I just wanted to comment on the sizing, as some reviews say they’re too small bc of the shearling, some say they’re normal… I think the discrepancy is that they were all narrow width in prior years, which with the shearling was on the small side. I had to exchange my normal size last year & go up. This year I ordered that same larger size but in regular width, & they were too big. In the regular width, I did need my normal size. Hope that helps!

I normally were 39 Narrow. With the shearling, I needed to size up to a 40 (like other reviewers said). Very cozy.

Run a little small, which is unusual for Birkenstocks.

Cozy and supportive slipper alternative - replacing my Ugg slippers, which wore out in the heel, and couldn't be happier! Clearly designed for indoor and outdoor wear, but with an ongoing virtual work schedule I wanted a daily home shoe with more structure and arch support. Comfortable from the first wear - no break-in needed. Adjustable buckle makes for a perfect fit. Sized just like my other birkenstocks and the regular/wide width works perfectly for my feet with a narrow heel and slightly wide ball.

I love these shoes! When they first arrived there was dust all over the suede but upon notifying Zappos Customer Service I was quickly sent a new pair free of charge.

I'm normally a 40 narrow in the Arizona sandals, I'm glad I sized up to 41 in the shearling clog. Fits length and width-wise. At first I thought they may be too narrow, but are already conforming to my feet. I plan to wear these with mid-weight socks, so the 41 works well for me.

This style runs a little smaller than my usual Birk, so I ordered a size up and they fit fine. I don't want to take them off; they are so comfortable in the house and for running errands in chilly weather.

Have worn Birkies for years (upon recommendation from doctor after plantar fasciitis diagnosis.) Decided to treat myself to these comfly lined Birks for around the house, and find myself forgetting and wearing them to the store or the dentist as well!

I ordered my normal Birkenstock size and width. Because of the faux sherpa lining, I'm having to break them in because the fur makes them a bit tight at first, but after a couple of days, they are conforming to my feet nicely. I have a similar pair in another color that is 7 years old now, and they still are in great shape. These make great winter slippers as well as outdoor shoes.

In my experience Women's size seven almost aways a perfect fit. With Birkenstock Zappos recommends a 38 but the 37's are the much better fit.

Size is good, therefore fit works as well. There was a flaw in the craftsmanship of the left shoe. There is a very hard plastic material poking out of the shearling that is incredibly sharp. Cannot wear.

So glad to have my second pair of shearling lined Birkenstocks. These fit a bit smaller than my last pair - at the same size

I like these a lot. They will be a staple this fall/winter. They are true to size; I am size 10 (41) and opted for "regular" (vs. narrow). They are a bit wider than I'd like, but I wear them with socks so it's ok; I did not try the "narrow" which might have been a better fit (my feet are normal width). They are easy-on and easy-off. They are comfortable, but not great for long walks, in my opinion, as they are somewhat floppy.

These are probably one of the best shoe purchases I've made in while. These have been my official work from home shoes during the winter and I'm so glad they arrived before the big winter storm and they've rarely left my feet since. Sadly, it's now getting a little too warm to wear these for more than just the morning, but leaning towards getting the regular Boston because I love these so much.

I bought these as a gift for my mom who swore she would never wear this brand because she didn't like the way other styles look. These are now her favorites and she wears them everywhere. She says they are the most comfortable shoes she's ever had. The shearling is amazing. Great quality!
