Amazing Birkenstock - I have liked Birkenstocks since the early 80's. My fiance introduced them to me and I have had a pair ever since. The first Birki that I got lasted 20 years. I expect this one to do the same.

Pleased - I give them all 5 stars. This is my third pair of Birkenstock's and they're the best shoes I've ever had. A little pricey yes, but since my last pair of clogs lasted nearly 5 years, I think it's worth it. Plus Zappos did a great job for shipping my order very quickly. So far I've been very pleased with my shopping off of Zappos, keep it up!

Broken Toe - This shoe was perfect for me, because I broke my toe. I was on my way to a conference and unsure as to what I could wear on my feet. It was perfect with my low boot and didn't look too bad with my business outfits. After taking my boot off, I continued to wear the shoe and it was comfortable. My feet didn't hurt, but most of all my toe didn't hurt. Most importantly, my shoe was sent to me in one business day, even when I made a mistake in checking out. The customer service people where excellent! My foot is narrow and it is difficult to find shoes-Zappos is an answer to my prayers!

Excellent! These shoes feel good and look good- one of very few brands that fit my wide feet! If you don't have wide feet, be sure to order narrow.

I love these shoes. My first pair lasted 7 years of almost constant wear. I wore them everyday to work. As I was told they uncomfortable for the first two week because my foot wasn't used to being supported after that I never took them off. This pair I didn't have to have the break in period for my feet. I just slipped them on and pure bliss.

Boston Birks - My last Boston’s have lasted 9 years, the one before 6. I am a chef who uses them out of work as well and am looking to buy my 3rd pair. Thanks for the best shoe out there. I also have a broken foot yet get the support I need.

Mmmm...birks - The brown Birkenstock Boston's are the first pair of Birk's I ever bought--while pricey, they are totally worth it! They are so comfortable, and once you know what size you wear, you can buy the exact same size in all Birkenstock styles and types. You can wear them with anything - they are great!

Comfort and style - The recently purchased pair of Birkenstock's is as comfortable as my old well worn ones. The style is great for winter since I do not wear my sandals with socks at that time. Fit is the same we have grown to expect from Birkenstocks. Great addition to my shoe wardrobe!

Why do I need other shoes? I love these Birky's. I'm one of those few people who has chronically cold feet. Although I like my Birkenstock sandals, I wear my Boston's (I have several pairs) year round. They are so comfortable that I'll choose them over tennis shoes.

I LOVE MY BOSTONS! I bought a pair of Bostons about 6 months ago, and have probably worn them 4 days out of every week since then. They are a little bit funny looking- but so are all Birkenstocks. If you love your feet, you will buy them some Birkenstocks. If I never had to dress up, I would wear Birkenstocks and Teva sandals all the time (which isn't to say Birks aren't dressy.. because they can be).. My only suggestion is to find out which size Birkenstock you wear, and buy them online on ebay or something. All the footbeds are the same- so they are shoes you can really buy without trying on.

Great overall shoe. I bought a pair of these shoes abotu a year ago and they barely leave my feet. they are great in the wintertime and look great with both jeans and kahkis. I suggest wearing them with socks. I am positive anyone who buys them will love them

Birkenstock Boston. Brilliant comfort, OK even when worn with socks. You can walk for miles in these, only don't try to run too quickly or you'll leave one behind sooner or later! Looks good with jeans but expect comments, not recommended for driving a car...

For flat and wide feet - These shoes are a mixed blessing because the built-in arch feels very high to my flat feet which crave something to hold them up, but at the end of the day it feels good to get out of them. I also like the feeling that my heel is seated low in them compared to other shoe styles. The foot bed is rather hard and may not be for everybody. The style is informal and looks well with slacks; the felted top is an unusual material for a shoe in my opinion.

I have HIGH arches so this shoe is perfect for me! :-) Just not crazy about the color and the suede. I'd love this in black or grey and in a hard leather... Regular Birkenstocks do NOT have high enough arch for me!! I NEVER understood why my friends raved about Birks... I only wish this HIGH ARCH came in other colors, materials... I would love a hard leather - this suede is too floppy and hard to slip on- I have replaced hips - so it's hard to bend down and put on the shoe... PLEASE ZAPPOS/BIRKENSTOCK do you HEAR me? PLEASE PLEASE offer the HIGH ARCH in other colors, styles, hard leather! THANKS! Kim who has HIGH arches! :-)

These shoes saved my feet. After recovering from plantar fasciitis 12 years ago, my feet began to hurt again. I ordered these shoes and lived in them as much as possible and voila! My feet are much better. Money and time saved by avoiding doctors' visits! Putting these shoes on makes my feet feel like they are on a spa vacation. I wish so much that Birkenstock would make the high arch fit in other styles and colors. One note: the color is more gray than pictured. I thought they would be a khaki color but the color is more neutral...which I really like. Great shoes!

I have always wanted a pair of these shoes, and I am so glad I finally bought a pair! The high arch is a added bonus, these are so cool looking and easy to wear. I love the casual laid back look, so these to me were a perfect addition to my style. The arch support is amazing, fit perfectly not to big or to small! I love that they have an adjustable buckle to make them a little wider or tighter.(like as they break in I will have to make them a little tighter) Great overall product, I just wish they had more colors available in this style because if so I would buy several pairs! Thank you Zappos you are the BEST!!!

I love high arch Birkenstocks for my problem-prone feet. I believe they cured my plantar fasciitis, and they keep my arches and knees happy. As others have said, you may want to order a narrow if you normally wear medium. Additionally, I ordered the same size in this Boston that I wear in the Arizona (and all other open-toed Birkenstocks) but it crowded my toes. I need a size larger in the Boston than in the Arizona and you may, too.

I love the arch support in these shoes...so comfortable. I also love just being able to slip these on and go. They were a bit stiff initially, but wore in great!

The Birkenstock Boston High Arch is the only shoe that I have found that has an excellent high arch support.

Fabulous! I wear a size 9-9.5 ordinarily. I have a medium width foot. I always order a size 40R in Birkenstocks and the Boston clog is no exception. They fit fabulous and look great. Birkenstocks aren't for everyone. Fashionistas may feel they look like duck feet. For me, they are super cool and don't look like you are trying to be cool. Best of all, they feel great! Zappos is the absolute best place to order any style shoe. Excellent customer service. VERY fast shipping. Thanks so much!!
