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

Great sandal - I saw an advertisement for the Birkenstock's Madrid in one of my magazines and immediately wanted them...Ordered them from Zappos that day and received them the very next day...I was impressed to say the least with Zappos...Immediate gratification!!! The shoes are super...Comfortable and smart looking...Thank you Zappos...

Comfort - These sandals are the most comfortable I have every worn. My feet are never sore.

I really like the style of these, especially the smaller buckle compared to the oversized ones. My only drawback is that they aren’t leather. I’ve only worn them a handful of times so I can’t speak to the durability yet. Since I usually wear barefoot shoes, the shape of the sole has made my feet a little sore. That said, based on my past experience with Birkenstocks, the sole tends to break down and mold to the foot over time, so I don’t expect this to be a long-term issue. The width is very comfortable. Hopefully they last as long as my previous pairs of leather Birkenstock's!

I typically wear 7.5 and went with a 38 at first, I felt that the shoe was longer than my foot, but the band was on the narrow size. Although I was worried about the band, I returned that and I got a 37. To my surprise the band was wider than the 38. I actually had to buckle it down on the second hole. So I would say try a few sizes, that's what's amazing about Zappos, they take the return easily if it doesn't fit. Now I have size 37 and it is plenty wide for me. I'm happy with the Birkenstock. About the comfort part, I'm still waiting for the magic part, that's my first one. It felt hard on my feet at first (which I read is normal and have to wait past this point) but it is very cute as far as Birkenstocks go and I'm still waiting for the comfort part.

I bought these in an 8N. It seems like the narrow has the same size footbed as a medium, and by tightening the strap, you can make it sort of narrow-ish. It felt okay on the tightest setting, but with such a wide footbed it looked pretty unattractive on my feet. Other than that, the cork soles are lightweight and nicely shaped to fit a human foot (just not mine). Too bad, I'm returning them.

Great at first, very comfortable, but after a couple of weeks usage the strap has gotten a lot bigger and I need to get new holes made for them to fit me.

Style and size were right but my toes kept hitting the edge of the shoe. Not for me.

The sandals fit fine. However they were obviously previously worn, with feet prints inside the sole, a broken and open box, and without the usual wearing advice leaflet that comes with Birkenstocks. It is dishonest to be selling used shoes for the full price and without disclosing they were worn.

The shoes are very comfortable. I have narrow feet, and they fit well.

These were very comfortable. I wore them quite frequently when I was touring Spain and had no issues. They are now my go to sandal.

I love it! Love the color and overall look of the shoe. You certainly have to break it in a bit to get it extra comfy!

Great style if you like Birkenstocks. I love the Madrid and the Madrid big buckle. I have 6 pair between the two styles. They support my feet all day. This pair is labeled copper but it really is more of a rose gold. Love the color.

Love these...I'm typically a 6.5-7.0 in sandals and the 37 fit perfectly. They did require a little breaking in...now they fit perfectly. Highly recommend.

I've first bought Birkenstocks when they were trendy, but now I buy them because I'm old and have a foot issue. Same great fitting, sturdy sandals. I'm not crazy about the material that comprise the strap as it cheapens the look. But they fit well and feel great, so a win overall.
