Fantastic! Just make sure to order 1 size down. I wear a women’s size 8 in everything but I always have to order my Birkenstocks in the size 38 (size 7) and they fit perfect

Love the Mayari style! I literally have this style in 4 colors because they are so comfortable and cute. I have one pair of the Arizona style and don’t think they are as comfortable as the Mayari. Highly recommend

I like these a lot, but they don't fit and I need a half size. I'm a 7.5/8 and the 38 was too small, I know a 39 is too big. I purchased the narrow and it fit my narrow foot perfectly, just need a smidge more in the length.

I love these shoes. They have the traditional Birkenstock footbed, so once I have broken them in, they are the most comfortable shoes I own. And, they are more feminine than many other Birkenstock styles. This was my first pair of Birkenstocks that was not leather or suede, but they have been fine so far.

Don’t give up if they don’t feel super comfortable right out of the box. Google “breaking in your birks” and you’ll get tons of tips. It takes a few weeks of wearing them for the cork to mold to your feet, and for the leather to soften. If you stick it out, you’ll be rewarded with a shoe that will last you for years, with great support and comfort like none other!

Okay, so, the Mayari is now my favorite Birkenstock style, hands down. They fit my feet like a glove right out of the box, and I don't think a day has passed since they arrived that I haven't worn them at least part of the day. The fit is comfortable and much more secure-feeling (like a perfectly fit glove, as I said) than the other two Birk styles I have, which are "fine," but just don't stand out in terms of comfort the way these do. My foot slides back and forth more in the Arizona, and the Gizeh style, though I think it's a bit cuter than the Mayari style, isn't nearly as supportive and secure. Love it! I've developed chronic foot pain in the last year due to a bunion and achilles tendinitis, and I'm not kidding when I say that wearing the Mayari's seriously lets me forget all that. My feet feel normal and healthy again (when I'm wearing the shoes)! Super cool! Thank you so much, Birkenstock and Zappos!

These are the most comfortable and cute sandals! I own two pairs and will continue to buy. Last forever with hard wear. Did 40+ miles at Disney in a week and my feet never hurt once.

i love the more feminine style of the thinner straps. Birkenstocks are always incredibly comfy, and the same goes for these, but i don’t recommend wearing these for a full day if you have arch problems.

After trying 3 styles of Birkenstocks, the Mayari fits great! I really like the style to go with casual skirts and shorts. My first choice was to have leather straps, but the color I wanted and size I needed was only available in the mocha birkibuc. I am a little concerned that the straps will hold up as well as leather, but for the summer, the comfort and coolness of the synthetic will work great.
I have a narrow to medium width foot, but the unisex narrow and women's regular widths were too big in the toes, and my toes did not sit in the footbed correctly. These were one of the only Birkenstock women's styles I could find available in medium and narrow widths. I would definitely recommend them for narrow feet that don't seem to be working with the other styles.
I am not ready for a true "comfort" sandal, but had some neck pain this year and need to start thinking about wearing more supportive footwear. I am so excited that Birkenstocks are popular again and that I finally found a pair that works!!

I've been wearing Birkenstocks for over 40 years, and these are my favorites! I love the style and the way they fit my feet. Super cute and comfortable! I wear them to work, on walks and in the house...because I don't like to take them off! The Tabacco finish goes with everything!

Fits the same as all my Birks, about a size smaller (but in line with all other Birks). Love the style, and as always so comfortable!

First pair of Birkenstock for our daughter & she loves them. True to size for her. Good support for her severely broken ankle.

Where have these shoes been my whole life! Love, love, love. I will not take them off until the snow flies! I have horrible, painful bunions. And my toes have become out of alignment, putting pressure on other toes and joints. These shoes hold that big toe over, without the SIZE of the normal thong size sandal. OMG, I am so relieved and comfortable. Then the material you do not have to break in. HEAVEN.

I have a long narrow foot, and find these Birks have excellent support and stability for action wear. Have numerous pairs of Mayaris, have had a couple pairs repaired at the local Birk's shoe hospital, due to continuous heavy wear, as I use them for exercise walking/jogging, and as golf shoes-- and have for years.
I am concerned about the announcement of the "narrow-regular" fitting both--it doesn't, just means that if this is what Birkenstock is going to I won't be able to wear them. Not good news for anyone with a non-average size foot.
Wishing that you had more colors, reds, blues; I bought the mocha color to try dyeing them red. It wasn't difficult, they are not bright red, but definitely a reddish brown. I will see how it works over time. It would be way easier if you just made colors in real Birks, and not the plastic, or near-Birks as they do not have the quality and fit of the real thing.

Love these! I am a ‘narrow’ 40 in my two Arizona birko-flor. I originally ordered a 40 in this Mayari, they were too big and so I exchanged them for a 39 and they fit perfectly.

They weren’t comfortable at first but after I wore them a few times the felt a lot better. After a couple of weeks of wear they are extremely comfortable and I can walk for hours without my feet hurting.
