Customer Reviews Birkenstock Gizeh Oiled Leather

Love these... Best shoe ever...I'm an 8.5-9 usually, these are 40 narrow and they are perfect! I got the black patent...I want them in every color.

Classy Birkenstock - I bought this shoe in black patent and I really like it. It has an edge to it that other Birks don't have. I teach elementary school and I can wear them all day. And they look good too.

Great little shoe - This is an awesome Birkenstock shoe. I’ve recently had foot surgery, and these shoes are the only thing that seems to help me. This one is a bit tight on the toes at first, but will loosen. Love them!

Gizeh Review - I think these shoes are wonderful. I have always been skeptical about Birkenstocks in the past but I found a style that I love and I must say I am impressed.

Very Happy - I would like to say I'm very happy not only with the sandals but in the way everything was handled when I ordered the wrong size. You sent me the return slip along with the right size sandal and only billed my credit card once. Thank you.

Great looking shoe, with jeans, shorts, skirts. Very comfortable and easy to walk in. Love them!

Gizeh review - Fantastic deal on a supremely comfortable shoe!

Birkenstock's Gizeh - I have narrow feet with a high instep. These fit great, but take some getting used to. It took me a few tries to get the size right. I finally went to a local store and worked with a sales person - trouble was the store didn't carry narrow and Zappos did!

Excellent and Fashionable - I was not a Birkenstock girl but having torn my Achilles, needed a shoe that was functional yet fashionable. I love these shoes. They are funky, go with everything and fit like a glove. They match many outfits and do not look like your typical style Birks.

Comfortable & fashionable - I don't always like the look of Birks (though I always love the feel of them), but I absolutely LOVE the look of these Gizehs. I purchased the silver ones which are, in my opinion, the best looking and most versatile of the colors. These are my second pair and they do not disappoint. I wear them with nearly everything (jeans, shorts, skirts) and always get compliments on them. As a busy mother of two young children I walk a lot and find that my feet never hurt after a day spent in these shoes. The toe piece takes a little getting used to, but once you do you barely notice it. The Gizehs get my highest recommendation.

Love the Birkenstock Gizeh - I got this in the black patent and absolutely adore it! It gives the comfort of a Birkenstock with a slightly more stylish look. The black patent is really versatile too... cute with cargo pants, crops, etc. I did order a narrow and agree with other reviewers that this gives the shoe a slightly more streamlined appearance, and less of a wide, flat, more traditional Birkenstock look. I highly recommend this shoe as the perfect combination of comfort AND fashion!

I love that this shoe has a more feminine look than what is usually associated with Birkenstocks. I really love this shoe, and so does everyone else when I wear them out. The only criticism is with the band in between the toes. It is made of a hard plastic and sometimes it hurts if you step into it wrong. But besides that, this shoe is so incredibly comfortable in every other way. I have owned 2-3 pairs of the Milano's, and they're rather hot in the summer because the straps are so wide. This shoe is nice and cool on hot days. If I could wear shoes like this to work I would never take them off!

Gorgeous Gizeh - I love this shoe -- the thong part at first gave me searing pain all the way up to my scalp, and I thought "Oh no, I'm not going to be able to wear these fabulous shoes" -- but, somehow, my foot has adjusted and you learn how to walk in these! I wear them lots and my feet and legs are very comfortable! I put moleskin around the thong part just to ease the hardness and it helps (you can't see that it's there); my feet are wide but not really wide, and I took a chance on the Narrow because the medium was out of stock --- it worked! They fit perfectly! So, you can take a chance on that if your feet aren't *too* wide! And of course, fast fast shipping!

SUPER! Comfortable (after a day or two of breaking in), and the silver is nice-looking. Zappos could use more styles! My only wish: that Zappos would offer a hipper range of Birkenstocks, Birkis and Papillios. In shops I've found SUCH cool colors (including a soft, pale, metallic pink!!!), but I'd rather buy from Zappos. (^_^)

Very comfortable shoe (as usual for a Birkenstock!!) dresses up an outfit!

Love this shoe!!! I love this shoe - looks great with everything and much more stylish than what I usually associate with Birkenstock's. I have the silver and just ordered the brown. They are so cool!

I love this style and I also really need the narrow, not as clunky and fit perfect

Buy these in every color! I have been wearing Birkenstock sandals for years and the Gizeh style is the most comfortable and stylish. I have them in three colors, and always get compliments when I wear my burgundy or silver pairs. They are very feminine, but have the traditional Birkenstock comfort!

The best - These shoes are the best. Best quality, best comfort and Zappos gets them to you fast.

Kissing my feet! I love these shoes and everything about them. They are comfortable (of course, they're Birkenstocks), they are stylish, and I love the Patent Birko-Flor dressy/casual when necessary. This is my second pair in this style!

Best shoe I've ever owned - This shoe is fabulous. It is by far the most comfortable shoe I've owned, and you can wear it with anything! Jeans, sundresses, dress it up or down. The bronze is very muted, so it's not obnoxious, just interesting and stylish. I LOVE this shoe!! I have wider feet, so my toes hang over the edge of most sandals, but not these. I wore this shoe on a two week trip in Germany walking EVERYwhere and my feet felt fabulous! It only took a week or two to break in, at first the part between the toes was a bit tight, but it loosened up quickly, now I wear these shoes constantly. Highly recommended, worth more than the price!

KUDOS - This style is my second favorite of Birkenstocks. My orthopedic physician suggested I start wearing Birk's over 15 years ago. Now, it's difficult for me to find a more comfortable shoe than Birks. I'm spoiled, especially when I have to play "dress-up" and wear "people" shoes.

L-U-V!!! I have never owned a pair of Birk's and now I am a convert! So comfortable and so stylin' (I bought the silver metallic thong sandals). I am buying Birk's for my friends for birthday gifts because I know they will love them as much as I do.

The best thing about these shoes is they are not like a flip flop. They stay on your foot with each step without moving. Although they take a little bit of time to break in, they fit like a dream! (They also last forever!) I have always received compliments on these shoes, especially the funky patterned ones.

Love this style of Birkenstock because I have a narrow foot. Sadly had to return this pair. It was too wide even on last hole of buckle. Super easy return and I actually ordered another pair same size. Hoping it will be more narrow. I have brown and black and they fit perfectly.
