So cute, but... I loved this sandal. It looks so feminine for a Birkenstock & the soft footbed is so comfortable. The suede was super soft, too & I really liked the taupe color for summer. I usually wear a 9.5 WW in other shoes & a 39 R in Birkenstocks. The footbed & toe strap were perfect, but the ankle strap was too short. I'm very sad that I had to send them back.

Had to return - much too big. I wear a 7-1/2 wide and ordered their 38 - at least a size too large and their regular is very wide.

I love these shoes. They are ridiculously comfortable, and the soft footbed made them feel good out of the box. I am really happy with these sandals. While they aren't necessarily fashion forward, they are pretty cute, especially for Birks. Be warned, however, that these do run really large. I recommend ordering at least one full size down.

This is my third pair of Birkenstocks, and I love these! I've never had a style with an ankle strap and these are just as fabulous and comfortable as my other two pair. Quality construction, heavy leather straps, and the footbed is so comfortable.

These are my favorite shoes! I have owned many pairs of Birks, but the soft footbed made these the best I've ever worn. I am sad to put these away for the colder months.

I love these shoes. I was able to wear them 8+ hours the day after I got them and the footbed is ridiculously comfortable. The ankle strap also secures your foot in so you are never worried about your feet slipping out.

I love these sandals! They are very comfortable and the fit is terrific. I work on a cement floor and can wear these all week in comfort. Not many shoes pass this test. Terrific foot support!

I have plantar fasciitis, so need good arch support, and these sandals have that! However, I sent them back because I don't have the patience to buckle and unbuckle every time! I'm going to try the Florida sandals with the soft footbed. Much quicker on and off.

This sandal is very comfortable and I like the ankle strap for added support. I usually wear size 39 or 8W in other brands but a 38 fit perfectly with ample space for my wide feet. This is my first pair of Birkenstocks and I'll definitely be purchasing more in the future!

Great sandals. The soft footbed is nice. No break in period. I wear a size 10 med. width. They are just a bit wide, but not enough to warrant the narrow width.

I think these are so adorable! The back strap was a bit stiff when I first wore them a few times, but I can tell it's already starting to soften up, and get more comfy. The foot bed is super cushy, but you still get the support underneath. I love the cut-out detailing, very cute!

The product sent was great, especially the customer service and delivery. We would like to sincerely thank all the Zappos representatives we dealt with. They were all very upbeat and extremely polite. Being in the customer service arena for many years, I can say thank you for the great service.

I love these sandals. The soft footbed is just enough to make them cushy without drastically changing the feel of the Birkenstock footbed.

This shoe is so comfortable! I like the ankle strap, I don't have to worry about the shoe sliding off my foot in rougher terrain. I'm just a little worried to get them wet.

These are great sandals. I have problem feet (bunion and a Morton neuroma) and these give me enough support to be able to go walk around the block pain-free. The ankle strap makes them a lot more supportive than my Arizona Birkenstocks, which are fine for around the house but nothing more than than. The ankle strap was really uncomfortable at first, but I broke these in over a period of a few weeks (just an hour or two at a time) and now the leather is very soft and comfortable. Plus they are much cuter than most Birkenstock styles.

These run true to size and are very comfortable, as are all well-fitted Birkenstock shoes. Unless it's raining or there's new snow, I'll wear them in winter as well with beautiful heavy socks. You can't go wrong with Birkenstock shoes, especially if you suffer from foot aches and pains. You can never go wrong with Zappos, who will accept return after return. They pay for all shipping incurred, until you get it right.

I love the new soft footbed, unbelievably comfortable! The shoe fits perfectly and suits my need for a strap so I do not accidentally slide out of my shoe!

This was my first Zappos purchase, and I was astounded by the fast shipping. The price was much lower than the cost in my local store, and the staff there told me they couldn't even order this particular shoe in my size! The shoes are perfect. I love the dainty straps instead of the usually-bulky straps of traditional Birkenstocks. I would definitely recommend Zappos. In fact, I already have!

Just what I wanted. Fit was fine. Arrived the next day. I wore them to a high school reunion. Don't ask which one. Comfy, as are all my other Birkenstocks. Thanks.

This is my favorite Birkenstock sandal, and my favorite overall sandal. It is extremely comfortable, feminine looking, and just always feels good. I can wear the Bali soft footbed anywhere, no matter how much walking I do. Paint your toe nails a pretty color and wear this sandal. You'll love them!

I love Birkenstock shoes. There is nothing better for comfort, though they sometimes lack in "beauty".These are my favorites. They walked me all over the "Big Apple" right out of the box. If you have a medium width foot, order them narrow. I wear a 38 regular width because I like the extra toe space. That's a 7.5 wide - US sizes.

These sandals have great arch support and the footbed is soft from the beginning. They do take a bit to get the leather to not be so stiff, but it\'s only a day or so! Well worth the money.

I love all Birkenstock shoes, but these are my very favorites! They took no time at all to break in, and they're the most comfortable shoes I've ever put on my feet. They are SO cute! I wish they came in more colors, because I'd have a pair in every color. This was my first time ordering from Zappos, and I couldn't believe how quickly I received my shoes. I WILL order from Zappos again!
