I love Birkenstocks and especially, Zappo's. Talked my husband into a pair of B. sandals but his sandals are about 1/2 size too big for his foot. We'll try to poke another hole in straps to keep them from falling off...

I really like these! The narrow fits me barely and I'm trying to decide if I should just get the regular width. Those don't feel that much wider, but are less snug on my feet. Straps are much more comfortable than the oiled leather.

Something has changed at Birkenstock. I have purchased 8-10 pair of Birkenstocks over the years, always a size 38. Now size 38 is more like a size 39 (8.5-9, not a 7-7.5). Even on the tightest buckle notches the shoes are too loose.

Like an old friend, Birkies are the best. After 20+ years, I ordered another pair of AZ. However, I mistakenly ordered "narrow". Stick with what you know.

It is shameful that Birkenstock has changed the sizing on these shoes, I have worn Birkenstock all my life, I am almost 67, and now have to find other brands!
Size 11 Narrow used to be perfect and now it is totally different, WHY??? Leave things alone that work, fix the things that are broken!!! The band at the toes is so wide that it cuts into the toes and because it runs so wide you have to have it tight...
There are few things that were NORMAL and now the normal is not anymore.

I love these Birks! It's hard to wear anything else after finally getting a pair of these for myself. Comfortable and good looking. My only wish is that there were more colors available. Pink, purple or turquoise would be great!

I have a few pair of birks all size 37. So I ordered these and the length was great but the straps were HUGE even on the tightest hole. So I ordered a 37 narrow and the straps fit great but I lost length and my toes hit the edge. I returned both. Not sure if I’m going to try maybe a 38 narrow??? idk if any size will work since these are unisex.

I have an extra-wide foot that needs the arch support that Birkenstock (unisex) offers me. I also like the colors that this style offers.
Birkenstock with the wide toe box, arch support in the correct place, with colors that I like, fits my needs exactly.

I wanted these to work out but I tried 3 different sizes and no luck. Many people love these but I just couldn’t find a size that was comfortable. I do love Zappos return policy. I almost tried ordering one more size but gave up on these.

Remember when ordering, their narrow width is not super narrow. I consider my foot average to slightly narrow. The medium width is super wide to me. 37 medium and 38 narrow are the same length but the 38n is just not so wide.

I wear a medium and ordered the narrow as suggested. It fit perfectly. I ordered these because I got plantar fasciitis and walking barefoot is a cause. I wear these around the house, and they provide a lot of support and helped immediately.

The new Birkenstocks felt just as comfortable right out of the box as did the 10 year old ones that are now going to be yard shoes.

Because I was unsure how this sandal was supposed to fit and have never worn Birkenstock’s, I returned them. Never have been a fan of their “look” but looking for casual comfort so I thought I would try. Ordered 5/5.5 but should have ordered my regular size, 6.5. Would prefer to go into a store so I could get assistance on properfot.

I bought the grey in narrow. I don't have narrow feet, but I think it is more of a women's fit rather than the medium. 39 fit perfect on my size 8.5B feet. They are very comfortable and I love the style. I have been wearing Birks for more than 30 years on and off. Very stylish for N. County Beach Cities in San Diego.

I have rheumatoid arthritis in my feet & have had multiple foot surgeries. These are the only sandals I can wear. I bought my last pair about 20 years ago but they had seen better days! These do have an arch that is too high for my flat feet but I hammered it down a bit & they are breaking in really well. I also tried the same style in leather & they would have taken too long to break in with my sensitive feet—the suede is soft & comfortable so only need to break in the footbed. I normally wear an 8W & ordered the 38 regular & it fits really well.

I was quite disappointed because these were supposed to be a "soft" footbed model and I had to add Dr. Schol's pads to make them comfortable.

I ordered a size down because I read about the straps being too big. The size down strap fit but the length was too short.

Perfect. I had this same shoe previously and the stories it could tell. I wore them until they are now my gardening shoes. So glad to be able to replace. Love the color, love the comfort and suits my lifestyle of comfort. Birkenstock’s are the best!

My husband has a size 14 foot but since reviews and Zappos stated the 13-13.5 should fit since they run big I ordered them but they were too small. I would say these are true to size because I had the same issue with mine. So buy what you normally wear in flip flops and you should be good. Luckily I was able to return them hassle free bummer part they don’t come in 14’s
