Customer Reviews Birkenstock Arizona Soft Footbed - Suede (Unisex)

I've ordered Birkenstock's for years and years. I love them. Great fit and Zappos is the perfect place to order them. I wear them year round, living in So. CA.

These are awesome. This brand is usually hard on the bottom of my feet. With the soft sole and suede, I'll have these forever. I wear size 7 and they were to loose. They would have stretched out in a short time so I had to return my narrow size 38 (easy, thanks Zappos) for a size 37 narrow and they fit perfectly. I recommend these 100%!

These ran quite large. I have never purchased before so I purchased the shoe size I normally wear. They were huge. I purchased a pair for my daughter who is 1 and a half sizes smaller and hers were perfect. Hope this helps.

I have very wide feet and always wear a European size 40 or a US 9 and I always buy wide widths if I can find them. With these, I tried my usual size, 9 wide, but they were huge. I returned them for a 8 narrow and they fit perfectly, with buckles in the tightest holes. I have a high instep but the arches in these are a little uncomfortable which I was able to mitigate by using a clear gel insole. My only complaint is the black suede dye transfers onto my skin so my feet look dirty after wearing.

To my boyfriend's dismay, I've been wearing the original Birk forever. And the only thing better is the original Birk with a Soft Footbed! No break-in time, super comfy out of the box. Curious to see how they wear compared to the originals, but loving them now. And as always - love the fabulous Zappos service! A win-win.

Got exactly what I ordered. I have a really narrow foot and high arch, and they fit great so far. I have developed one blister on the inside of my left foot that seems to be part of the "breaking in" process. Other than that, they are great.

These are extremely comfortable. My first pair of Birk's and definitely not my last. I was able to try these on in the store but only Zappos had them in my size and color. Definitely order the narrow if your a regular width. I generally wear a size 8 regular but ordered the 7 narrow and they fit like the Women's version in the store. Thanks Zappos you guys are amazing!

I absolutely love these shoes! I have had my left knee replaced and my right knee has been replaced twice, so support and proper alignment are very important to me. I used to love my 3" heels, but they have all been donated to the Goodwill. Comfort is important to me and these soft footbed Arizona sandals fit the bill. I have them in black, gray and pink. They look good with socks or without. These are the perfect airport shoes, because you can slip them off, walk through security with your socks on and then toss the socks in your bag. I have many Birkie sandals, some with soft footbed and others with the old traditional footbed. They are all comfortable and supportive, but the soft footbed is a real treat, albeit a bit more expensive.

Love these shoes. They of course are not very pretty but sure do meet all the needs I have for a comfortable shoe. Love them!

Not only do these sandals look awesome, they have great arch support. I wear custom orthotics due to my plantar fasciitis and low arches. I took a chance with the Birkenstock Arizona Soft Footbed and it paid off! Got tired of buying imitation Birkenstocks each year which only lasted a year. These sandals look great with either Jeans or Cargo shorts!

The Birkenstock Arizona is my favorite comfort shoe of all times next to my running sneakers! I have weak arches, so I have to wear a shoe with good arch support. Love that they have come fashion forward this year! As many reviewers have said, this shoe is great.

Thes are my second pair of Birkenstocks and they are the best shoes I have ever purchased. I will only ever buy the soft footbed because they are so comfortable. They are pricy but they are worth every penny, I absolutely love my Birkenstocks and zappos like always was quick and efficient.

I caved and finally jumped on the Birkenstock band wagon. My feet are happy I did not wait any longer. Right out of the box these were super comfortable. I took them on vacation and wore them constantly without any problems. I am happy I purchased the soft footbed since it adds some extra cushioning. They look great with jeans or shorts.

Not only am I extremely satisfied with the sandals that I purchased, but the service and speed that my needs were taken care of was the best ever. I would not even consider shopping somewhere else.

My old Birkenstocks lasted for years, and I hope these will as well. They take some getting used to, as I have low arches, but I know from experience that they will feel great before long.

I absolutely love these shoes! My second pair of Birkenstocks! They are the most comfortable and sturdy pair of sandles I've ever owned! They do run bigger, I normally wear a women's size 8 but have to get 37 (6-6 1/2) for fit in Birks.

I love Birks but can only wear certain styles that don't bother my bunions, corns or whatever. The Arizona has always been a favorite...I return to the style every time! I also have a high arch and metatarsal problems so I need support. I used to buy the hard footbed but at 70, I find I can't break them in so the soft footbed is wonderful!

I've been wearing Birkenstock sandals for more than 3 decades. They're the BEST! The Zappos website offered a pair for only $80 (they list for $130 -- worth the price, but why not save $50?). I received them in just 4 days, and they fit perfectly! I'm very happy with them!!!

This is my second pair of the Arizona Soft Footbed. I've been wearing the original Arizona for decades. The Soft Footbed does provide more comfort, though I have found that after a few months of wear there really isn't much of a difference, particularly if you wear them with socks. Still, for arch support they seem to provide even more support that the regular foot bed. If you are a first time Birkenstock customer, I would think that the Soft Footbed would be a good choice as it requires absolutely no adjustment period at all. Arizonas are the single most comfortable shoe.The "Regular" width is really a wide (I generally wear a double wide, but even with my foot I can wear a Narrow in this shoe. If you have never worn an Arizona, you don't know what you are missing!

I got these for my boyfriend. All he wears in Birkenstocks...even in the winter! He loves them. The soft sole is comfortable.

Shoe is lovely....my feet are not. The size down was a bit short, and these feel a little long. I also had to put shoe on tightest notch and almost felt I needed to punch another hole to be comfortable without a sock on. Makes me very sad to have to send these back.

I bought this for shoe for my boyfriend. He absolutely loves it. This is his second pair. I also have a pair myself and love them. They are comfortable since your foot shapes the shoe bed after wear (that's why they are so popular; molds to your foot). If you take care of them they can last a very long time. I am now in law school but purchased them my senior year in high school ( so 5 years) still in great shape.

I bought Birkenstocks for my son for Christmas! They came so quickly and were JUST what I wanted for him. The only problem was, I had ordered the wrong size. Turned out the return process is SO easy and he will have a new pair in the correct size in two days. I couldn't be happier! Thanks, Zappos!

Love them. They are comfortable with and without socks. The soft grey color goes with everything. I'll probably buy again in another color.

This was my first time ordering the soft footbed and I was very pleased with the extra comfort they provided. Even though they do cost more, they are worth it. Great service from Zappos as usual.
