Love this classic style, however I wish I had ordered the narrow width. Otherwise these are perfect!

Very comfortable. Returning and ordered another, as the pair I received as not in a Birkenstock box, no tags, and the leather had scratches on it, mostly the right foot. So hope to get a nice new pair because I really like the subtle color and soft footbed.

This product is great in comfortable level, but the size is way too big to fit into. My usually wear size 12, I ordered size 11 and they were too big for his feet. So, I had to exchange them twice to get the right fit.

I will not pretend to fully understand the Birkenstock love but I do know that I want to be a part of it, which lead to me purchasing two pairs .. one for my husband and one for me. He made the mistake?? of trying to walk in them immediately which led to some pretty serious ouchies . They do seem to fit so after reading some blogs we are trying the wear them around the house with socks to break them in approach. I am normally a size 9 so I ordered the size 40 regular and they felt way too loose so I opted for the 40 narrow . The narrow fit me strap wise but definitely also got smaller length wise so I will now be trying a 41 narrow.

I ordered the arizona style in the Iron color. The look is gorgeous, it is a great color for this style of shoe! The only aspect that I wish birkenstock could have considered is offering the narrow width for this shoe in this color. For some reason, the iron color is not offered in narrow. It is only offered in regular width. This forced me to size down, but it is comfortable so far! Zappos customer service helped me figure out the dilemma, and it's always delightful to receive help from them. Thank you Zappos, and birkenstock!

Really like my sandals. The leather is a bit tough, but once I break it in it should be just fine. Zappos didn’t drive down the driveway to put it at the front door, they literally dumped it in the field in front of my house. Thankfully it wasn’t stolen!!

I've been wearing Birkenstocks for years and I'm fine with these. I am a bit disappointed that this pair has scratches on the leather.

I ordered 1/2 size larger than my regular 8.5 as per the reviews... was too small. ordered a full size larger... same issue. Suggested fit is to allow a finger between the edge and foot and I guess I'm going to order the size 41/us ladies 10-10.5... haha one weird note.. when I ordered the size 39 the shoes came in a non-branded box and had some scratches. The second pair arrived in proper Berkenstock box and packaged really well as no one has ever opened the box before..

These are very stylish sandals you can wear during the warmer seasons of the year. The Soft foodbed is really comfortable. It does take some breaking into when you first wear it a few times. I purchased the size 42 N. I got a narrow and even went a half size down from my normal shoe size of 10 in US men. Pretty versatile sandals, but would not recommend wearing them for longer walks or hikes.

I was upset when my birkenstocks arrived with a very deep and large scratch on one of the shoes. I mean, how new could they be if the were handled enough to acquire such a significant scratch? I did have to sand the straps a bit to keep the rough edges them from hurting the tops of my feet but since then, theyve felt very nice. As someone with wide feet I was expecting to use some of the outer buckle holes for a looser fit, but I'm using the second buckle from the tightest and its still roomy. This surprised me. Aside from this these a great shoe! First time having a pair and I'm pretty happy.

This is my second pair of Arizona's with the soft footbed. These are comfortable but do not feel as soft as my first pair (purchased 2 years ago) so I wonder if they cut back on the cushion material. Generally Birkenstock run's big. I normally wear a size 9 US. These are a 39 which is supposed to be between 8.5 and 9 but these are labeled as 8-8.5. I'm happy with my purchase but just be aware of sizing.

Zappos is amazing! customer service is top notch! Had an issue with a defect in my Birks and they helped me out with an exchange. I initially called Birkenstock directly and they told me to talk to Zappos. Anyway, love the sandals and really appreciate the way they helped me out.

I Really wanted to love them. Second attempt at this style, this time with the soft bed, and a better size for me. I tried wearing gently around the house, but there was a disconcerting squelch when stepping, but the deal breaker was where the strap's upper portion hit my foot. It just didn't seem like it would ever feel comfortable. Maybe at some point, now that I know the correct size for me, I'll try again, with the original footbed, and suede.

Originally ordered size 37 but it was too big, even though in other companies I am a size 37. Size 36 owners well, a lot of arch support, almost to the point of hurting ??. Popular style, will last a long time (so I’ve heard), and the straps are adjustable.

I love these shoes but the leather is a bit stiff and rubbed my skin so I exchanged them for the suede. The suede is very soft and comfy!
