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

These shoes are very high quality. I will say that the brand recommends sizing up for half sizes, but sizing down was a better fit for me. However, I could tell they'd been worn a bit and there was a slight stain, so I returned them.

Too narrow. They rubbed my heel bad just from trying them on. Too bad, they are very stylish and look like they’d last forever

My feet slid around and were now at all comfortable.

Y’all sent me gray instead of black

this is my 4th pair of birds.. same style.. but this pair is unusually wide.. to the point I had to have another hole punched just to be able to walk well.. I will be more discerning in the future, as to the width.

Lovely shoes however there was a chunk of the footbed missing. Sending back. Got some locally.

I keep wanting to love Birkenstocks, but just can't seem to find the right fit. These the arch was way too high for me, to the point my heel didn't touch the shoe. They were an "ok," but since I didn't LOVE them - I sent them back. :(

The leather is very stiff. I'm not sure how this will work out.

I really liked these and the soft foot bed was MUCH more comfortable than the original style sole. But I could not make it any tighter and it was still slipping off my foot. Just not a good fit for me

Painful sandals that will take a while before they feel comfortable.

Unfortunately, these did not work for me. I have a high arch and the straps caused blisters on the top of my feet.

I have a narrow foot and was hoping these would fit. As a friend said there isn’t a narrow in this brand. Description says soft foot bed. But I sure wouldn’t call it soft.

Sandals did not fit properly on foot. Uncomfortable.

While they're comfortable, I've found the shade of grey to be inconsistent. I ordered one pair and they were a darker grey but the staining was variable between left and ride sandal. So I ordered a second pair and, while the staining this time was consistent, they were a much lighter grey! Neither pair appear like the stain in the photo (a nice charcoal grey). Not even close. I will send the lighter grey back and keep the darker grey, even with inconsistent staining. Ugh.

Not as comfy as I thought it would be given that this has a soft footbed. They said it needs a break in period. I will give it a try. Also the straps were too long, I needed to use the last hole, and even then it is slightly loose so I may need to poke an extra hole. The shoe box arrived damage.

I really wanted to love these, but even with a narrow footbed, my long narrow feet wanted to slide forward beyond the front of the shoes. If I tightened the straps, they irritated my toes. Great shoes, just not for my feet.

Stiff out of the box. It was pretty soft and comfortable leather, though the limits of a belt style clasps is clear in limiting the fit and the sole was so stiff that I decided to return it.

I returned these. I don't know how long you must wait for these to "mold to your foot" and become "the most comfortable thing you've ever worn", but it was taking too long for me. At this price point I need to know whether a shoe will truly meet my urban hiking needs and I need to know quickly.

I love the look of these shoes, the quality of their construction, but after trying three different sizes, I’ve finally excepted that I cannot wear them. The Birkenstock insole hits the underside of a prominent bone just above my arch on both feet causing pain with each step. I’m so disappointed.

Very inconsistent colour, I tried on same in store and it was way lighter than this but I do like the distressed look. Also very stiff leather, like almost impossible to even buckle up. I know it would break in but it was a lot stiffer than any Birkenstock I’ve ever had so it had to go back. .

I am so sad. I just think I can't wear Birkenstocks :-(. I am a women's 5.5. I have now ordered so many pairs wide and narrow fit (I have flat feet) and they just hurt so bad even trying them on. I have adjusted the buckles - did everything and pain instantly shoots up my legs. I am really bummed. I love love how they look but I just must have some odd flat feet that don't work with Birks.

I love the look of Birkenstocks but they feel strange on my foot and are too wide.

The top buckled strap hit my ankle in just the wrong place, felt like it was cutting into my foot each time I took a step.

I have had over 10 pairs of this model of Birkenstocks. This is the first pair where the leather straps are not softening up. I just can't seem to break them in.
