Customer Reviews Birkenstock Bakki

Could not get my foot into the bootie. Size 41-R It was impossible to slide my foot into this bootie. I wear Blundstones all the time with no problems getting my foot into them. For a change, I wanted to have a nice bootie that was not my Blundstone farm boots. This Birkenstock bootie is structured in such a way that anyone with a slightly high arch could not wear this boot. In person, they're outstanding quality and a beautiful perfect grey color and very soft suede, definitely worth the money if they fit you. But unfortunately, the tongue is sewn too far up and makes the opening very small. This is the wrong shoe for anyone with a somewhat high arch making it too narrow to get your foot into the boot.

I love this boot so much. I'm a big Birkenstock fan and was very excited when I saw that they released this shoe. They're almost like a cross between Uggs (with way better support) and Timberland boots (way lighter), and perfect for chillier weather. I'm a 39N in my Arizonas and Bostons, but ordered 39 regular width for this boot since I'd be wearing them with socks. The width hasn't been a problem at all. At first, I thought I might need to go a size up like some other reviewers mentioned, but after a few days of break in my foot has settled comfortably. I prefer wearing the boots without folding them down as they are in the pictures, but that's just my personal taste. So happy to maintain the comfort of Birkenstocks all through the winter.

I had to go up one size from my normal Birkenstock size but I LOVE these shoes! They feel GREAT on my feet!!!

Just yes. The look is super easy and rich, especially with leggings. Very warm. There is no fur under your foot, just a nice leather lined cork foot bed. I prefer the cuff up, covering the ankle. They're a little tight across top of the foot so probably not great for those with high arches, will probably relax over time, but quite loose at the heal. Wore for the first time all day with no problems. I got the black and the fur stained a few toes when I wore barefoot.

I am thrilled with this boot. Birkenstocks have been my comfort go-to shoe/sandal in my final years of teaching. In South Dakota I wore them 12 months of the year (sandals--without socks!), carrying them into work only if there was a lot of snow. My husband said my Birkenstocks seemed to be "mating" and--excuse the pun--he was right! Oh--back to the review! Now, I have Birkenstock BOOTS--yes--BOOTS--that are super stylish, with the Birkenstock arch and support. I bought the gray ones--so stinking cute--with a closed toe--haha. I can see wearing them with almost anything. Zappos has been patient--I believe this was my fourth attempt--and I had to wait for the boots to "come back in stock." So happy they did. Yay!

Fit was perfect! I wear size 9 and the size 40 fit perfect. The footbed is the great birkenstock feel. Faux fur is soft and warm. Excellentchoice! Get them...you will love them!

These are the best boots/booties. The fit is great, super cute, and very comfortable. They can be worn two ways, both look good. Has original footbed which is great. Would love to see another color, would buy more. 5 stars all around !!

I ordered these twice. The first pair, it felt like the arch was too far back. The second pair, the arch felt correct. These are Birkenstock’s, and will take a little time to break in. I am wearing them as winter slippers and short outside dashes, they are replacing a pair of dearly loved Uggs. Customer service at Zappos is awesome!

Fit is great! Warm and cozy. You can live in these. I liked them so much, I got them in brown & gray.

I have a high arch and was concerned based on others experience but I had no trouble getting them on. I do find the color more of a blue /gray. Cant wait to wear them.

I did as other reviewers suggested and went up a size when I ordered, which I tend to have to do when ordering boots anyway. These are exactly what I had looked for. I wanted a warm boot with shearling on the inside but with the excellent arch support Birkenstocks are known for. I also wanted a general go-to bootie for the winter which I would not have to put socks on.

These are so fun and fuzzy! Adore them! Wanted as soon as I saw them! Truth be told the fit is a little snug though. I have a high instep and use a shoe horn to slip these on my feet. I wear a true 41 narrow in Zappos' Birks but since this is a closed shoe the fit is def different. The support is true Birk and the shearling is plush - it's on the top and sides only...not against your sole. I would hesitate wearing them in snow and slush but for cold dry days ... game on!

I always wear a size 39 in Birkenstock. I had to go up to a 40 in this one. It could be the fur. It is a great shoe with the usual Birkenstock support. One improvement would be if the lace that runs around the shoe was adjustable. Don't be fooled, you can pull it tighter, but no by much.

The quality of this boot is good, I feel. It is on the wide side, but not unexpectedly so. The insert it cane with had the arch support in the wrong place for me, so I’ve substituted my own insert. The footbed is not the same as a sandal. I prefer them in the “up” position as down they look too much like slippers. They are slightly reminiscent of a 70s Hush Puppy style, but I do receive compliments on them. I’m having a foot issue (neuroma maybe?) and this is the most comfortable shoe that can handle the weather that I’ve found. I don’t even wear socks, the shearling is toasty.

I wanted these to work so badly. But, alas, they did not. I ordered one size larger than my clogs cuz I wanted to accommodate warm socks. Instead, they were too short. I went back to order a 40, but every color was out. I also realized they didn't feel as comfortable as my other Birks and thought maybe the heel on the boot made it feel uncomfortable (I prefer zero drop shoes). A question posed mentioned that they felt the arch was too far forward, and I realized that also contributed to my discomfort. I returned them and ended up ordering the men's Bartlett high top shoe which is also shearling lined. Heaven. I wore them all day and was warm and comfortable with my warm socks on. Yum. I love them.

The shoe would have been perfect for me had it fit. Well constructed, good looking. I wear Birk’s sandals constantly in Florida, but I’m in nYC for a while and needed a closed, warmer shoe. However, my normal size, 39, didn’t feel right. The instep was too far forward. Thanks to Zappos i was able to send them back without any problem. I tried size 38. The instep hit properly, but after a day of wearing them in the house, my toes hurt. I’m very reluctantly returning them. Too bad Birkenstock doesn’t make 1/2 sizes. Thanks, Zappos for your excellent customer service.

I have planters fasciitis and Birkenstock shoes are so perfect for my feet. However, these were not as cute as they looked to me in the photo. The same size I always buy fit me the same as always. I was concerned when I read other reviewers had trouble getting the boots on but that was fine. I had to unfold the folded material at the top of the heel of the shoe and pull them on my foot, then fold it back down the way I wanted it. It wasn't a problem and slid right on with a slight tug. Overall, the boots were fine and I would buy Birkenstocks from Zappos without a thought again.

I ordered these in the dark brown, and the shearling lining looks very dark in the photo, but it's actually the same color as the suede. They would be very comfortable if they fit me right, but I guess I'm between sizes, since the 7-7.5 equivalent was too large and I usually wear a 7. Mostly, I'm returning them because they felt clunky and boxy. The quality is excellent. Very soft and simple styling.

So wanted to love these boots as I have multiple pairs of Birk sandals tall boots clogs and slippers however they are going back. They just look too clunky and are not as comfortable as I was expecting. The fur is nice for the look and the warmth--maybe cute on someone else just not for me.

I live in my traditional birk sandals and absolutely LOVE the support and comfort I get from them, so I bought the boots thinking it would be a good fit as I love birks and have high arches. They look super cute, but offer minimal support- feet hurt and poor arch support after several wears. I am dissapointed as they are expensive and am in need for a supportive boot.

I love the support that I get from Birkenstocks and have several different styles already. I was excited about these boots for winter UNTIL I tried to put them on. These fit small, and are very narrow! I was disappointed and returned them.

Love the look, SO uncomfortable and not one ounce of warmth. The fuzzy boot part is just for decoration, there is not an ounce of comfort or warmth in these. So sad because I love the look, but they are stiff to get on and like standing on a concrete floor. These are going back.
