Great sandal and great service. I have worn Birkenstocks for over 30 years and purchasing them through Zappos was the best experience ever. Easy and quick.

The great quality that you have come to expect from the Birkenstock Arizona in a new Habana Oiled Leather style. The leather has a waxy oily feel and is quite stiff when new but in a couple of weeks of normal wear they soften up quite nicely! If you want a softer strap, get the Nubuck/suede or the traditional leather but I definitely would recommend the oiled leather as I have had the other 2 types of leather and prefer this finish. I use Mink Oil on the inside and the outside of the straps to keep the leather conditioned and warm water works well to wipe the dust off of the outside of the straps. I also have a pair of Birkenstock Milano in the Habana Oiled Leather and love the back strap when I need a more secure fit. You can't go wrong with the Birkenstock line of footwear.

I have worn Birkenstock Arizona sandals for many years and have found them extremely comfortable. Take care of them and they can be resoled and repaired any number of times by a good shoemaker. I especially like the oiled leather variety - no artificial components. Be careful you don't buy the narrow size unless that is what you want. I wear a size smaller with these sandals than with regular shoes. It is not a problem with manufacture but rather the way your foot fits onto the cork base. The sizing is absolutely consistent from one pair to the next. For me, Birkenstocks are the greatest sandals. I use them for everyday wear and as slippers around the house. It may take a few days for the cork to adjust to your foot but when that happens, the shoe will provide excellent support.

Birkenstock sandals and clogs are very comfortable and were recommended by my podiatrist. I love them and wear them year round.

This is my first order from Zappos and I could not be more satisfied! I have owned several pairs of Birkenstocks throughout the years and these are just as fantastic as the others I have purchased. Classic, quality, comfort, love!

These are very handsome shoes. I was tired of looking at the cheap and ugly summer shoes my husband always wears. He said it took a bit to get used to the foot bed (duh! They are actually good shoes) but he really likes them now.

These took about 2 weeks to completely break in, but once they did they felt amazing! I ordered the narrow version and they fit me well. I suggest ordering at least one size down from street shoe size. Thanks for the great service Zappos!

Felt and looked like the "42s" that are stretched out and got too big for me. And this is why I am shopping for Birkies!

Cute color, though not as pink as I would have liked. More wine/purple. I was a little hesitant on ordering the narrow size as my feet are wide in the toebox. My old Arizona's are over 15 years old and so worn in and comfie that these felts quite stiff and almost too narrow. But they fit without chafing and I figured they would stretch a bit. took almost a month of wearing with socks to be more comfortable. Almost returned thinking that the narrow may have been too narrow, but so far it's okay, and I decided to keep.

I was hoping that the unisex sizing would work for me, but sadly the sandals are too wide. Birkenstocks are great, but due to sizing issues I clearly need to stick to the styles for women.

I ordered a pair of these (Medium B) and even though I have narrow feet, these were excruciatingly narrow. I wanted to like them, but they pinched the sides of my feet. I checked the box and it said narrow! I'm sending them back.

I have planter fasciitis and I love the firm leather and sole on my feet. My feet feel secure in this sandal. The one thing that bothers me is the overlap of the leather and buckle around my toes. I am hoping the leather will soften and not rub. I like I can adjust the buckles but the looser buckle does not hold my foot well and my feet slide forward.

Still breaking them in. According to what I've read, it can take a couple of weeks.

I ordered a size 40 regular (with the outlined foot logo) with the traditional footbed. I received a 40 narrow (solid foot logo) with the soft footbed. I did not order the soft footbed because I was trying to avoid that extra plastic. They feel fine though, so I’ll keep them so as not to waste resources returning them for what I ordered. This review is a ding on Zappos only. The shoes are good. I wear an 8.5W (US) or 39 in other shoes and had to size up for these.

Iten arrived broken so I have to return. There was a buckle on the left shoe that was broke. Sizing is a bit off on Birkenstock as I took a 36 as a size 6.

I have a fairly narrow foot and this unfortunately did not work for me. Even though I usually wear this regular size in my other style Birkenstocks the straps did not hold my feet enough in these.

This shoe is labeled as being for a men's 6-6.5 foot. I'm a 6.5, and it's almost too long for me--but close enough that I kept them. Otherwise I'm very happy with the purchase.

lost count the number of Birkenstocks i have owned. always get size 39. never have had a chance to pick narrow or normal width ...this was a new situation. apparently normal ...not narrow but boy are they huge. i will wear them, feel i enjoy more room, instead of having the issue of returning and all that headache. love the color. they will stain your feet with pinkish coloring.
