Customer Reviews Birkenstock Yara

Great sandals!

I followed the size recommendations from other reviewers when purchasing these sandals. I normally wear an EU size 39 (US 8-8.5) in Birkenstock, but purchased an EU 38 (7-7.5) and they fit perfect! I love these sandals, they're very cute and comfy!!! Thanks for the great service Zappos!

Bought as a gift. My daughter loves them. Wears them all the time. They hold up great and seem like they'll last a long time. Will purchase more.

Super stylish and extremely comfortable, however, the black color I ordered is NOT black! So I'm going to say they're grey and go with it. For reference, I have been wearing Birkenstocks faithfully since 1992, I wear a size 7 in US and 37 in European so these fit me perfectly, as do all my other pairs of Birks. I have average feet (not narrow or wide) so they feel true to my size in this brand.

I love these sandals, my first pair of Birkenstock’s and they go with everything.

I absolutely loved this shoe

Super cute! Haven’t had a pair of Birks since high school. Needed a classy walking sandal for work. Even cute with pants. True to size. 9 1/2=40. I did move the adjustable toe strap over the fixed strap to loosen the toe up a bit. Win win xo

My 3rd pair of Birkenstocks!! I usually qear an 8.5 in all shoes, but in Birks that's a 39. I needed a 38 in all 3 pairs!

The arch support seems less than traditional Birks, but they are a fun version of the German sandal.

I typically wear a size 37 but took a chance and ordered a size 36 and glad I did. The fit is perfect, love the look and feel. I will keep them. Minor issue, the pictures show the toe strap buckles as far as the second hole on the strap. The left shoe toe strap reaches the second hole but the right shoe toe strap will only go to the first hole. If I try to move it to the second hole it’s very tight and feels uncomfortable. Maybe over time the strap will loosen up, but it kind of bothers the OCD in me.

Perfect fit all around! Cute and stylish, looks good with many styles!

Would have kept these if I could slip them on without buckling every time- what a pain.

I had originally ordered a size 39 regular since I wear 8.5 W. They felt like they were 1 size to big so I exchanged it for a size 38 regular and it was a perfect fit. Cute sandles and very comfortable.

I first ordered a size 39 because I wear 8-8 1/2 normally. The 39s were a little longer in the toe area and heel so I decided to replace them with a size 38 and I'm so glad I did. The 38s fit perfectly and i loved them so much I ordered a black pair too. They are awesome! Straps are long enough...leather feels a little stiff right now (does not hurt) but I know they will soften in time.

This is my second pair of these shoes and I love them! comfortable and able to walk a lot in them. strap seems to help so you don’t have to use your toes to keep them on. I do think you should size down of between sizes.

As a Birk wearer most of my life, i have to say the ankle strap is a very nice addition to the already awesome Birkenstock. Zappos- i thank you for your prompt and professional service!

I love my new Yaras! I love the regular footbed as they support my flat feet. I’m able to walk a lot without pain. I used to have bunion and heel pain but not anymore. I got the Habana and I love the deep, rich brown color. The straps fit nicely and helps anchor my feet for easier walking. it looks cute and stylish also!

I liked these shoes but the ankle strap was too tight! I do have fat ankles but generally don’t have this problem with other sandals

Be specific about your likes and dislikes. How was the fit and size? What does the material feel like? How awesome (or not) do you feel wearing them?

These are great shoes. I don’t think Birks are cute at all, but I still wore them for comfort. But as far as cute- these ones are! And they’re just as comfortable as the less fashionable styles. As for people saying size down...I don’t agree at all. I guess it depends on how you like the fit, but even with that being said, these fit the same way as my other ones. I listened to the reviews and sized down when I first ordered these years ago, and it was a huge mistake. My toes were right up on the edge and it rubbed on the bottom of them when I walked. Awful. My normal size was perfect. I say order your normal size.

These are super cute and comfortable. I was worried the ankle strap would rub, but it is soft and feels fine. I had no trouble with the strap being to tight. As other reviewers mentioned, these run a full size big. I have many pairs of Birks, all size 38. I had to send these back for a 37. Can't wait for summer to wear these!

Birks are the best! Arch support is superb and feet melt into sandals over time.

These are by far my favorite Birkenstock shoes. The Yara sandals are cute, stylish, and feel amazing on my feet. For reference, I wear a size 6.5 - 7 medium width shoe in women's. My size in Birkenstocks is 37 narrow (most of the shoes are very wide), but in the Yara sandals I wear a regular 37 and the fit is great. (Does this mean the shoe width is smaller than other Birkenstocks? I would say yes. Sidebar when I ordered these the shoes were not available in narrow, and I'm not sure if they come in narrow width. Personally, I love these shoes and think they fit great. The strap size is also perfect for me (I wear them on the tightest hole).

The best so worth it
