Based upon the reviews I ordered a full size larger to get a perfect fit.

Beautiful shoe came exactly as expected. I did find it odd upon receiving it was literally just the shoes in the shipping box. No Birkenstock box. Overall not an issue though.

Very comfortable and supportive. I had an ankle injury years ago and usually avoid slip-on shoes. I took a chance and am very happy with the support and wear the shoes much more than I thought I would- out for errands, walking the dog, around the house. I can wear them all day and my feet never hurt.

Very cute, but sadly, these don't fit like my other three pairs of Birks. Maybe it's the fur, maybe it would squish down over time, but I need a full size larger. Too bad, I have to send them back and can't wait to get another pair.

This review has nothing to do about the shoes, but about Zappo. I was very disappointed in the condition of the shoes. The shoes had certainly been worn before I received them. The toes of each shoe was scuffed as were the sides of both shoes. I've ordered another pair so we will see. This is my first complaint about Zappo and its service.

Best shoes ever! No break in time comfortable from the start. I suffer from planters fascitis and am on my feet all day at school. These shoes keep my feet happy all day long!

These do run small, especially with the shearing lining. Luckily I ordered a size up. They fit correctly.

I live in the South and bought two pair of these as I can wear them almost all year. I'm between a 9-9.5 and the 40 are a perfect fit. The arch support is perfect; not overdone; I have back issues and these work. I hope Birkenstock keeps making these as I get a new or new pairs every year. They last forever. But I like to restock my shoes every season.

I love these Birks BUT the where the fur meets the seam of the shoe at the top of the toe bed - it is bare so you just feel a hard molding instead of the soft fur. It's a defect and it makes the shoe uncomfortable.

Wear them at home all the time - need the arch support and they are so warm. I got them in a 42 and I usually wear a 40 but think 1 size bigger would be fine for most. Also, went to the wider one but don't think I needed to - the fur does smash down some. They don't have the soft footbed - if anyone is wondering. Still love them, though.

These shoes RULE! Extremely comfortable, wear them around the house as slippers or outside. Definitely go up one size from usual Birkenstock size you wear, it will fit perfectly.

These are so warm and toasty, I can even wear them outside without socks, although they're even cozier with. These seem pretty true to size to me, and I didn't have the poking-seam problem that others described.

I have been wearing these for about a month and they are so incredibly comfortable. I ordered them when tying my shoes became more difficult during the last few months of my pregnancy. I wanted something warm, cute, and comfy and these fit the bill perfectly. It didn't take very long to break them in; I only had a couple days where my feet were a little sore but I powered through and don't regret it. I wear them with socks as I tend to have reactions to direct contact with wool. One knock against them is that some of the wool has worn off in the heel area already. It doesn't change the fit or comfort, and you don't notice it while they're on, but I was a little bummed by it. I don't know if it's a quality thing or just the way I walk but it happened either way. The rest of the wool is intact and shows no wear other than getting compressed. I would buy these again in a heartbeat.

I had to order up a size to get the right fit. Normally I wear 38 for Birkenstock sandals, but the 39 was the right fit for the clogs. I would definitely recommend them!

I'm such a fan of the Birkenstock sandals that when I saw these, I just had to try them! And they are just as comfy as the sandal. The soft fur inside keeps my feet warm and the ease of slipping them on and off is a plus.

I love Birkenstock!! This style did not disappoint. I wanted something I could wear that would be warm and useful when I didn't have to wear boots. Very happy with my purchase.

Warm, soft and comfy!
Originally ordered my usual size a 40 but it was a little short, the shearling takes up some space. Exchanged for the 41 and fits great!

These are very warm and comfortable! It did take a few times wearing to break them in. I thought they were going to be a tad too small but after wearing them around the house a bit the lining molded to my feet and now they fit like my sandals!
