I wear womens 7.5 in shoes and the size 37 is perfect for my feet! I had originally ordered a 38 as the size chart recommended it but they were too big. These are perfect!

I purchased my first pair of Birkenstocks and I really love them: Arizona softbed in suede, 41 regular width. My foot size is 10.5 but I can go as high as 11.5 with my athletic sneakers. I overpronate and have a mid size bunion on my right foot. Finding shoes that work for me has been difficult. The Birkies were comfortable right out of the box and fit perfectly with thicker socks. I use them for slippers inside only. They work without socks but feel just a little big. I'll be trying a 41 narrow for the summer.
As always Zappos CS is outstanding.

Pretty awesome shoes -- I've wanted a pair for a long time -- but consider sizing up half to full sizes.

These are my favorite birks. This is my third paid and the soft footbed is the way to go. I wore my last pair out and these are replacing them.

I bought this male version as the female versions available did not come in wide width. I felt a little wider so had to pull the buckle strap all the way in. While it had the soft food bed, I was dealing with a sprained ankle and so the first month of wear was uncomfortable until they were broken in. I held off my review until the shoe was fully tested. Now! it is my go to shoe. Very comfortable and stable for my problem ankle. Not the cutest shoe, but definitely worth the investment.

Gray sided was darker than it looked in the picture. It is definitely unisex. Seems like the “cute” colors are only available in the narrow width. I have a wide foot and need the wider shoe, so am stuck with “manly”colors.
I'd also recommend:
Most other brands only pretend to have arch support.

Love this style. Although I graded it as moderate arch support for myself, it has much better support than other “summer wear shoes”. Truly enjoyed them that I needed to get them in black!

Normally a size 7.5 US, ordered size 37 and they fit PERFECTLY. No break-in period, super soft suede and comfy footbed. Taupe color is also really nice, goes with everything, slightly more feminine and cute. I wear these every day now.

Took on-line advice here to go one size down. Big mistake! Length is marginally okay. Width is significantly tighter. Recommend you order your usual size and then adjust if necessary. Very disappointing since these shoes have such a good reputation for comfort.

Too bad these shoes were too wide. I ordered the narrow, had them buckled on the last hole, and still my feet were swimming in them.

I was skeptical about Birkenstocks. I wanted to try them in person in the store before ordering, and perhaps I should have, but these sandals are amazing. The suede is super soft, so soft that the straps are very flexible and it makes it hard to slide your foot in underneath the fallen straps. They do not stand up on their own like in the picture. I have never had a pair of shoes or sandals that have such high arch support and it took me a good long while to get used to it and break in the shoes. They are becoming much more comfortable over time. I'm looking forward to owning and wearing these for years to come.

Bought these at a size 43 which to me is a true medium. I usually wear a size 10.5 in other shoes so a size 43 in Birkenstocks were perfect. I wore these non-stop as soon as I got them and they were immediately comfortable. After about 8-10 months they will start to show some signs of wear and tear. The arch support and sole of the show becomes worn out. However, they are definitely worth the money for that first year at the rate I was wearing them. Still have them and just tightened them up a little bit and they still look good. Have had these for awhile and will be getting a new pair once spring comes around! Always through Zappos because they always deliver exactly what you order and with great speed and quality.
