Customer Reviews Birkenstock Gizeh Eva Essentials

These shoes made terrible farting noises when I tried them on so I had to return. It's a bummer because I had no other issues with them.

Got these as an alternative to flip flops to wear to yoga but wear around the house a bit too. Only concerns are that they are a bit narrow and they can make your feet hot- probably due to the plastic material they’re made from.

Got these as an alternative to flip flops to wear to yoga but I end up wearing them around the house too. Comfortable but a little narrow and they do make your foot hotter than a typical flip flop - maybe due to the hard rubber material.

I wouldn't buy them again. I'm still trying to get used to them. They rub the side of my foot at the big toe in an uncomfortable way. I have the khaki, but they should be called "green".

I ordered size 38 for my daughter. She has multiple styles of Birkenstock in size 38. She has been wanting these. But once she put them on she decided not to keep them because they are very narrow and felt overall a bit small. I wear a size 37 in Birkenstock and tried them on and they fit good. They don’t seem big on me at all. Instead of returning I will just keep them for use around the pool.

I ended up returning these and going with the Arizona EVA. Because there's only the one strap at the top near your toes, when you walk the shoe makes that flip-flop sound. I wanted more a shoe and not a flip flop. I bought the Arizona EVA instead and it's great, I love it. As a vegan, I'm so happy that Birkenstock has made a vegan shoe. I also decided not to buy the shoe in white because I read other reviews that said that shoe got dirty very quickly.

Being a huge fan of Birkenstock, I had high hopes for these! Alas, they were not what I had hoped they would be. The strap was uncomfortable across my foot, and it's doubtful it would ever loosen up being quite stiff plastic like material. Of course returning was a breeze and I believe the shoe lived up to the Birkenstock reputation, however it just didn't work out for me.

Cute, but run small, I will need to exchange for one size larger than I usually get in Birkenstock.

The fit and size were fine but the material is so stiff, it pressed on the top of my foot uncomfortably. These are made from a hard material. Maybe it's what they came up with for durability, but this shoe hurt my feet and I've worn Birkenstocks for 25 years.

Too narrow for this Gizeh lovin’ gal. Painful to wear as it squeezed my big toe inward. Returning...

I love Birkentocks, but the placement of the single strap over the top of my foot hit it at a very uncomfortable spot. I ended up getting bruises on the tops of both my feet after wearing them around my house all day to test them out. I returned to get the basic arizona eva. But i loved the color and how they looked, they just didn't go with my particular feet!

I have very narrow, skinny feet. I ordered this shoe because it has an adjustable buckle. This might have worked except the underneath part of the buckle presses and rubs against the top of the foot and hurts. This is nothing more than a molded plastic shoe like a Croc knockoff. Not worthy of the Birkenstock brand name and not worth the price.

I realized that buying rubber Birkenstocks wouldn't be the same as the 'real' thing. But I had no idea how bad the quality would be. Very disappointing.

I sent these back as well. They are hard to keep on your feet bc the strap is so high up on your foot.

These shoes are super cute to look at and that’s about it. There is a reason they are 30$. They are extremely uncomfortable and have poor support. I wouldn’t even recommend wearing them outside.

These were much more uncomfortable than I had hoped for. I LIVE in my Birkenstocks all summer and wanted these for the pool. While they fit well, they cut into the top of my foot.

Unfortunately these are being returned. I thought the price was very surprising. They are all plastic, which would be good if you wanted them for sand shoes only. In that case they would be good. But that is not what I was ordering them for. The return was great, Zappos is wonderful to deal with! I always get off the phone in a happier mood the few times I have had to call!

I was hoping to find a comfy, durable, washable flip flop to wear around the house while doing housework. When I saw these I thought they would be perfect. Unfortunately, they were not. I’ve had several pairs of Birkenstocks over the years, but these do not feel or fit like Birks. The footbed is stiff and offers no cushion or support. My feet just don’t seem to fit the footbed correctly, especially in the toe area where the toe ridges are. The straps, though adjustable, are also stiff and if they are tight enough to keep the shoe on my feet they hurt. Sadly, I’ll be returning these.

Flimsy! The front of the shoe flipped under and I tripped and got injured. It needed to be thicker and stronger and never should be flimsy enough to fold under in the front. Stupid mistake by Birkenstock. (I am not clumsy; I have had many years of successful dance and gymnastics. This is a defect!) I wish I would have handled this sooner to get a proper refund but life got busy! FAULTY SHOES- unless they redesign them, I would not recommend them at all!

These are flimsy soles that can get caught and turn under the front of the shoe, causing a fall. I hope they make the soles more sturdy in future pairs. These are the worst!

These shoes felt like I was walking on a cheap piece of plastic. No give, no comfort, no support. A waste of money. Took on a trip and couldn't wear them.

These EVA soles are too thin and the Madrid style allows for the front to flip under the shoe causing someone to trip and fall. My daughter and I both experienced this. If you need EVA, get a different style Birkenstock messed this one up, bad planning on this one!

These are plastic Birkenstocks. Narrow, plastic birkenstocks. Fit is uncomfortable and blue color is ugly. My normal size felt small. Good luck if you buy these!

Wonderful !
