Love these! I have a pair that I love so much, I bought the same ones for my partner. We are both big fans of Birks, though she is a recent convert. Fewer footaches and backaches, more happiness.

Fit and size was great. I love birkenstocks beuase they learn your feet so well. The strap on the top was just enough to ensure a perfect fit.

I’ve been wearing Birks for more than 30 years, and this is my second pair of Boston clogs. Super comfy but very hard to find currently- this is also the first time a Zappos order did not arrive on time. These shoes took 10 days to arrive. I didn’t mind: I was really excited to find them in stock for a minute!
One note on the oiled leather: I have bought this material in other styles and the color is never what I expect from online photos and always distressed looking. If you don’t like the distressed look then I wouldn’t choose oiled leather Birks- opt for non-oiled leather or suede instead. Personally, I really like the look of the oiled leather clogs.

Love this style of Birkenstocks. As with all Birkenstocks they are super comfortable! I wear mine with socks which helps keep my feet warm. Great winter shoes!

Love these. The regular width fits my wide-ish postpartum foot well. I have several Birkenstock sandals in size 37 but sized up to 38 in these so I could have some extra room for cozy socks. Love them with or without socks and they fit perfectly out of the box like all birks do for me. I live in a warm area and wear birks most of the year (even have inside pairs) and it has helped mu plantar fasciitis so much that I rarely have problems now.

These shoes are easy for in the go! They look great with socks on during the fall and winter. As always, I loved Zappos fast and free shipping!

A little more narrow than I thought at the top of the foot but since it's leather I'm hoping it'll stretch out. Beautiful shoes though!

It is too soon to tell for sure after just one week, but they appear to be true to size and provide sufficient support. The leather is still a little stiff but will soften with wear, I'm sure. There is adequate room for my toes, both in width and height, which was an important consideration.
I'd also recommend:
Asics, Nunn Bush, Cole Hahn, Teva

This is an old favorite and will get them again once they wear out! The only thing is that the color is a bit different than in the photos. It is closer to green-oak.

I usually wear a size 38 in Birkenstock sandals and they fit like a glove. But because these clogs are closed toe I went up a size to 39 and the fit great especially with wool socks. Very happy with the fit and quality!

The fit is accurate and the adjustable straps allow you to hone that fit in even more accurately. I was skeptical of these, after trying them on at a local foot store. I couldn't understand how there could be so many devoted wearers of Birkenstocks. They felt so uncomfortable at first try-on. After reading a crap-ton of reviews and whole guides on the break-in process, I finally decided to bite the bullet and see if the hype was legit. When these arrived, I put them on, and they felt awful. Like wearing bricks. Just so hard and uncomfortable. But having owned them for a month now, they've finally broken in and feel amazing. Totally contoured to my feet. Now I find myself having feet pain when I wear anything else but these Birkenstocks. Ugly as sin, but I still recommend 'em.

Just as good as I remember! As usual, I had to order a size down, as these run larger than most other brands.

Love the color and richness of the leather, and of course the Birkenstock footbed.

Sizing is a little off but perfect otherwise! I’m a true womens 7.5 and the 37 (womens 6) fits like a glove. Glad I listened to other reviews and sized down
