Customer Reviews Birkenstock Kids Rio (Toddler/Little Kid/Big Kid)

My daughter loves these silver sandals! She wore out a pair she had for two years that we bought for stability after she broke a toe. They have such great arch support and we're so cute, that they soon became her favorites! We re-ordered two sizes up when she was spilling over and they fit just right, except that she could use a little extra width (they only come in narrow for some reason), so we called to exchange for the next size up to give room to grow. As usual, we had excellent shop times and customer service with Zappos!

I ordered these for my three year old and my six year old. I ordered size 8 and 12½ they sent me a 7 and a 12, the 7 is fine, I am actually glad that we got a smaller size than I had ordered. The 7 is a bit big, an 8 would have been huge. the 12 however is much too small for my six year old. Her toes pop over the edge. I am really disappointed. One pair will go back the other is staying.

So bummed about these. The fit and comfort are typical Birkenstock but the mirror-pink color rubbed off considerably at the base and across the ankle strap during the first wear. I expect more for the price.

Beware that these shoes are marked narrow width and when you buy them the box has an "n" on it meaning the shoes runs narrow. When we tried them on in the shoe store my daughter the strap had to be fastened on last hole, normally its the second hole from the end. We passed on buying these because she has kind of wide foot and I was afraid they might chafe.

I didn't give a 5 because the clasp broke, it must have Ben a defective clasp. She wore twice so I am very disappointed. I would purchase again because I feel the brand is good and clasp must have been defective. Not to mention how cute it fits my grand baby.

I really wanted to love these but the arch was really high and the bottoms were very stiff and they ran extremely wide. Such a cute color but not for us.

The shoes were super cute and sparkly. However, I am not sure if it was because the shoes ran larger in length that my 5 year old said they weren't comfortable. Keep in mind the food bed has a very defined place for the foot to fit in and also for the toes. Also my daughter has an average width foot but the narrow width was very wide. Overall the length and width of the shoot was not a good fit at all. It's too bad since they are super cute. Also she found the material to be itchy. One thing I found to be a bit of an annoyance is that the straps do not have a velcro closure and they are a bit stiff. I think for a young child it is difficult to adjust the ankle strap by themselves, especially when she is able to put on all of her other shoes independently.

This was an all around great shoe except that the straps were still too tight on the last setting. My daughter does not have an overly large foot and most sandals that don’t have adjustable foot straps are simply too big for her. She had these a few years ago, but this time they didn’t work even though the footbed fit well.

I think my daughter would love them but unlike my burliest, they fit true to size...so when I bought a size down, they were too small. And the size she needs aren’t in stock. So I can’t say whether they are comfy or not since they didn’t fit and we had to return them. Not sure why size 32 is so hard to find, but Zappos apparently hasn’t ordered in that size for 3 years. Boo hoo

Strap style has been changed. Firstly, they are not leather anymore but secondly, the straps are too short to fit across my child's foot.

My daughter loved these "purple glass slippers" and they fit great but I am returning them because she wore them once inside and the metallic scrapes off and leaves a silver color where the scratch is. I would imagine all these metallics do that. I am going to try the light pink and see.

Love the style, fit (even though slightly large since it is a range of size), but the metallic pink wears to a silver after having for approx 1 month and frequent but not daily wear, wear is of a 1.5 yr old so moderately rough but not excessive. Mainly just around sides of sandal straps and noticeable to us, but still receive compliments. Wish color was as quality as shoe-probably wont outlast the shoe.

True to size and very narrow. So, the fit we just couldn't get right. They also were kind of heavy for a toddler. Seemed like she was clomping to walk. Precious style, just didn't work for her!

We loved these when we got them - color was perfect and they were comfortable as always but the pink color started to come off already the first time my daughter wore them! After 5 days almost all of the color is off the top strap covering the toes!

I only gave these 2 stars because of a sizing issue Birkenstock seems to be having and the inconvenience of having to track down & return. We love Birkenstocks and our whole family wears them. This year, my daughter needed a new pair of Rio's as she is about to grow out of her current pair. We ordered a 32 (she is in a 31 now) and when she put them on they seemed small...when I held them up to the current pair of 31s we have, they are exactly the same size. Just went back to re-order a new pair thinking it was a mistake but don't see any 32s available at all...were they all pulled? Ordered a 33 but will probably be too big unless Birkenstock has changed their sizing.

Cute sandals, great fit, but the color wore off within a week. That's the only reason why I won't give it a high rating. Otherwise my 4 y/o loves them!

My daughter wears size 13 consistently and we ordered 13-13.5. The straps on these sandals didn’t even buckle. I know they are “narrow” but be aware they most likely won’t fit your little one unless you order a size up….then expect them to be too long. Sadly disappointed.

Ordered size 34 for my 8yr old for a vacation and 24 came which is for babies. Obviously couldn’t use them and didn’t have enough time to get a new pair which was frustrating.

Ordered size 34 for my 8 year old before vacation and 24 came which is for babies. Was not able to use these and didn’t have enough time to get a new pair which was frustrating.
