Customer Reviews Birkenstock Arizona Soft Footbed

I have a love/hate relationship with Birkenstock. The dislike comes from the clunky design and unattractive silhouette, but if you close your eyes and walk a mile or two you love them. The white sole and shiny platinum/cool rose gold makes these a smidge more fashion forward and palatable with some jeans. If Birks weren't back in, I wouldn't purchase, but I can't think of anything more comfortable. The narrow was perfect on the 2nd buckle, and the soft footbed is a dream. Close your eyes and click purchase! Your feet will thank you.

The color is fantastic, a goldy pink, just like the photo. The thin white sole is refreshing, and they look surprisingly feminine. The buckles are adjustible, even so, I found the narrow width was pushing on my pinkie toes. I'm going to size up, to give these shoes one more chance. And thank you Zappos for making exchanges so easy!

this shoe is not narrow as the site suggests. the holes for the buckle are way too tight, but once done up the shoe looks great. i have a wide foot and this shoe works for me

Spectacular Platinum is not what you would say subtle. The photo is not what you get... It's garish, slick n shinny... oh and did I mention stiff? Didn't even try and buckle them... Back they go.

Super comfortable, like all Birkenstocks. Took a few wears to break in. I get so many compliments on the lavender color!

I just purchased the spectacular gold color and I’m in love with the color and look and feel of the shoe. My only complaint is that they seem a little smaller compared to the other Arizona shoe I own. So I’m contemplating on keeping them or returning them.

It is half size small. I wear 9.5 and I got 39.00. But still perfect

I wear 9.5 in USA and 39 abroad so I ordered my abroad size. But if it was a 39.5 would have been a little more room but still works fine. Yes it is narrow compared to previous styles however there is a huge support around the foot. I feel better knowing it holds my foot together rather then let it loose.

I was trying to decide between the Florida in pink or the Arizona in the rose pink color. I got the Arizona and the soft footbed completely won me over. They are super comfortable and yet modern and cute. The color is unique and makes my old olive green suede birks feel pretty old school. I love them!

I am in love with these. So feminine and so comfortable. I own three pairs and while these are quite the financial investment it was totally worth the splurge. I get so many complements on them. They are so unique and the color is so classic. I strongly recommend these and want to shout DANKE BIRKENSTOCK!!!!

The fit was fine, comfort was great. My feet are narrow, narrow, and I have high arches. The color was very pretty, kind of a pink-lavender. The color is one of those colors that changes with what it's paired with. With some things it had an odd brownish tinge. Weird, but true. It is beautiful with denim though. I did keep the platinum. It's kind of a pale gold. Some say this color looked plastic. Maybe it does, but I still like it. I'm a true Birkenstock devotee.

First of all, I am biased in that I love the (let's say, "unique") Birkenstock design. I own many pairs of their sandals, but these are both the comfiest and the most stylish. I get many compliments on the color (spectacular rose which is as pictured) when I wear them and with the soft footbed it is like walking on pillows. Would definitely recommend!

Very cute and silly. I get lots of compliments. Also super comfy!

I wear 38 R (Wide) in the styles : Gizah, Sparta, Mayari, Zurich, and Salina. I have never been able to wear the Arizona. The wide was too wide and the narrow too narrow. I wanted these metallic ones so badly that I tried one last time. I wasn't happy about them being soft footbed because I am a die hard firm footbed type girl! However, I found that I do like the soft footbed and I can wear a size larger but a narrow in it. So I got the 39 narrow. The 38 narrow fit ok but my toe came to the end and there was no additional room in it at all. I think the soft footbed has something to do with the way it fits better. They are a fresh look for summer and I am happy with them.

And the fact that I could even find a Birkenstock in a narrow and a color I like was Americal. The colors are beautiful neutral and complements any color, the size is perfect and I’m very very happy

These are super pretty pink and take only a day of wearing befor they feel like you’re wearing custom made sandals. They are so brilliantly shiny and look great with sundresses for the Spring and Summer seasons. Love then abd would buy again in a heartbeat.

Perfect pink. Not too bright but not too soft. Typical Birk sizing/style/comfort but the pink just makes it more fun. Lots of compliments.

Love the copper color, stylish and comfortable. I wear an 8 and ordered the 38.

Comfortable and stylish. I ordered the copper in a 38, I wear an 8 and have a wide foot.

Usually take regular width. These were narrow fit. They were fine. Got tons of compliments. Love them. Cushy. Perfect birks.

Usually wear a 40 regular width. These are the narrow. They do fit in the width - I have the Florida in the 40 regular ( picture of the foot NOT filled in on the shoe)- the 40 R are perfect. These Rose colored leather Arizona's are so CUTE! I decided to keep the N 40's because I love the look and the regulars were sold out on every website. They are comfortable but would get the regular width if that was possible. The leather is NOT hard - I find they are comfortable and the shiny look is adorable on. Highly recommend..The softbed is the only Birks I will buy going forward. LOVE the softbed. GO FOR IT!

Beautiful shoes, but the white sole is a bad idea. Got dirty immediately and it is hard to keep a nice bright white. Also the upper leather is very tough and stiff. I will purchase the darker soles next time. Still love the shoes though.

Cute shoes but bulky so I had to return them, they make my feet look huge

I think these metallic rose colored sandals were delightful in every way. I wear a lot of pink and it went well with all shades. They were comfortable and a fun color. I didn't quite like the white sole as much as i do the cork. I sent them back because they are color specific and I do not want to pay that much for every color. I will order a neutral color that i can wear with everything.
