Most comfortable sandal I have ever worn. The soft footbed makes all the difference. I used to have lower back and knee pains on a regular basis. With these shoes, the pain is far more manageable, on some days, nonexistent! Definitely worth the price. I wish I could afford them in multiple colors!

I bought these because I wanted good support in a sandal and something I can wear with almost everything. I normally wear a 8 or 8.5 and bought a 39 narrow because Birkenstock website says that narrow is like a regular width, and regular is like a wide width. The soft foot bed is very comfortable. I have a Morton's Neuroma and am bothered by a lot of shoes, but don't have any problems in these. I might even wear them with socks! J/K.

I've been wearing Birk for 20 years and love them but these are the most uncomfortable I've ever had. After walking in them for 15 minutes, I was bleeding in 3 different spots.

I have come to love Birkenstocks...especially the Soft footbed version. They save my feet from plantar fasciitis las year in Germany and I wear them for every occasion except the most formal now. Love the Granda style ...love them in leather and birkibuc. Prefer the sandals the clogs as clogs are a bit stiff for me. Take my advice and wear Birks even in winter with a nice pair of thick socks!

I have another pair of these that are much older. The straps on these are significantly shorter. I have to have them buckled on the loosest hole where my old ones are on the 2nd and 3rd hole. Otherwise they are typical Birkenstock fit and they've become my #1 shoe this summer!

I currently own 15 pairs of Birkenstock and am ready to buy more in a short time. The price is so very right through Zappos. Zappos makes it so very easy to order and return their products. Have referred many friends and family for various items and once they try Zappos, they are repeat shoppers.

These are wonderful sandals. The sandal bed is soft and comfortable. They fit like a glove as soon as I put them on, I would recommend these.

I love these! They are super cute and more feminine than the Arizonas. The soft footbed is very comfortable out of the box and the oiled leather is pretty soft. I have one spot that is rubbing just a tiny bit, but I think that with a week or so of wear it will be fine. One think I wish would be more clear is that if you have short toes, you need to size down in these (and all Birks) at least one size. I have to actually size down 2 sizes. I wear a 7 in most shoes and have a normal to wide foot with short toes. I need size 36 regular in Birkenstocks, which is supposed to be a 5-5.5. I think it fits more like a 6.5.

Love these shoes! Great color (Habana leather) and very comfortable. The softbed offers less support than regular birks, which I prefer, but still a comfortable and supportive footbed. The leather straps are a bit stiff but are breaking in nicely. I normally wear size 8 regular width in other shoes. I ordered 38 narrow and they fit great. I've been wearing Birks for over 10 years and still love them!

I love these shoes. I have ordered 3 pair. When I went to a garage sale last week a lady approached me and had the same shoes. She said she loved them and her feet were very small and hard to fit. Since I take a size 42, I found this interesting that they are great for small feet and large feet. She had purchased 2 pair. Mary from Duluth

These are some very stylish Birkenstocks! I have several different styles, but this was the first one I purchased in leather. The soft footbed is great, but I had to be very patient breaking them in! The leather is more stiff and was rubbing on my instep, but if you are patient and wear then for short amounts of time in the beginning it will pay off! I usually wear a size 6 shoe and am a size 36 in Birkenstock sizing, and these fit just as great as my other pairs!

I ordered these in narrow and for those with narrow feet that can't usually wear this type of sandal, these are perfect! I am also enjoying the soft footbed. Lots of compliments. As always, Zappos rocks with their overnight shipping!

I tend to wear the basic Birkenstocks most of the time but really liked this more stylish version. As always, they fit great, feel great and look great.

These sandals are awesome. They are so comfortable and the color goes with practically everything. The support is Birkenstock great. I have a wide foot with flat arches and these shoes are perfect. I love this brand and although a little pricey they can always be re-soled making them well worth the investment. They are very sturdy and last for a very long time. I just sent a pair in that I had worn for 6 years before they needed new soles. Recommend them highly.

Love these sandals! The buckle straps give me enough room for my wide foot. The cork soft footbed molds to my feet creating a perfect support to fit my high arch. They are well made and wear very well.

Love these sandals so much that I own multiple pairs. They are very comfortable straight out of the box. I feel like the sizing is tricky and seems to vary between styles of Birks, at least for me. These are comfortable and very attractive shoes for folks with plantar fasciitis. You can easily get many seasons out of one pair.

I love Birkenstocks. They are the only shoe I wear. These are comfy, a little dressier looking than the typical Arizona, and still very comfortable. True to size.

Yet another style that is really suitable for guys to wear. These beat out the original two band sandals as the perforated strap keeps your feet way cooler. They look neater too.

The new size "Narrow" is the same as the old size "Medium" in width so at first I could not tell why the sandals hurt my left foot. The problem is caused by the thickness of the soft which makes the straps too tight on top of my foot. A little longer strap would help. I hope that they will settle to my feet because I love the color and I love Birkenstocks.

This was my first pair of Birkenstock shoes. I find them to be very comfortable and I love the fact that they have arch support and are a true leather. Most comfortable sandal and do not hurt my arch fallen feet.

This was my first time buying Birkenstocks. My wonderful sons gave me a gift certificate for them for my birthday and Mother's Day because I have been wanting to try these shoes but they knew I would never buy them for myself because they are a little pricey. Anyway,I was a little concerned with getting the right fit so I listened to another review and bought them a size smaller and in the narrow width and they are perfect! I love them and highly recommend them.

These are great shoes. I tried on many pairs of Birks, and these were my second favs (favorite is the Tabora). They are comfy, semi-attractive, true to size. I will note that the 'regular' is very wide, and in the footbed, I find my foot points in the opposite direction of the curve of the shoe. In the narrow, the fit is perfect (and I usually order a wide).

I have this style in the traditional footbed also, so I knew that I really liked the look and feel of the upper on my foot. I purchased these due to an unfortunate puppy incident with my original pair. They are pure comfort right out of the box! Like putting on a pair of tennies, only much cuter. I have read that they are 'too soft' for some people, but I think the firmness is is perfect. I love the tobacco color, it will go with just about anything. These shoes are great, I can't wait to wear them all summer long!
