Too big. I do not consider my self to have a narrow size foot so I ordered the normal size. Way too wide. Go with a narrow fit.

My foot is pretty wide so I went with the wider fit. I hate these sandals and I wish I never purchased them because they give me blisters. I thought they would be super comfortable, but I’ll never purchase them again.

I have a pair of nubuck tan pair of Arizona’s and I liked how deep the black looked in the suede so I purchased those over the leather. One thing I did notice is that after a couple of wears, the straps stretch out and I have them on the last notch now and my feet flop around in them. I still find them very comfortable. I would just size down if you can. I did already based on the pair I had before because I think they run wide already and I have wide feet.

I wear a six, and it said order true to size, which would've been the 37, according to the chart, but having made this mistake ordering these in the past for my daughter, who also wears a six. I ordered the size 35, and it is perfect. It says this is for regualr size 4-4.5, but fits exactly like a 6 should fit, the 37 was way to big

Unfortunately, this was not the shoe I was expecting based on past purchases of many years.. This shoe was not a charcoal Gray suede. If it was suede, it was a very short nap. The color leaned to Gray with green tones in it. I was very disappointed. I've worn Birkenstocks for at least 20 years. First pair I've ever returned!

I don't know why it took me so long to buy a pair of Birkenstocks but I'm so glad I finally did. They are incredibly comfortable.

I have always wanted to buy a pair of Birkenstock’s after reading so many reviews of how comfortable they are. I guess I just have a sensitive step because these were so uncomfortable, even for being the soft footbed style. They’re absolutely cute on, but even wearing them around the house for an hour I couldn’t do it. They also run very big. I got my normal size (39) and had to exchange twice for an 8.5 and then 8 for them to fit. The footbed is long and the straps were so loose even on the tightest hole.

I bought these instead of the regular ones because "soft footbed" sounded lovely. Well! Be aware that the arch support (if you really need it) is mostly NON-exisitant in these! I even called Birkenstock to confirm this and they said, "Yes, there is less in that style." So! I'm sending these back for a regular footbed.

I think I was sent a mislabeled pair...I ordered two in the same size and have worn Birks for years and years. These are impossibly wide and not comfortable to walk in. Disappointed because I slipped them on, having worn this size in Birks forever, and realized they just slide right off. I'll have to see if I can get more holes punched in the straps to better adjust.

LOVE my Birkenstock’s! I started wearing them 20 years ago (& continued even when it wasn’t “cool”). Now I’m back in style. :) GREAT sandals. Worth every penny. Bought a second pair two weeks later lol FYI This style IS wide. Perfect for my “Fred Flintstone” feet though. Haha

Love the soft suede straps. Super comfortable. They feel a little bit big and loose. I may punch one more hole to tighten the straps a little more. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase.

These are my first softbed birkies and I love them, all the same as others just a little softer. The black suede is a rich black.

I'm a regular wearer of Birks. The softbed was new to me. Fit awesome straight out of the box.

This is a replacement pair of Birkenstock Arizona Soft Footbed suede sandals. I retired my last pair after more than 8 years of steady wear. I thrilled I have a style and brand that's perfect for me.

I originally ordered the suede option but returned because they were too loose. These leather Birks are perfect fit and so comfortable!

This is my first try of the soft footbed and I don't think i like it. It is not as comfortable for my heel as compared to the numerous Birkenstock pairs i have with the regular footbeds. It is more cushiony, but the heel well is deeper and the sides of it are not cushioned, so this creates unpleasant pressure on the sides of my heel, a problem i do not have with the regular footbed. This was also my first try of the Arizona. Have to say i find them to be heavier than other Birks that I have. Maybe it's the large buckles that add weight, or maybe the soft footbed? Not sure, but i will give the regular Arizona a try if i can find the similar taupe or grey color and see how that goes.
