Customer Reviews Birkenstock Linnea

I bought these in taupe with silver buckles and I get so many compliments on them! Literally people stop me in stores to say how much they like these shoes. They're super comfortable even with my picky feet and plantar fascitis in one foot. I can wear them all day at work and also walk around town in them. These are a win!

I can only comment on the left shoe as my right foot is in a boot. It is an extremely comfortable sandal. I purchased this hoping all the straps would keep my foot stable. I have sever plantar fascitis, which is primarily why I bought these. I have tried everything to get some relief and now I am adding many wedge shoes hoping this will take the pressure off of my heal. I think these are going to work very well for me. I am planning to take them to Europe and try them out on cobblestones.

Wore this right out of the box. So comfy and stylish!

I do not usually wear a wedge, but the arch on these fit me just right. I have a low volume super narrow foot and he adjustable straps make these fit well. I walked three miles in them yesterday in NYC, second time I wore them, no blisters. Love them!

Wow!! LOVE these sandals! Supremely comfortable and they can be dressed up or down. I found them to be true to size for Birkenstocks - I typically wear a 41 narrow in Birkenstocks (and a 10.5 or smaller 11, medium width, in other shoes). These are really stable in spite of the tapered base, amazingly comfortable and supportive, and very easy to walk in even though they have a heel (the rocker sole helps propel you), and they are super lightweight! Cannot say enough about these shoes - the fact that I wound up buying these in all three colors probably makes the point :) Highly recommended!!

Great shoe, edgy looking Birk. I have plantar fasciitis and Birks relieve the pain. On my feet all day while at work and wouldn't make it through the work day without my Birks. Hands down the BEST shoe for plantar fasciitis sufferers.

Pricey but Great! Casual sandal but with a little wedge/platform. So if you live in your birkis but you want a little more dressed up look, these are perfect. I really like them.

I purchased these in the Anthracite Suede. Ever since my doctor recommended a few years ago that I wear shoes with rigid soles due to back problems, I've been wearing Birkenstocks (Arizonas and Madrids). But honestly, I'd wear Birks even if I didn't have back issues. They are so comfortable and I can wear them all day long without issue. I'm happy to report that the Linnea style is no exception. I received these yesterday and, at first, I was a little worried that the heel height combined with the rigidity would not work for me. But I've been wearing them ever since they arrived and the longer I wear them the more the foot bed conforms to my foot and the more comfortable they become. The suede is so soft. I normally wear a size 6 so Zappos recommended the 37s for me, but I know from past experience that I wear a 36 in Birks so that's what I ordered and they are a perfect fit.

They run a little big. I wear from a 6 to a 7 depending on the shoe or boot. I ordered the smallest size and they fit perfect, tightened to the last setting. These are platform Birkenstocks!! So cool, look great with denim shorts and really anything. Have had so many compliments. The nude color is the best, ordered all the colors, but the nude with the white bottom looks the most modern. Love them, and they are comfortable! Win,Win!

Love this sandal! Love the color, fit and style! Super comfy and able to wear all day long! Hope they make a black leather as I would buy those too!

Beautiful shoe, great for a narrow foot. Went with my typical Birkenstock size 36 which was a perfect fit!

Love love love this sandal! The slight heel makes it more comfortable than a traditional Birkenstock. Super cute, too!

I want to love these, but had to return. The back side vertical straps are loose and bulky, and, in my eye, ruins the sleek look of the sandal. Also, the sole is narrow. Being prone to twisty ankles, these would not be safe. Great style and color, but doesn't quite work for me.

Wanted to like these - the sole is too narrow for me, while the footbed is too wide (and I don't have narrow feet) - not stable enough for my prone to twisting ankles. They're darn cute, but can't afford another twist after surgery. The side rear vertical straps are gappy, too. I could see that online but was hoping they wouldn't be too loose on me. That look takes away from the elegance of the sandal. Have to return.

Love these sandals, the slight heel is great!

I ordered two sizes. I decided to keep the larger size bc I wanted a bigger toe bed. Also, the smaller size was scuffed on the suede on both shoes. I hope that doesn’t happen here but I will treat them with protection soon. I have high arches and felt good in the shoes. It was a little hard to maneuver to buckle the top. I really like the look. I received compliments.

These are great, but I like the Birk Cleo better.

Very cute shoe. I am an 8 1/2 N or S and have other Birkenstocks in Narrow that fit well. This shoe was too loose and the ankle strap was way too big.

I love the look of these sandals but the strap around the ankle rubs on my leg. I've tried both loose and fitted fit of the upper strap. The foot bed feels like any of my other Birkenstocks and will fit perfectly in a few wearings. I really want to make these work but the cost is too much for a pair of sandals that I can only wear standing still or sitting around.

Grrrrr. Footbed not shaped like my feet. I have narrow heel but med-wide forefoot, high arch, and a slew of foot issues (ie, arthritis, bursitis, neuroma). I'm supposed to wear low motion soles but with a bit of cush and arch support. I have orthotics but that doesn't work in summer so I try to get around that, esp as my feet swell in warm weather. Birks are sized 8-8.5 or 9-9.5. I'm more 8.5-9. And my toes aren't tapered like the toe on the shoe. So the photos are the size 40. A 39 would look better, but then my third/fourth toes would bump into the lip on the edge of the footbed and be sore. So, Birks just aren't a good fit for me in an open toe. They feel ok, I just don't know if I can get over how they look. Somehow the appearance of that much space in front of the toe bugs me. Also, the overlap of the leather on the medial side where the upper third strap is joined to the lower straps catches and rubs under my arch a bit. At least it doesn't have a scratchy seam, but the two leather pieces aren't joined to make one smooth piece - it's one on top of the other with a loose edge. Maybe someone with a lower arch would not have a problem? I think some moleskin over it might improve it. Love that the sole is light and not dark, and the nude color is versatile.

Feet feels lose and without any support

Beautiful but too big..and left one hurts at the base of the ankle buckle

I was a little disappointed to say the least. When I received the shoes, the box did not seem like it was the correct box for the shoes. Also, there was very little paper to protect the shoes. The suede looked worn on the sides and I believe that is from the lack of tissue protection. This was my first time ordering from Zappos but honestly I thought I would receive the shoes in a size appropriate package with plenty of tissue. I did not. The shoes were nothing special. I didn't find them supportive at all. I think when it comes to Birkenstock's you have to get sized at one of their stores before you start buying online. I hope when I order from Zappos next time, that shoes will be packaged properly.

Looked bad quality, sole looked warn, material did not look good quality
