Customer Reviews Birkenstock Boston Shearling - Suede (Unisex)

Fit is great. Always a 39 in Berks and These I believe are narrow but I never notice a difference between narrow and regular. Love the new color. Makes them look cute !!

Fits like a Birkenstock. Wore with socks the first night and fit like a glove after that.

I ordered my usual size (I have two other Birks) but these definitely felt narrower and smaller. I normally order narrow width and went with the regular for these due to the fur, but they still felt very snug on my feet. I do wear these with regular, every day socks and not bare feet. I know that affects the fit... but I'd go a half size bigger if I order these again. They are comfortable nonetheless and keep my feet extremely warm.

I need a narrow Birk and these narrow shoes fit the bill perfectly! Maybe the shearling does help with making them a bit more narrow, but they are so comfy I just love wearing them!

For those of you who are between sizes like I am, just want you to know that I’m very glad I went with the bigger size. For one thing it’s nice to wear them with socks, albeit pretty thin ones, just so that your ankles aren’t left out in the cold. I got the Birkenstock socks and love them. And the shoes (slippers?) are still comfortable without socks too.

I love this shoe and will wear with no socks. The shearling lining takes up 1/2-1 full size. I have a pair of unlined Boston’s that I ordered 1 size larger because I wanted to wear them with thick socks. So I ordered these in the same size, a 42 (one size up for me), and they fit just right. I intend to wear barefoot. If I wanted to wear socks I’d have to go up in size

Love these! They are comfortable and warm for the winter!

These were consistent with the reviews-great! I previously had a pair of these for probable about 20 years. I loved them but without thick socks my feet were always cold. The shearling on these solves the cold problem. Really like these. Wish they came in the dark brown like my others but the caramel color works also.

These are very comfortable! I’m on my feet a lot at work and I love the soft warmth and support.

I went up one size from what I usually wear in this brand and that was definitely the right move. These shoes are warm and required very little breaking in. Perfect for when you need a quick slip on shoe during the colder months. Not the most stylish looking, but comfort and practicality trump style sometimes. I did also have an issue others have mentioned where both shoes came with visible marks on the suede upper. I don’t know if they just were handled roughly or they were an exchange but it was certainly disappointing to pay this price for a shoe that came damaged. Overall happy with the purchase, just wish they were in better shape when they arrived.

I love, love, love these! So warm and comfortable.

The Shearling makes the inicial fit tight but it won’t take long before the shoes will feel more cozy.

Awesome shoes but a bit snug. I’m usually about an 11.5 and this felt snug to fine; also a bit tight but the shoe is excellent. Love ‘em.

Love the Boston Shearling, I always order narrow and they fit perfectly. I ordered the grey and really like the color, a very soft silver color. If you want a nice warm shoe for winter these are the ticket.

OMG. I had a pair of non-shearling not narrow width Boston’s that I’d been trying to make work for years with thick socks. They never really worked (narrow size was way hard to find in the pre-Zappos era I bought original pair). I moved recently and discarded lots of stuff that was not working, but still clung to that original pair b/c, while I’m always happy for “boot season” to arrive, some days you need a good pair of Birks. I rotate thru 3 colors of the flip-flop style of Birks in the warmer months and always long for something as comfy for the cold weather. After moving the old pair of Boston’s one more time and finally admitting that they were not working, I gambled on the shearling Boston’s and won! I’m donating the original pair plus a couple of pairs of Uggs (with their faux shearling and lack of any kind of support). These are the jam. I bought my usual numerical size but in narrow width and they’re perfect. May have to invest in another color...

I’ve worn Birkenstock’s for 27 years and when the shearling first came out, I scoffed and said they were copying UGG. Well, years later I finally decided to try a pair instead of my usual UGG Ansley’s. I ordered the black in 37 narrow, which is my size in ALL styles and fit was perfect and they are SO comfy!!! I even like the way they look. I don’t think I’d like the look in a lighter color (love gray, but didn’t love pic of shearling) but the black looks great. I saw some reviewers questioning if they need to go up a size or change to regular width with the shearling and my experience is NO. I ordered my usual and a 37 regular to compare and they regular was definitely too wide everywhere except the heel. They are supposed to fit snug (not tight) because they definitely stretch out. Highly recommend

I'm a big Birkenstock fan so it's no surprise that I LOVE these shearling lined Boston shoes. I did order a size up from my usual Birkenstock size, but I find I always need to do that when ordering shearling lined shoes. They fit great and are very comfortable.

Perfect and comfortable

I bought my usual size 38N and they were perfect. I wore them constantly last winter and am thinking of buying a second pair for this winter. Not because my first pair are worn out, but because I loved them so much. In fact, I wore them almost everywhere. If my feet could talk they would actually emit a loving sigh every time I put them on. I'm thinking of buying black or gray for this season.

This is an awesome shoe, not the cutest, but so comfortable and warm. It took about a week to break them in. I was used to the soft sole so these did take a while to get use to them. Wish they made a navy with cream shearling!

This was the second Birkenstock fur lined clog I bought, the last one wore through the fur and I love to wear it at home in winter. It took a long time to wear through, so I anticipate this pair to last about 10 years.

I usually wear a 39 in Birkenstocks. For these shearling-lined birks, I opted for the Zappos-recommended size of 40. They're perfect. I did buy two pairs (same size) because the shearling can add lumps in different locations. My right shoe was perfect, but both left shoes were lumpy in odd locations. I assume it will eventually flatten out with wear. Re smudges on top referenced by another reviewer: Looks like that's a design feature. Both pairs of the shoes had them.

I normally wear a 37 and I ordered these in a 38 incase I wanted to wear socks with them. However, they fit perfectly like a 37 and they are not crazy wide in the foot bed like most this style. I am keeping them because they are so comfortable and will use them as my slippers as well as regular shoes. I can either get thin socks if I want or they will most likely stretch some with wear! I love them and recommend them!

I have a narrow heel but find the N width to be too narrow..I can feel the edges of the inside sole ..I prefer the R width...I wish Zappos would carry more of the Boston Shearling in the R width sizes. I didn't care for the orangey color and black is too dark for the South and of course the dove is sold out in R

I bought these to replace my Ugg slippers because I needed better arch support. These fit the bill perfectly!! I did a lot of research in my options and could not be happier with my choice. A+
