LOVE these shoes. I call them my birkencrocs or crocenstocks. I can wear them all day and they're so comfy. I also love them because they're waterproof, so I'f im at a pool or something, I can wear them and not worry about ruining them. Really love these shoes...the only thing I would say that I would change, is I think these come in a narrow fit, so I wish they came a little wider, I feel like sometimes my smaller toes want to creep over the side

In Birkenstocks sandals I wear a size smaller than my regular shoe size. (I have 3 pairs of Gizehs in a 37 (us 6/6.5) while I wear a 7.5 in every other shoe). However, I do have a wider foot. So maybe because they are more narrow than traditional Birkenstock sandals, I found that I should’ve ordered a 38 (us 7/7.5). In terms of style - of course they’re cute. I got the all black, so I wear them with just about everything. Comfort? Very! They do need to be broken in just like other Birks. But after 2 days of achy soles, they are truly wonderful!! I love that I have the comfort and support of Birkenstocks, but I can get them wet. I even garden in them bc I can just hose them down. They are my new go to’s bc even a Die hard flip flop wearer needs a change.

LOVE these so much! I would have every color of these if I could! For now, two pairs, black pair, which I wear almost everyday and a white pair. PERFECT for the beach, pool, gym and shower! I normally wear a 36 in the regular Birkenstocks...but ordered 37 by mistake. They fit perfectly. Am a 6.5. so, I think they run slightly larger than the regular Birkenstocks. Plastic or EVA is super durable and easy to clean. Just don’t leave them in the sun or anywhere very HOT for too long, mine actually got contorted and twisted. I did fix them myself by standing in a hot bath then cool bath a few times till they molded back to normal.

I wanted these to work, because they are so chic and minimalist for a sandal, but alas this was a rare miss for me with Birkenstock. I have wide feet, so normal-width Birks are perfect for me. These are narrow-width (for Birks - probably regular-width for the rest of the world), and even though I sized up, they were still a bit too narrow. Most importantly, other reviews that mention how low the strap is on the foot are absolutely correct: these are the only Birks I've ever tried on that do NOT feel secure on your foot. They feel like you're going to kick them off by walking, because the strap is just too far forward. I could see these being a cute option for walking from your hotel room to the pool and back - but not for much more than that.

I wanted these to work but they felt too big. Had trouble walking around in them. Felt too wide definitely.

I LOVE these!!! I am so happy I got these. Honestly, the first time I saw these EVA material birks I was thinking who would buy those cheapie looking birkenstocks? I saw someone wearing the Madrid style and it was super cute on her and that change my mind. This style is so much more feminine looking. I was weary about the narrow width since I'm usually and reg-wide width. I have regular Gizeh size 39 and I got these in size 39 and they fit totally fine. They are a tad narrower but they did stretch out. I had them set on the last hole on the buckle but after 3 weeks practically wearing them everyday they stretched and I have them on the 2nd hole now. They are super comfy and I get compliments all the time. The olive color is super versatile. I love them so much I got the Arizona ones in silver. The look of the Arizona is totally different but I couldn't resist. I want to mention I have really sweaty feet and I have no problems. They don't slip when I wear them and I have no problems walking with them either. Although, I basically live in flip flops during the summer so I'm used to it. Definitely do not hesitate getting these!

Cushy, comfy, cute..I got the bright pink 38. I am an 8-8.5 wide. Although these are Narrow Birks the combo of foam material and the adjustable strap accommodate my wide right foot nicely. I wear them a lot on my hard tile floors and watering the yard.

These affordable and stylish sandals are perfect for vacationing at the beach. I have a slightly wide foot with a high instep and I was able to adjust them so they felt comfortable. I took my usual size. Love.

I love these Madrid shoes! Even though I wear a size 8 in most shoes, I almost always wear a 7-7.5 or 38 in Birkenstocks. These only come in narrow and they fit fine even though I don’t consider myself having a narrow foot. I plan to buy more colors. They will be my summer throw on shoes.

I was a little skeptical when ordering these because I have a very narrow foot & always need to adjust straps very tightly. I was pleasantly surprised that these fit perfectly! I love the look of these slides & they have better support than most waterproof slides.

I purchased these sandals for my daughter in black and she loves them. I’m buying other colors because she really loves the comfort of the shoe.

I looked at these for weeks, then finally made the purchase! I love how they look, & feel like despite other reviews, they are easy to keep on your feet. I like them Bc they have decent arch support, and can get wet. They are easy to throw on with anything. Like another reviewer said, I call them my “birken-crock”.

True to size as compared to my regular birks. Felt slightly narrow - may not work for people with wide feet. I bought them for outside/yard shoes and they fit the bill for that!

Not comfy at all - almost too lightweight and the support under the toes hit me in the wrong place and triggered nerve pain. Too bad because they look super cute!

super light weight, but the one strap is so close to the toe area, it won't stay on my foot.

you get what you pay for. I have worn Birks for years , these do not deserve to be called Birkenstocks. Horribly uncomfortable and kinda bizarre design. strap fits low across front of toes so doesnt feel secure. small bite points all over contacts points. Return. TY Zapppos

ordered my first pair of Alegrias, love them.

LOVE these Birkenstock’s! I am on the Varsity Swim team and need some support for my flat feet when I’m on deck. They are comfy and I love how my feet and calves feel after practice. YAY PLUS I love the bright pink color! Comfy and fun!!!

LOVED this sandal. I have owned several pairs of Birkenstocks over the past 15-20 years. I suffer from Plantar Fasciitis and had purchased there as a my "house shoes" since I need something with decent arch support, decently comfortable and if possible, won't break the bank. This checked all those boxes for me! This came through for me on the Birkenstock comfort and arch support which I have come to rely on for so many years. My only wish is that this came in more colors. The price point is amazing for a Birkenstock product! I loved this product so much I purchased TWO!

These are perfect for the pool or spa. I only wear Birkenstock sandals normally but I never want to be them wet so these totally solved the problem!

I'm only going to wear these as shower shoes, as I must have arch supports and deep heel cups every time I'm standing...so even in the shower. These are waterproof is why I wanted them. I've had them before & they work well for me. I wouldn't wear them out & about though, as I need a back strap for when walking, which this clearly doesn't have. If I were buying these to walk around in, I'd want more straps, and so that is why I only gave it 4 stars for style. As for comfort, I only gave it 4 stars there too b/c I'd like a high arch & a deeper heel cup. As for size, I ordered smaller than what I'd normally get, as these seem to run large for me.
I'd also recommend:
Birkenstock & Finn Comfort are all I recommend for arch support and deep heel cups

I got these as a suggestion from my orthopedist as house shoes since he did not want me walking barefoot or on flip flops around the house due to a heel spur. For house shoes they are perfect. Good support, easy to slip on. My only complaint was the color options as they are already a bit clunky to me so I would have preferred some more normal color options in case I ever wanted to leave the house in them but otherwise I recommend for house slippers.
