Customer Reviews Birkenstock Yara

I love these sandals. Super stylish. They do run big so I recommend getting 1 size smaller then what you normally wear. I get lots of compliments on these. They are well made.

Sexy Birks? Who'da thunk it? But these Birkenstock sandals, with their encircling ankle straps are kinda sorta sexy! That part aside, I do find them just as comfortable, reliable, and sturdy as my Birks in the more traditional, clunky styles. Wearing the Yara, I feel less like a hippie, and more like a bohemian. I guess it's semantics, but the bottom line is that these sandals have a je ne sais quoi that most Birkenstocks just don't possess. Feeling good right out of the box. Highly recommend.

I absolutely loved these sandals! I was so excited to get them in, but then I tried them on...the ankle strap I was so excited about wasn't long enough to fit around my ankle. Unfortunately I had to return the shoes I was so excited about!

I like this shoe. A little less arch support than their other sandals but I like that because sometimes the extreme arch support hurts my feet.

I liked the look of thiese sandals but the strap just felt weird on my ankle and when I took steps it would flop. Ended up returning.

Really cute and very comfortable, as always Zappos made getting a different size so easy, had new size the next day...

These were on my daughter's birthday wish list. She researched the reviews and found that they run large so she asked for a size smaller. The sandals arrived quickly from Zappos. my daughter loves the fit and the look. I think they are very cute! Ad of course, Zappos has items when other places don't and the no cost shipping is such a plus. Another positive shopping experience.

So far these are not the most comfortable, but hopefully I will break them in more. Also, they make my large, wide feet look quite large!

Wore these almost every day in the summer! Cute Sandal with good support for weak ankles, etc where I need a firm heal while staying cool. Got lots of compliments. Go good with casual or dressy. Planning on wearing them again this summer!

They run big. I ordered a half size down and they were still too big. But they look great. I had a pair of Birks when I was younger and they were incredibly comfortable since they mold to my foot, they're wider AND they have arch support (very important). I'm exchanging them for a full size down =)

Love this style of sandals. I went with my usual Birkenstock Size, which is a 38. I may have to purchase another pair for when these ones get worn out because I've worn them almost everyday.

These sandals are excellent. I love the size and fit. They feel very sturdy and stay on well with no sliding around. They gave me blisters the first several times I've worn them, but I expect that they will soon be broken in and fit beautifully. Overall an excellent purchase.

I absolutely love everything Birkenstock. I would've kept the shoes if the ankle strap had been longer. Very cute shoe.

I love mine! I got them in Germany a year or so before the us sold them. I punched a new hole in the ankle strap to make it a custom fit and that made them perfect. if you don't like having to buckle in a shoe then these aren't for you. they are not slip on sandals, obviously. cutest style of birks yet in my opinion!

LOVE THESE!! So comfortable and wear well with anything.

I ordered the last pair in my size. I was thrilled to find the Yara in Habana leather. Especially since the leather has been discontinued in this model. They arrived in a bag. NO Birkenstock box. I was SO disappointed. The first rule of buying Birkenstocks is to make sure they come in a Birkenstock box. Otherwise, how can it be verified that they are authentic? I even wrote a blog about spotting fake birks. Check it out at ilovebirkenstocks.com Zappos, it is not ok to send out a pair of Birkenstocks in a baggie.

Love the style and super comfortable... I just don't recommend hilly treks.

Love, Love, Love this shoe. Normally I wear 12N, however, the 42M fit me just fine. I have fat ankles, and the ankle strap helps hide some of he thickness. Which it came in 43N

Love this style, and love how comfortable it is. Birkenstock in general makes great footwear; this is my third pair. Super versatile and fully adjustable.

Love, love, love these! I debated on getting my first pair of Birkenstock since February, and finally did it this month, and I wish I had done it sooner! I can not wear these enough. I have a really high arch and have fought foot problems for the last few years. These shoes are great all day on my feet. Fun to wear with dresses or jeans. I wish they made them in Bronze too. I got the patent black and they rock! I will now be a loyal Birkenstock customer.

These look very cute on and are almost as comfortable as the other Birks I own. The arch support is fantastic and the adjustability of BOTH straps is very helpful. I'd recommend these, but with the small caveat that the ankle strap does not stabilize the foot. The ankle strap keeps my foot somewhat stable, but my heel goes up and down, similar to a flip flop but not quite as pronounced. This means that rocks and other debris can get between my foot and the shoe more easily. This is NOT by any means a deal-breaker. Also, I purchased these because I have foot issues and cannot wear flip flops, and I will be keeping them, but likely will stick with the Birkenstock Milano for long distances.

Very cute shoe! Definitely runs big. I ordered 1 whole size smaller than what I normally wear based on other reviewer's comments.
