Love Birkenstock's. Due to the neuropathy in my feet these are the only shoes/sandals/clogs that I will wear. I get the support I need and comfort with the soft foot bed.

This is my first pair of Birkenstock’s and I really like the soft bed. They were comfortable when I put them on and they are really cute! I wear a 71/2 and purchased the 37 and they were a perfect fit.

These are so cute and comfortable right out of the box (unlike the old-school Birks that need a break-in period)! They fit exactly like my 12 year old Arizonas. Sizing is tricky if you're new to Birkenstocks; you have to make sure the toe support and arch support both hit in the right places. I wear a size smaller in Birks than I do in Danskos, which also have European sizing. The khaki is greener than I expected, but still neutral enough to go with a lot of colors.

I’ve had quite a few of these sandals. I love them. One thing to note is that I’m usually a size 8, and in other shoes I wear a size 39. In these sandals the 38 fit fine. I know they say that’s for a 7-7.5. 39’s are too big.

Very happy with birks, but el naturalistas are a favorite too

I am a 7.5 B . I went with the 38 regular width over the narrow and glad I did. The narrow looks a little sleeker but for comfort the regular was the best. Love the soft footbed. Makes break in time MUCH less.

I have about 7 pr of Birkenstock sandals. I started wearing them when a friend shared that her podiatrist had recommended Birkenstocks for plantar fasciitis. I have two other flowered pair and have been looking for some new ones because mine are starting to wear out, after many years I might add. I wear them all summer long and then sometimes even with socks in the cooler months. I cannot tell you how many times people have complemented me on these shoes (the flowered ones). They are so hard to find and prior to finding these on Zappo's, I could only find them in Birkenstock stores at the beach. I love the way they look, but most of all, the way they feel. There is not one other sandal that I can wear for walking extended periods that don't ever make my feet hurt. I have high arches and these have the perfect arch support that never flattens. Try them, you will definitely not be sorry.

The Florida Soft Footbed runs true to Birkenstock sizes and is a cute alternative to the usual offerings without being a garish print. I got the green print and it's true to the color pictured. As I've gotten older I can't wear the traditional footbed anymore and although the softbed doesn't last as long, I'm glad it's an alternative.

Haven't purchased a new pair of Birks in a while but have worn them for close to 20 years (back in the days they didn't make "pretty"ones) because these shoes remove any plantar fas pain, keep my hips and back in alignment, & allow my claustrophobic feet to breathe. I have probably 30 pairs, including clogs and Mary Jane styles. The only drawback is that my foot has "widened" a bit over the years because of the freedom of the Birk. No big deal. The expense of purchase may frighten you at first, but when the shoes last as long as Birkenstocks do, you are practically getting wonderful, comfortable, healthy shoes for pennies.
This particular shoe is lovely, muted colors go with a variety of clothing, and the footbed is firm and comfortable. The fit is a little tight yet as are the straps, being new, but I wore them with no socks the 1st time and did not get rub marks or discomfort. I am glad I got them and will probably shop for spring clothes to complement the flower pattern.

This is my favorite style of a Birkenstock shoe, as the 3 straps offer the most options for comfort. I found the new floral pattern to be lovely. Soft and sweet, and not at all over the top; it functions almost like a neutral.

Finally, a pair of Berks I can wear. I normally wear a 9. - 9.5, I ordered the 40 and it work well, perhaps a little long, but still fits well. My second toe is longer than my big toe, but this style wiorks great, no rubbing!

Pregnant in the summer heat, and I needed a great pair of sandals that last. In the 2 weeks I've had them I love them. I feel they are a bit wide in the toes, but this style doesn't come in a narrow. I ordered a different style in narrow but they didn't seem as comfortable. I held an old navy flip flop up against the back of these are the shape is the same around the toes-- so they aren't too wide after all. Just takes getting used to! But the comfort is there! I just need to not worry about looks!

I wasn't sure about the Birko-Flor because it isn't leather. Let me tell you...these shoes are so comfortable. Soft inside, don't rub your feet. I wear them everyday. LOVE!

I love Birkenstocks! After years of thinking they were ugly we moved to Germany for a work assignment. Seeing EVERYONE in ?? wearing them I broke down & bought a pair of Arizonas. So did my husband. Now I know why! When you get a good fit it is as if you are walking on clouds. I now probably own 6/7pairs, including a pair of boots! It might take a time or two to get the proper fit (width & footbed style) but you will never regret your purchase and will wear them forever!

I LOVE the navy color and three-straps style. However, the toe area was so large on my foot that my feet looked like large paddles. Yikes! I have since ordered the Birkenstock women's Mayari that is available in a women's narrow. I would highly recommend looking for a women's style narrow if you are having the same trouble with the Birkenstocks fit that I had!

These sandals look great and fit great. I received compliments on how cute they are. I have a narrow foot, so was able to buckle them to a comfortable width. I wear 8-1/2 and the 39 fit perfectly.
The only things that could be better are the buckles. They worked fine, however they seem a little fragile, not a sturdy metal buckle. Hoping they don’t break. Luckily these shoes don’t require buckling each time as they slip right on.
