These run extremely large. I would say order at least 1½ sizes smaller than you usually wear. Other than that, they are great.

I read a lot of reviews online before buying as it's been years since I've gotten Birks - typically am a heels gal, but being pregnant again with back hurting when I'm barefoot around the house/running errands and wanting to keep my feet for heels for work, I got these. Keep in mind with sizes that they will look too big on your feet. Took me a while to remember that & you need to put them on & bend up so you are on your toes - your toes should not touch the end or they are too small. So, yes, they make your feet look huge but they will be comfortable at the get-go if you get the right size. The patent wasn't as cute & feminine as I was hoping, but again, I wear 4 in heels regularly. But these meet my needs & are comfy, but know they're Birks - comfy, supportive but not something you're going to feel super feminine & small-footed in.

I haven't owned a pair of Birkenstock's since my days as a college undergrad, but walking the streets of NYC necessitated that I reconsider. This style and color is more subtle, less hippie/granola and goes well with a lot of clothes. I can even where them as a summer sandal to work rather than just using them to walk to the office before quickly changing into other, less walking friendly shoes. Definitely give these a go if you're in need of a comfortable walking shoe that's a little more chic than a sneaker to get your around the mean city streets quickly.

Nothing new here, folks. This is the same terrific Birk we all love, especially if you are after a good, solid arch support. I was a little disappointed in the silver color. It's more of a metal silver instead of a shiny silver.

Great all purpose sandal. Comfortable. Fits well. Doesn't slip off feet. Good support.

I have to admit I was expecting more from this shoe, especially when it came to comfort. It actually makes my feet ache a little when I wear them - I'm hoping this will improve with wear. Also, not sure if it's the shoe or my foot (although I don't have this problem with other shoes), but when I walk they "fart", or at least make a similar sort of noise.

Ordered these sandals due to a recommendation from a family member. I should have followed the suggestions of others and ordered a size smaller as these run big. I also have little feet so the wide straps look bulky on me. They are comfortable, and I can tell even with the wrong size. I don't think I will order these again because they just look to big and clunky for me. I also would like something a little more youthful. The color just didn't do anything for me. I will be returning these and will try a Keen sandal instead.

Golden Brown is much golden than brown. It's almost bronze. Fit was a bit larger than expected too.

I loved these shoes online, and I love Birkenstocks in general, but unfortunately due to the strap arrangement on these shoes, the size seemed a little bigger than the 5 pairs of Birks I have already. The color was also lighter than pictured and kind of pearlescent. I was hoping for a darker, matte pink to match my clothes. I can see these being great for others though.

I love the look of a Birk, but the arch support was WAY TOO hard (felt would hurt my feet before could ever break it in) and too much arch support for my foot....which may be good for others

I’ve only had a few days. I’m not 100% on them. Very cute with modest support but I feel like they need to be broken in? But does “fake “ let you even do that? I also had to go a whole size down and now feels a tiny bit small. Birks have got to start doing true half sizes!

Too stiff, and the footbed was too hard. Love the looks of this sandal, but it's not for me.

Bought a pair of these for my daughter a year ago this month and the strap has already broken, but because I don't have the receipt, I have no recourse, ahhh...for the old days when you could just bring them in to be fixed without cost, they are missed.

Ii loved this shoe but it is made for people with short toes. My toes hit the front lip of the shoe . Ordered a larger size, but same problem. Even after adjusting the straps the toe loop is too far forward on the shoe. Would be great for those with short toes, but mine are not. Disappointed that I had to return them twice.

The Birkenstock Mayari sandals were too wide. The footbed felt hard and uncomfortable. Overall, these shoes are not as comfortable as expected and were too wide, even with the adjustable strap.

These were super cute but I guess I have a chubby big toe so they were just not comfortable - isn't that the whole point of getting Birkenstocks, right? These will get returned for a different style... not sure which ones yet though.

I just don't find Birkenstock to be comfortable. Perhaps they need to be broken in? The sole is so hard and inflexible. This is a pretty cute model though.
