Customer Reviews Birkenstock Boston Soft Footbed - Suede

I love love Birkenstock’s but, this pair looked as if they had been stored in a garage for months. The color was faded and the box appeared trashed. Shame on eZappos for selling these.

I have the Boston Soft Footbed in three colors. They are the shoes I wear most of the time. The Boston keeps my knees in line and my hips do not hurt as much. Perfect day to day comfort here in the cooler days.

Love them! I have been wearing Birkenstocks for over 10 years. This time I ordered the soft footbed, very nice. They maybe aren’t the height of fashion, but if you don’t like sore feet, try these out! When it says indigo, it means indigo, they look a little more navy in the picture than they do when you get them. They work great with jeans!

The color of these clogs are way, way off the monitor picture on my computer. The color description is more correct. Antique indigo is about right, as in indigo so old it has leaned into the violet part of the spectrum. In other words, these shoes are purple. Deep purple. Judging by the photo on my monitor I was expecting a somewhat faded blue denim type of thing but that is not even close. There is no "antique" feature about these shoes, I thought they might look faux-distressed, but no. Perfectly clean, even color, no mars, or scratches, but purple nonetheless. Comfy as always for Birkenstock classic footbed. (I wish all styles were classic footbed.) So I am keeping these but they won't get the everyday wear that I thought they would if the color had been more compatible with my wardrobe.

This is my second color in the Boston Soft Footbed clog. The support is excellent and the narrow works very well for me. I usually wear them with socks, but if I tighten the strap, I can wear them without socks. Love the comfort, and arch support this closed toe clog gives me.

Thick awesome leather, cork soles hold warmth, BEAUTIFUL color. I really didn’t know if I would wear a different color than brown or black and wow have I enjoyed these; they are so much fun. And, in my opinion, the purple/blue color is very hip without being flamboyant. I wear wide and narrow quite comfortably in these clogs.

Though I haven't won them out of the house yet, they look amazing and fit comfortably.

Ordered my usual Birkenstock (and other Euro brands) 37 but ended up returning for a 38 that fit well. I think the difference is the open toe sandals in 37 feels okay when my foot is all the way forward- still room in the heel. In the Boston closed toe, my foot couldn't be more forward without feeling jammed in, or my heel was just off the back edge. Width was fine- I am comfortable in typical and narrow widths. Pleased with comfort right out of the box. Item appearance as described and shown in examples. Rich, dark, navy blue. I see no hint of purple. Pet hair can stick to the suede. Dark pet hair probably won't show on the dark uppers.

I really like this style but the upper felt too big and the shoe felt a little too floppy even when the buckle was tightened all the way. Sadly I returned them.

True to size. Narrow fit is nice. Suede is thin and very brushed. Buckle is plastic. Quality feels low for price and brand.

After taking one step the instep folds over and you are walking on a super uncomfortable folded over piece of suede, no matter how tight or loose the shoe is set.

I wanted to keep these. They are so beautiful. But my foot is way too narrow for them. Even at the tightest hole for buckle. I can get a thick pair of hiking socks and wear them ok, but I want to be able to wear them with no socks or average weight sock. I’m bummed. The shoe is great! It’s a problem with my feet I had my entire life.

I bought these mostly to wear around the house instead of slippers. They are cute and functional- love them!

This is the first pair of non-sandal Birks. Needed something a little warmer. Not a lot of options in narrow which is how I ended up with them. Soles feel just like the sandals

The color is really nice, dark navy blue. I’m between 7.5 - 8W and the EU size 39 Narrow fit perfect. My feet are on the narrow side so I had no issues with the narrow width even with a pair of winter socks.

I have tried mocha, taupe and mink. For some reason, midnight is more narrow than the other 3 colors I have tried. I have a narrow foot so midnight will work better when I want to wear without socks. I wouldn't be able to wear the others without socks--even when I have as tight as it will go

These are perfect for fall. I bought the narrow and it hugs my almost wide feet nicely and keeps these clogs from moving around when I am walking. I love the sandals but have never worn the shoes successfully until this try.

This is the first time I have bought the Birkenstock soft foot bed. I have about 20 pairs of Birkenstock shoes. I love this soft foot bed. There is no breaking in at all! I live in my Granada Birkenstock sandals. However, walking around the house and outside in the winter is not warm enough for me with sandals and socks so I bought these clogs. I plan to get another pair in the future. Hey guys, don't hesitate at all. I absolutely love these clogs.

I like good shoes, but I'm definitely not a shoe person. I would much rather be barefoot and I keep shoe purchases to a minimum. That said, whenever I put these shoes on, I feel like I am wrapping my feet in love, and I have worn them even when I could be barefoot. The footbed goes beyond having perfect arch support; it's also shaped in other ways that I can't describe other than being exactly what my foot would have designed if it were capable. I don't know if they could possibly feel any better. I'm not sure every indigo is this purple; I expected it to lean toward blue more, but it is a fun color. In addition, it isn't a dainty, stylish shoe; it's a wide clog. Like other Birkenstocks, I found these to be wide, but the bonus is the strap, which can be tightened. If you don't mind those, then buy these shoes. They're worth every penny!

So soft! The suede is gorgeous, so low-key chic. Great arch support as always.

Ordered first in regular, but narrow was a better fit. Returned the white, kept the black.

Shoe looks and wears great

i wish they did these colors in hard footbed buy the protection spray! even droplets of water will stain this color color is beautiful

Great but Not the AZ
