Customer Reviews Birkenstock Yara

Bought these for my teenage daughter. Needed good walking shoes with a good arch. She was happy with the styling of these compared to most she looked at. She wore for two weeks walking through Italy. Her feet and back felt fine. Birkenstock's don't have the most padding, but they were way better than wearing flats.

I really liked these, but the back of my foot felt wobbly. Plus I decided I wanted slip-ons and didn't want to buckle up every time.

The footbed was immediately comfortable out of the box. But expect some break in time with the straps. They rub at first, but get better with wear.

I adore these sandals. The only problem I had with them was within a month or so of wearing them, the cork sole began to tear. But I would still recommend these to everyone that I know. They are so comfortable, especially for a college student who walks around to all of her classes. I even went hiking in these!

LOVE this sandal and had my eye on it and have been thrilled with it so far. Perfect blend of a stylish sandal with comfort/durability of a Chaco. ;)

I had to return these shoes because the straps that went around the ankle were insanely too long. The holes to do the buckle ended about 1.5" from where I would actually need to fasten the strap. I do have enormous feet, so maybe the designers expected long feet=thick leg? If you have size 10 feet and thin/normal legs, you may have the same problem. Too bad because the style was really cute!

Love the look of these. They are super cute and I am on my feet all day so I needed something that would look cute but still be comfy. I have worn them for about a week now and they are rubbing a bit by my small toe but I think that once I break them in they will be great. Look great with jeans, skirts and dresses. I usually wear a 5.5 or 6 and I ordered a 5/5.5 and although they seem a little big they do fit and are pretty comfortable. Of course Zappos rocked and even tho my small town doesn't normally offer next day service, there were here within less than 24 hrs of ordering.

This is my first pair of Birkenstocks. They are really cute sandals but the leather is very hard and actually hurts my feet across the front strap. It will take a lot of breaking in to soften the leather. The footbed is comfortable however. Once this is broken in, I'm absolutely sure that these sandals will be great and will probably last a very long time. I normally wear a size 6.5 and I ordered a 6.5 but it is just a bit big on me. If I push my toe towards the front so that it fits perfectly through the toe hold portion, there is a lot of room at the heel. I didn't exchange it for a smaller size however, because I was afraid that a smaller size would be too small. When the leather softens a bit more, I think I can adjust the straps tighter for a better fit. I have to say that these sandals are really cute though and have a very cool bohemian look and will be very awesome with boho skirts this Spring/Summer, as well as shorts. It was a good buy. I'm going to give this a 5 star for overall, comfort and style as I think that the longer I wear these sandals the better they will be.

I wear a 7-7.5 and I found this size too big. I was surprised because all reviews say true to size. I'm returning for a size down.

I was concerned that the wrap around ankle strap would not provide a good tight fit. This sandals stayed in place. I am still taking them to shoe maker for extra wholes. The big toe strap wraps around without hurting. I'm a 5 star happy camper walking with this sandals!

They are true to size. First few times the ankle straps were rubbing a little but they have loosen up and now are incredibly comfortable. Love the Habana oiled color, it looks great. I'm sure I'll be wearing this sandals a lot!
