot surgery and nothing was going to fit my foot. This worked great!

I ordered these for my daughter. She was pregnant with their first child and her feet were swelling horribly. She loved these because she could adjust the straps and she said they really felt good on her feet.

You can buy this very comfortable shoes in many places, but getting it at Zappos is more fun, effortless, and can be done while sitting. you don't have to walk until the shoe speedily arrives at your door, and when it does, you will have a terrific experience. Very orthotic correct. These go from beach to town very fashionably.

The service at Zappos is amazing like always. The Birks are very comfortable, not the best looking shoe but very comfortable. These did run a size too big so order a size smaller.

I own several pairs of Birkenstock\'s, but it\'s been awhile since I purchased a new pair. I was surprised to hear about the new soft footbed, so I had to try them. These are so comfortable. I don\'t have to break them in. I got them last week and I\'m looking forward to wearing them on my vacation next week.

After foot surgery, podiatrist recommended open toe, adjustable Birkenstocks for summer. Good solid arch support and toe grips. The "soft" foot bed totally makes this sandal way comfortable! Once again thanks Zappos, I placed order on Wednesday and they showed up the next day...nice moves!

I love the Soft Footbed Birkenstock shoes! I already have two pair of the Florida Soft Footbed style and purchased the Arizona as my house shoes (slippers). I find the regular cork foot bed too hard on my feet especially after having foot surgery. With the Soft Footbed there is no break in period. Between the excellent arch support and the Soft Footbed heaven!

I have been a Birkenstock wearer for over 20 years and the new soft footbed is TO DIE FOR! I have tons of tile floor in my house so I have to wear shoes when I am home on the weekends or my feet ache. I put these on the minute I walk in the door and I dont take them off until I go to bed. They have significantly helped to decrease my plantar fasciitis. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THESE SHOES!
