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

These are really cute shoes. They aren’t nearly as wide as most Birkenstocks. Even though these are really cute, they aren’t very comfortable. These wouldn’t be the shoes I would wear to walk around for awhile. The strap is pretty high on the foot, which makes the sole flop against your foot when you walk.

My first pair of Birks. I bought these a year ago and have worn them daily. Very happy with them. It was hard to get used to them when I first started wearing them but that didn't last long.

Cute - Narrow way better but why so long? Might order the 6-6.5 to see if length better Not as much support as I was hoping for tho....we'll see.

These are a cute alternative to the typical Birkenstock sandal. They do flop more with only having one strap. I actually really like the narrow fit-I always wear a medium width and don't consider my feet particularly narrow, but these had a nice feel to them.

Wow! These run large for sure! I always wear a 5.5 so I ordered the size 36 as recommended and there was an entire INCH left of space behind my foot. I am so sad I have to return these because they are comfy, and not bulky looking like other traditional Birkenstocks.

I like the fact that the buckle and strap color are the same. I have a pair of silver madrid. Compared to the Arizona that I have in the same size 38. These are a bit more narrow at the toe area but not to much. These are comfortable shoes that wear like a slide. If your feet are fairly normal not narrow but not wide also. You will like the fit. Get your size according to the size you wear European and you should be fine.

I'm a 7N and struggle to find shoes that are narrow enough for me. So many shoes in my closet are mediums that I've had to "doctor" with pads, etc. I haven't worn Birkenstocks for years and I'm glad to be back wearing these stylish slides. The silver dresses them up a bit so they will be perfect for sundresses when I don't feel like wearing a wedge. Adjustable buckle is great for me as the circumference around the ball of my feet is thin. I really love the look of the Gizeh sandals, but the thong was too rigid and uncomfortable between my toes. The Madrids are a great compromise for me!

I never thought I'd be purchasing Birkenstock sandals since I always thought the older styles were bulky and masculine looking. The Madrid Birkenstock sandal is stylish and comfortable with no break in period needed. These are great sandals that go with all your clothes options (dresses, shorts, etc.)

I bought these because I had a healing tattoo on the top of my foot and couldn't wear flip-flops to my workplace. They did the trick in looking just formal enough to avoid getting me in trouble, and they were comfy. I can't say they're as stylish as the version with the wider strap that all the high school girls are wearing these days, but they do have a slightly feminine look that helped my wide feet look less hobbit-like. They did the job.

The ease of slipping these shoes on is great. I find them very comfortable now, but I do need to mention that it takes a while for the shoes and your feet to agree with each other. My advice is to use them in 1-2 hour increments until they have gotten used to each other. I made the mistake of going out for one whole day with these shoes during the first week, by the end of that day my feet hurt really bad! I stopped wearing them for a few days (because my feet still were sensitive) but gave them a chance again after. I decided to use them only while I prepared breakfast before getting dressed to work. Slowly but surely I was able to wear them in longer batches of time and now I love them and use them all day long. They look great too!

Love, love, love these. Cute, comfy and a nice addition to my birkenstock collection :)

It's a decent slipper style sandals. The insole is not supportive but better than regular flip flops. Arch support is decent. Surprised that it did not come in a box! It came in a plastic bag that did not even say Birkenstock on it. So if it's going to be a gift, you should keep this in mind.

I wanted medium width, not narrow.

I like the sueded cork footbed because my feet don't slide, but it is a different feeling footbed. I think my feet will take a little while to get used to it. Overall I like the sandal. I usually wear a 9 1/2 and got a size 41. Might have been able to wear the 40.

My third pair of Madrids. I had planter facitis in my left foot after wearing flip flops all summer two years ago. I tried to relieve it with ice, exercise and inserts. Only some relief. A friend told me that birkenstocks are good for that condition. So I tried them. I have a narrow foot and was happy to see the madrids came in narrow. Well they really are a medium width but are fine for my narrow feet as long they are fastened on the closest hole. Very comfy, can wear them all day They also helped my planter fascia.

I have been looking for narrow Birkenstocks for a while without much luck. I wasn't sure this style would fit my narrow foot but once the strap was adjusted it fit just fine. Good casual slide but not for going up and down stairs.

I was looking for a shoe to wear around the house this summer that had more support than flipflops, yet was comfortable. These fit the bill nicely. I normally wear size 7, but ordered down a half size. The 6.5 is a little short but I can wear them. I would advise ordering your normal size.

I really like the brownish beige color. Has a bit of a shimmer to it, almost bronze. Took several wears to adjust to the foot bed. Some initial arch discomfort. Overall great casual sandal.

I bought this pair to wear at home. I like the more expensive one with soft heel more, but this is great for the money. Looks nice too.

I love these sandals. they are cute and super supportive. I bought them for my vacation in which I would be walking a lot and my feet felt awesome! I also have super high arches so these are much better than the super flat flip flops. I like this black leather much better than the black shiny one. I also have wide feet and they are perfect for those as well.

Cute and comfy. Silver color allows it to go with a lot of outfits. However, I am a size 6.5 I ordered the Euro size 37 which is supposed to fit 6.5-7.0. It was at least a full size too big. Not sure if I will take the trouble to return it for the 36.

This shoe is very attractive but hurt my foot (rubbed against the joint before my big toe on both feet). I guess my feet are just odd or not suitable for "feminine" Birkenstocks. I was so looking forward to them.

These are nice, basic comfortable slides. The color is really nice. Didn't purchase them with style in mind, which is okay!

I was excited to try my first pair of Birkenstocks! This relatively new style looks simple and stylish enough in black to be versatile. However, I ordered a 37 - the size that I wear 95 percent of the time, and they were huge. I am reordering in size 36 and getting the black patent leather which I did not see as an option the first time around.

I have never owned Birkenstocks before and I really like them. They are well made and comfortable; however, I have been wearing them regularly and they still haven't "broken in" yet. Probably why they last so long! I usually wear a size 8.5W or 9M and the 39 fits but just barely. Love Zappos too! Always great delivery and service.
