Customer Reviews Birkenstock Arizona Soft Footbed - Suede (Unisex)

Comfortable right out of the box. Well built as always. No break in period. No diminishment in the quality of their construction. How many shoes can you say that about still? All the other shoes I buy feel like they are made out of packing peanuts and held together with scotch tape. Ugly and expensive, but my feet are very happy.

I absolutely love these! While Birkenstocks are not exactly fashion forward, they are amazingly comfortable. The soft footbed is particularly nice. I wear a 8.5-9 in shoes and the 39 fits me perfectly.

This is the most comfortable shoe I've ever worn. It runs large and I had to get a smaller size. It took about a week to truly break them in but it was so worth it. I love the color and feel of these shoes. I walk everywhere in them.

Very comfortable! I can walk in these for many miles with no pain or problems. Also, awesome color.

Just when I thought Birks couldn't be any more comfortable they fooled me! This soft sole rocks! Bought these for my hub and he loves them. Thanks Birk for doing yourself proud and making our feet the happiest in town!

Life Changing!! I had lower back pain and plantar fasciitis before these shoes. Both of these ailments so bad I thought I was going to have to quit my job because I do have to stand and thought that was the cause of my pain. Within a couple of days I could tell that these shoes were helping and since I have to wear a closed toe shoe to work I ordered the Boston clog for work. It has been about a month since wearing only Birkenstocks and my lower back pain and plantar fasciitis are gone. I am so thankful my daughter got a pair for herself and I copied her!! If not for her I probably would not have discovered these shoes because from many years ago with the hard footbed I did not like. The soft footbed are awesome with very little break in time. Birkenstocks are the only shoe I will wear from now on. If you have ever had back or foot pain and find the cure to it you stick with what works and these shoes work for me.

After reading reviews, and based on past experience with the Arizona style, I ordered these in a narrow width instead of my usual regular width. I am very glad I did because they fit perfectly. The soft footbed and decent arch support make these so very comfortable, something very important when dealing with plantar fasciitis. I also prefer the softness and slight stretch of the suede straps over solid leather. An all-around nice sandal!

I love the Zappos reviews, so honest! I chose comfort and foot health over false beauty and now I think these shoes are gorgeous! Great support. The cork sole doesn't last as long as I would like but I can wear them for hours of moderate walking a day, every day! Love these shoes.

I bought these shoes for my husband who has very narrow feet and is hard to fit. He loves the shoes, and I love Zappos excellent service!

Love these sandals! I have arthritis in both feet and have several artificial joints. I was unable to wear the brand that I have worn for 12 years, so gave these a try. Great support and cushion. They mold to your feet and are truly a great fit!

These are very comfortable Birks. The fit is right on and by buying Narrow width for my somewhat slim foot, they worked out great. They are nicely adjustable and one of the few backless open toe shoes I can wear that don't fall off my foot with each step. The soft footbed is a must. And, of course, Zappos does a great job of delivering a quality product in a timely fashion. I no longer buy shoes anywhere else!

After looking online at Birkenstocks for a year, I finally ordered these. They are wonderful and I have worn them everday this summer!

Gorgeous color, but the suede straps are way too long. I had to fasten them on the very last hole, so if they stretched even just a tiny bit, the sandal would end up being too wide. Just as an FYI, the soft footbed does not have as much arch support as the original cork footbed.

I wear a 6 in woman's and bought these in a size 35 narrow. They fit great, maybe a little wide still. I feel like in Birkenstock narrow=regular and their regular=wide. As for the soft foot bed, it is taking longer to mold to my foot than my classic hard style Birkenstocks, but they still feel so nice and comfy.

The soft-footbed Arizonas are really yummy. They are soft but also supportive. The arch is a little less pronounced than the regular footbed, and I like this because I need moderate (not killer) arch support. For those of us with older feet, the comfort is wonderful! I wear them barefoot in the summer and around the house with socks in the winter.

There's nothing to say about Birkenstocks that hasn't already been said! :) They are the perfect sandal...comfortable, absorb sweat, supportive. Much better for your feet than flip flops. This is the first pair I have bought for a kid because his growth has slowed down and I know they'll fit for a year or so at least. They're actually great for kids because of their easy on-easy off nature, and they look decent with dressier summer clothes. If you can afford them, you can't go wrong!

My husband loves these sandals. We have been Birkenstock buyers for years.The sandals are perfect! Shipping was lightning quick!

I usually wear a 38 in Euro sizing but these were too big. My daughter tried them on and they fit so she kept them. She says they are "to die for comfortable." The soft bed is a great thing. I'll order another pair in a 37.

It has been 19 years since I wore a pair of Birkenstochs. The new soft bed does make a difference as to making them more comfortable. I bought them for a trip where there would be a lot of walking and they did the trick. I did break them in before the trip and that made the difference.

Love! Birkenstocks have always been a favorite brand of mine and just got these the other day! I highly recommend these!

I bought my first pair in '86 and have worn them all these years. I thought it was time for a new pair. My experience with Zappos, ease of ordering and notification of shipping, quality of packing was excellent. I will be purchasing from Zappos again. Thank you for making it so easy. I absolutely love this sandal, it is comfortable and easy to wear. And, yes I wear socks with them.

I have been wearing Birkenstocks in many different styles for many many years. I find them very comfortable, versatile and functional. Perhaps not the ultimate in glamor, so when I feel the need for glamor I wear something else. Perhaps I'll look through my catalogs and see if I can find a glamorous version of a Birkenstock because they're always coming out with new things.

The Soft Bed Suede Arizona style is the best choice for people with upper and lowed foot problems. i.e. bunions, neuromas and arthritis. I tried the Florida but it was like cardboard on my foot.

I bought the Birkenstock Arizona's for my husband. It was a Christmas gift and I ordered very late. Zappos not only had free shipping but they got them to me on Christmas Eve, exactly as they said they would. Love the shoes, love Zappos, and my husband was thrilled! Great job Zappos, you had the size, color, & great performance!

These are the most comfortable sandals I have ever owned! I normally wear a 7.5 to 8 in a Nike running shoe, and my feet are average, not wide or narrow. After reading other women's reviews I ordered the 37 Narrow and they fit perfectly. The 38 would have been way too big, so ignore the size chart and go a size smaller if you're a woman! My only complaint is that the taupe suede color looks different online - the actual strap color is less of a brown tan than in the picture, and is slightly more of a green/gray tan color. I highly recommend this sandal to any woman who loves Dansko clogs - they have similar arch support, maybe just a very slightly lower arch.
