Customer Reviews Birkenstock Arizona EVA Essentials

They feel like the original Birks - really very comfortable! I await summer in the Midwest to re-evaluate their comfort in the heat. Will my foot sweat and become too hot? More to come ....

These were a gift for my mother who wears a size 8. I ordered the corresponding size and they were huge. I had to go back and order a size 6

These are great for the pool. They are not quite as comfortable as the regular Birks.

Love these shoes - this is the third pair for me. I wear them around the house and have a few pair to slip on for errands. They are great for the pool because of the material. Great price for a Birkenstock brand shoe.

i'm a huge birk fan esp of the arizona style. i have the gizeh style in EVA material and really like them, super comfortable. unfortunately these were not as comfy for me in the EVA so i will stick to my arizonas with soft sole + suede upper. i don't recall my EVA gizehs requiring break-in time but i just didn't love these upon try-on so back they went. if this helps, i stuck with my same size i always wear in birks a 39 which is 8-8.5 (but i typically wear 8.5-9 in all other shoes).

These run true to size, also have the old school Birk style which I like. It’s a really great idea to make these out of the waterproof EVA material but the end result just isn’t wonderful. The material actually started to give me a blister on the outside of my big toes just from one afternoon wearing them around the house. They do squeak when wet or sweaty and tend to make my feet get hot. I returned and will be ordering the traditional leather/cork material Birk.

My sister told me to buy these for her, not asked told. She loves them apparently. So good on you Arizona Essentials.

I usually wear size 39, but ordered 38 based on other reviews and they fit fine. I usually wear a soft footbed due to bad feet and these might take a little getting used to, but I think they'll be okay. One of the buckles was put on wrong, but don't think that will cause a problem.

These seem to run smaller than traditional Birkenstocks. It has to do with where the toe area sits. They are very comfortable though. I will order a size bigger and try again.

I am new to birks. Thought at this pricepoint, it was a good place to start. My right foot is swollen all the time. I like being able to adjust for each foot as I need. I went with silver cause the buckles are the same color. I don't like the white buckle on the other colors.

The sizing is really misleading. I’m a true size 7 (7.5 in heels) wide, and these shoes felt like they were almost a full size larger than advertised. I may try a 6-6.5, but am certain the size will feel too narrow for me.

I have flat feet and need arch support always, so these are great for me to wear around the house and yard when the weather warms up.

Had to return - was too big

I chose these specifically for the color but once they arrived and I tried them on, they were more comfortable than I thought they would be. It’s only been 3 days but so far they’ve been amazing on my arches!

I ordered one pair in my usual size. They were way too big and gave them to a friend. I re-ordered down to the smallest size and they were perfect. I really like them and they have good arch support.

Loved the size of these, and they'll be perfect for my daughter's first season as a lifeguard!

I got narrow, but they feel longer in length instead of the width being smaller.

Maybe I just have a narrow foot, but I felt these "narrow" Birkenstocks to be wide and made my feet look clunky. I have now tried several Birks and just can't get used the the clunky look. They also don't feel very comfortable to me because of the little supports they have beneath the toe and foot joint. Those bumps just don't match up with where my joints are and are consequently uncomfortable. So I'm returning these.

Bought this for a beach vacation. I like the style and silver color. I usually wear 5.5 and bought 36 narrow. The width was ok but the length is too long. I wore them anyway because they weren’t available in smaller sizes than 36 but I wish they were.

It fit like a regular width birki. I do prefer wide, but this was fine. The sole felt like an orthotic, I wear them to shower & around the house.

These fit much different than a regular birk. I wear a size 8 shoe in most brands and have always fit into size 39 in birks, but these were way too long and the straps were very loose even when tightened to my normal notch. I would recommend sizing down. Other than the sizing, they were super cute and comfy!

Cute on some people. The pink is bright and perfect for yard shoes. One of the buckles rubs on my feet.

Comfortable shoes. Bought them for use around the pool and they are perfect for the task.

My feet are sensitive, so I have a hard time finding casual sandals that feel good. These are very comfortable, and my feet are happy.

These are comfortable, but in the heat your foot tends to sweat and stick to the EVA material. For the money they are a good deal. Don’t have to worry about ruining your good leather sandals with these.
