Customer Reviews Birkenstock Madrid - Birko-Flor™ & Birkibuc™

I wanted these as a more delicate/feminine alternative to the Arizona style Birk, which I find to look a bit bulky at times. I typically size down (from a 38) to a 37 regular in Birks, so went with the 37 narrow in this style. Even though I have a narrow foot I was worried the narrow width wouldn't work - but it's perfection & fits better than the 37 regular I normally take. I ordered the Toffee, which is pretty accurately depicted in the photo as bronze with a very slight sheen - very neutral and will go with most things. These are extremely comfortable right out of the box and I predict this will be my favourite Birkenstock style as it is definitely daintier. Love.

I ordered these in the white patent and black. I am keeping the white. My college age daughter and friends preferred the black, but I liked the patent, wish they had black patent. Overall the shoe so far is very comfortable and I love how they look considering they are Birkenstocks.

I love these sandals! The styling, fit and price are wonderful. I recommended them to all the females in my family. Give the sandals a couple of weeks and they will mold to your feet like custom made shoes. Birkenstocks are fantastic!!!

ADORE THESE SHOES! I wear a 8.5 shoe, sometimes a 9, and got a 38 in these, at the suggestion of my mother, a true Birkenstock expert. At first, I thought, huge mistake, my toes will never fit in this footbed! But now they are broken in, they fit my foot like a dream. I wear these shoes all the time, they are unbelievably comfortable and always get compliments. "Those are Birkenstocks?" Highly recommend.

These are super cute and lightweight. I really love how they look. I usually wear a 7 but could use a 7½ for length. So I ordered the 38 in narrow. The width fit perfectly but they are actually too long. My foot does not sit in the footbed position correctly. They are a little irritating when my foot slides back. I should have gone with the 37. In the correct size, these would be excellent!

I love these sandals! I bought them in different colors. I wear them with shorts or dresses. They are comfortable and cute!

I just got these, so I cannot comment on the long term comfort; thus far they're great, a little snug. I would definitely suggest sizing down. I am typically 7.5, and ordered the 37 (6-6.5), probably could've gone another size too. I recommend these though! They're so stylish and cute.

I have no complaints about this purchase. The shoes shipped much faster than I anticipated (I chose standard shipping but got them in 2 days) and they fit the way I expected them to.

I'm confused that most find these fit as expected, maybe they are Birkenstock wearers who know to order a size down? These are a full size too big!

Great shoe! These are very comfortable and supportive - I wear them often. The smaller profile (I also wear the Arizona) is a bit more feminine and, while Birks will always have a bit of UC Berkeley graduate student aesthetic, these actually look nice with casual skirts and dresses. Love them.

Comfortable and fit true to size. They did rub the top of my foot a bit at first, but after a week they were broken in and no longer rub. If you have a wide foot, these may not work, they are pretty narrow.

Perfect fit! I have MS and have not been able to wear a slide-on shoe this year due to problems with my left leg not moving correctly. I ordered these and was so happy that I can actually walk without them sliding off my foot! Plus they are adorable! Thank you!

Extremely comfortable! I wore these for two days at an amusement park right after I got them and they were very comfortable. I was concerned they would need to be broken in first, but no problems!

I love these! They are a more feminine version of the Arizonas that I also have. They do flip flop when you walk, but still provide the arch support of a Birk. I wore them to Downtown Disney with no problems. They did take a few wears to break in. I am a solid size 8 and I wear a 38 in Birkenstocks which is smaller than their size chart. I would swim in the 39's.

I've always liked Birks and I think these are a little slimmer looking for my summer wardrobe. I love the silver. I ordered my normal size 39 and they fit my 8.5 foot perfectly.

I love this sandal -- it's easy, makes the smacking sound on the back of my heel like a flip-flop, and is so cute in white. I went the Birkenstock route after getting plantar fasciitis so these are stylish and cute in a world of ugly arch support shoes. Birkenstock has crazy sizing if you're not used to it though -- I'm an 8 in US sizes and ordered the equivalent of 6-6.5 (37) in these. Also, I have a very wide foot but these only come in narrow and fit well regardless.

They're so cute and comfortable! I get tons of compliments on the silver! I pretty much wear them everyday.

I was worried that these would be hard to keep on my feet, but they stay on just like flip flops. Only way more support! They rubbed the top of my foot the first couple times I wore them, all good now!

Love this sandal for summer! I can go all day, even on vacation with tons of walking, and my feet never hurt. I wouldn't be without them! The light bronze color of the strap has just enough sheen to give it some interest.

These are so comfortable and cute! The one strap has a feminine look to it which I love. I wear them with everything from jeans to dresses!

LOVE these shoes! They are so cute and fashionable. They are also so very comfortable!

I received these as a birthday gift and needed to exchange size and color. I have to start this review by giving kudos to Zappos exceptional customer service. Wow! Not only did I get my exchange within 24 hours BUT I received a handwritten birthday card from the person who helped me. Wow again! The third Wow! is for these sandals. Oh so cute with the metallic sheen that goes with everything. They perfectly hide "the bunions" and give great support. I know this because this is my third pair and go to summer sandal.

I love these sandals. My first and only success with this "dorky" brand. By adjusting the strap all the way to the smallest fitting hole, the sandals fit like a dream. No rubs, no break in needed. All set for summer.

I bought the Madrid slip on in silver. They are wonderful! I'm a size 6 and bought EU36. They fit perfectly. I wear them constantly and they are very very comfortable. I get many compliments on them and they go with so many things! Great purchase for your feet (and wardrobe)!

First, lets start this off by saying Zappos sent me the patent version instead of the one shown which is slightly disappointing. These shoes are great, perfect for walking and true to size! I normally wear a 6.5/7 and a 37 fit perfectly.
