Ironically I just ordered a new pair of this shoe. The last pair I ordered exactly 3 years ago. While the sole still has life left in it, the shearling has worn down to a level that they aren't as comfortable. I will keep the worn out pair and wear them out to the trash etc.

Extremely comfortable, great arch support. Had to return for a larger size. They seem to run small and narrow. Unique look/style. Solid value given the quality.

Ok I have to admit that I hate to take these off; they were supposed to be indoor skipper to replace my trashed uggs but I wear them for walking the dog
They are great for arch support too!

I had to exchange the first pair in order to get a better fit, maybe because of the fleece in the shoe bed. But Zappos’ exchange process was easy and the new shoes came quickly. I was totally satisfied with the process.

Love these Birks for fall!! I did need to go up a size from my other Birks because of the shearling lining. They fit perfect and are so comfy!!

Just like with all Birkenstock shoes, there needs a breaking in period. It does feels better and warmer when worn with socks.

I wear these as slippers and love them. Don't get me wrong--they are U-G-L-Y! But 1) they're super cozy, and 2) they feel great on my very-problematic flat feet. All summer long, I live in my Birk sandals because my feet (and ankles and knees) really need that support. So a couple years ago, I bought my first pair of these so that I could get that support through winter (at least when I'm at home). I also wanted to make sure I could run outside to grab the mail or whatever, without having to worry about getting the soles of my feet wet. These cover all the bases! I'm not attaching a photo because trust me, they don't look any better on your feet than they do in the picture, but they sure make me happy!

I’ve worn Boston’s for years and I buy my husband a new pair for his birthday every year because he wears them so much around the house. Finally got myself a shearling pair when they finally started making them in my size. I like them. They’re cozy. Not amazing comfort (Hokas are amazing), but nice on a chilly day. My best friend recently admired mine so I bought her this pair and she is loving the cozy aspect too. She worries her feet will sweat, but I’ve not had that problem.

Fit like custom made! I have very narrow feet and only Birkenstocks in Narrow fit me correctly. These shearling lined Bostons are perfection. It really helps to know your accurate Euro size. In US I wear a 10 narrow but in Euro sizing I know a 39 fits me best. That’s not what the algorithm will assign to me so it helps to mail that down. These are so beautiful and comfortable.

These are some of the coziest shoes I have ever put on my feet! I have been a true UGG fan for a while, but these have the coziness of the UGGs with the support of Birkenstocks. Win win!

Although I have somewhat wide feet, these “narrow” Birkenstocks fit nicely. I have a 2-yr old pair already, so I knew these will expand a bit as time goes by.

With wide flat feet Birkenstock is my go to every day shoe. Been wearing the shearling clogs for a few years. The quality is good= if your feet sweat the shearling will peel off inside of the shoe but while you have them enjoy every step.

I purchased these to wear in cold/cool weather/spring with thinner socks- as I expected, they fit perfect! Get your regular size knowing you will wear thin socks!

Little bit snug. But they loosened up a bit with time. Love these shoes.

These are my favorite shoes - I have two pairs: one for home and one for wearing outside on cold, but dry fall / spring days now that clogs are “in.” These are fantastic for wearing around the house if you want additional foot/arch support and warmth. I size down for Birkenstock (consistently across the brand, not just this particular shoe), but it’s important to figure out your right size by trying a couple of sizes before settling on the one that is most comfortable to you. Note that this shoe may feel a little snug at first but the shearling lining presses down as you wear it giving your foot a bit more room than when you first start wearing them.

These are one of the best pairs of shoes I’ve ever owned. They are soooo soft and cozy. I thought the shearling might feel hot or sweaty, but I’m very comfortable in them as long as I’m wearing socks. They double as slippers indoors. I could wear them every minute of every day. The mink color is really cute. I am a 38 in Birkenstock sandals and the 39 were a best fit for me in these.

They are very comfortable and warm. Next time I will probably buy withoutnfleece lined because I think the fleece will wear off

Had to size up 2 sizes from my usual Birkenstock size due to the shearling. Very comfy and warm
