This is my third pair of this particular Birkenstock style. I love the soft footbed as there is little time to break them in as compared to the other footbeds which seem to take me 2 years to break in. I will only buy soft footbeds from now on and I wish they made more styles in them. I do own several other styles of Birki's but in the harder footbed. The straps on these are fairly soft for leather and very comfortable. I like the 3 strap as they look more feminine. In the past I suffered from neuropathy from Lyme and the only shoe that I could wear was the Birkenstock sandal, even in the winter I would wear them with socks. However now I wear them just because I like them and they are an easy everyday sandal.

Soft footbed is a plus to an already great shoe. Birkibuc looks and feels just like leather. Really like the soft brown "mocha" color I got. Birks will always be my go-to summer sandal.

My first pair of Arizonas (in my 20's) were awesome. Now that I am older (60) only the SOFT FOOTBEDS will do for me....and they are fantastic: No Break-in period! They are great right from the box, no kidding!
I had another pair of these in the Black, Birkibuk and wore them out. I ordered them again in the Mocha along with the real leather and these won out because they were softer than the leather and did not rub my toes or bunion. Best all around sandals for every day! Highly recommend.

I recently within the last year discovered my feet love Birkenstocks! So this is my second pair, and I really love the soft footbed. These are super comfy, and I like how high the straps come up on the foot to keep my foot really anchored in there. This style does feel wider than average, which I do need to accommodate my foot issues. The only thing I was disappointed in is that I really liked the look of the leather straps, but they were stiff and dug into the top of my foot. So I bought these with the man-made strap material and they are much softer on the foot. Haven't worn them out and about yet, but I know I won't be disappointed....the same footbed as my current Birks and always comfortable.

After falling in love with a pair of Mayari sandals (that I purchased at a local shoe store), I decided I needed more Birkenstocks in my life. I spent way too much time researching soft footbed v. regular footbed and Florida v. Arizona. I chose the Florida over the Arizona because I felt like they looked a little less clunky than the Arizonas and since the Floridas came with the soft footbed, that decision was made for me. I absolutely LOVE these shoes! They don't have the break-in time that the regular footbed has and feel like walking on clouds. I don't feel them conforming to my feet quite the way the Mayaris do, but that's okay. I like having the 3 straps because they give me an additional layer of customization/security. I have had ligament reconstruction surgery on one of my ankles, and these sandals offer me the comfort and support I need. I highly recommend at least trying these shoes!

So comfortable. Never tried the soft footbed before. It has a bit of cushioning with the support I am used to with regular birks. Would buy again.

This shoe at first felt funny on my foot but then as I started to walk around I realized that there was actually some good arch support. It took me a little to get use to the way your toes grab onto the shoe. I might have bought a size to large because it seems like a trip a little. They feel better now.

I would've preferred a narrow Birk, but these work fine on the last hole/buckle. They seem to fit fine/snug; I was worried the width would be a dealbreaker. I'm keeping these!

These Birks aren't as bulky looking as some others, which is why I ordered them. I did have to exchange them for a bigger size though. The regular width in these is much narrower than the Arizona for example. The Birkibuc looks and feels like real nubuck leather. They're very comfy and don't take long to break in. Highly recommend.

I love these sandals. The only negative was they gave me a blister by one of the straps, fine now that I have worn them in.

True to Birkenstock comfort and durability. I wear these a lot in the summer, but they’re also my year-round shoes to bang around the house in.

I bought these after I returned the Arizona style. I owned Floridas years ago and decided to go with them again after wearing Keen Bali sandals (which I still love but the new ones now don't fit as well as the older ones!). The Floridas are great! Love the style. Still kind of dainty even though they are a Birk. I am a 7.5 and the 38's fit great. I wish they made these in nubuck suede but this synthetic material will probably hold up better. I'm not sure if they make a lighter color. This one is like a cocoa color. Soft footbed is wonderful!

I've worn size 38 Florida Birkenstocks for over 20 years and for some reason these 38s I ordered are too small. I'm not sure if Birkenstock has adjusted their sizing... because I am an 8.5 so technically a 39 should fit me better but those have always been too large in the past. Zappos is sold out of the 39s but I will have to try those when they are back in stock.
