I have a few other styles of Birkenstock sandals but have been wanting to try the double strap. I was in the store recently and saw a pair on sale for $89 but they weren't in my size. They ordered my size and shipped to my house. I got the black ones which are so nice and look almost Navy.

I feel like I have a pretty average width foot and based on the reviews and knowing the sandals are considered unisex, I ordered the narrow. Although I never order narrow shoes, I'm glad I did with the Birkenstock Arizona. The narrow fits well. The regular width would have been too wide for me.

It was really long time since I purchased the real Birkenstocks and they don’t disappoint! I’m usually a 9 1/2 and got the 40 , but as I tried them I realized they were just right at the edges of my toes and heels so I switched to 41 and they are perfect! The narrow is what others also said; it means regular for women, so they fit perfectly fine for me.
I love the black suede because it’s simple, delicate and goes with everything. Zappos never disappoints in terms of customer service and speed!

Definitely choose the soft footbed. Suede straps will have more gives while oiled leather will take a bit to stretch.

Love all my birks! Have multiple colors of the Arizona style and will probably always wear this style/brand!

I have bought Birkenstocks for many years. The fit has been consistent over time, comfortable, attractive, and long wearing.

I have very high arches and was hoping this shoe would provide the support I need. Birkenstock soft footbed was recommended by my doctor. I tried it on and felt support in my arch, but was in a lot of pain immediately on the top of my foot when I walked forward. The top strap dug into my foot no matter how loose or tight I adjusted the buckle. Wish it had worked for me.

So comfortable and stylish, these can be unisex as I wear the men's version (I have wide feet). They go with everything and I can walk miles in them, even while breaking them in!

Still hasn’t arrived and still says processing. Not impressed with Zappos at all. Second time ordering and it has not been a good experience at all!

I love my birks. I have classically narrow feet so I will, as usual, drill another hole to tighten them up. Color is super cute.

I wear size 81/2 wide or 9 in shoes. I went with a 40 in the suede Birkenstock sandals. They took me a little while to get used to but are very comfortable now. They seem to match with a lot of the summer outfits I wear. Even though I love the suede and did spray them with fabric protector I did get a stain on the top strap of one. Still, I don't think I would have chosen the other colors, just unfortunate. But I would still recommend them.

I have completely flat feet and the arch is perfect for me. I ordered a women's size 11M and my toes were to the edge and the arch was too narrow so I ordered a men's size and they fit perfect.

These are replacement Birkenstocks. My last pair were no longer wearable. Couldn't live without these sandals in the summer.

My husband has very wide feet with a high instep and therefore has a hard time finding shoes that fit. These sandals fit and are very comfortable. This is about his fourth pair!!

I ordered a 38 Regular and received a 37 narrow. Way too small and narrow.

The suede version of these Birkenstocks were too wide even though I ordered narrow. And while normally a 39 or an 8 1/2 I needed a 40.

I used the measurement guidelines on Birkenstock's website and wound up with a perfect fit. The sandal is super-comfortable and I cannot believe I waiting this long for getting a pair. My recommendation is to be sure about the width as I have a narrow foot and I am sure the regular or standard size would have been too wide. I can certainly see why these are so popular.

These Birkenstocks did not work for me - the leather was too stiff across the top of my foot - not like typical Birks. They look great but just not a good fit for me.

Takes a day or two to break in, but once broken in, the most comfortable summer sandal there is.

Fit and size were fine. I'm returning them because the buckles are plastic and cheezy looking.

My friend wears a size 9 so I ordered size 40. She says they are the perfect size and she loves them.
