Customer Reviews Birkenstock Arizona Big Buckle - Nubuck Leather

I loved the pale pink color but am not wild about the new big buckle. I wish I could find them in pink with a regular buckle and a regular width (although the narrow is okay) and maybe the soft footbed. I have had a million pairs of Birks since the late '50's. I adore them for their comfort and arch and foot support.

I loved the fit of these. They are true to size. I ultimately returned because they were not the style and look I wanted. The colors were different then expected in real life compared to the photos.

I wanted very much to love these. I am generally a fan of Birkenstock sandals, in fact, wearing a pair right now. I loved the added difference of the Big Buckle, and especially the black sole. Unfortunately, I returned these as the foot bed is super hard and I did not find them as comfortable as typical Birks. The style is cute and unique.

These seemed to run small compared to other Birks. These will also take time to break in. These shoes were uncomfortable the first time I wore them, but after breaking them in they are better.

I have been eyeing these sandals for a while. I am very happy with my purchase. I have found while walking I have squeaking from my foot and the shoe. I think it will fix itself as the shoe is broken in.

The sandals fit well when I start wearing,but after an hour or so,, the buckle rubs a bit. The sandals look great for summer. I wear them with everything.

The sandal is well made. However, the straps are quite wide making them a little uncomfortable until they are substantially broken in. They do accommodate a narrow foot but the strap almost drags on the ground when it is buckled as tight as I need. Also, until they are worn in, the foot bed hits my big toe in an odd spot. And because the foot bed is molded, it is somewhat uncomfortable. With that said, they do offer good arch support. And wearing an 11N, my options are severely limited unfortunately.

Cute cute cute! If I had time to break them in, I might have kept them. I love Birkenstock sandals. I prefer the softer cushioned sole but I'm okay with the firm footbed. I wanted to keep them just because they are more stylish than the average Arizona. Unfortunately, on the left foot - which has a bunion... the hard leather of the front strap cuts in terribly even with a sock. I wanted these to wear on a trip to Europe where I expect to do a lot of walking. These won't work. If you're waiting on the anthracite crocodile leather in a 40, they're on their way back to Zappos.

I really wanted to like this style. It looks great! But the buckle seems to be made of plastic. I put several magnets next to the buckle and it's not any kind of iron. Also, I've had a chance to try several styles on now, and I've decided the suede ones work best for me because the leather is soft and doesn't bite into my skin on top of my foot in back of my toes. These really are pretty, however. The color is lovely, and the leather is nice leather. Not as comfortable as I'd thought they'd be, and the plastic buckle turned me off. Why do they charge $15 extra for a "big buckle" that's plastic? I returned them, but I may eventually be persuaded to try them again because they are pretty.

Super, super cute Birkenstock! This is probably why they're sold out in many other places. However, they only come in Narrow which was way too narrow for me. So, unfortunately they're going back.

I wear a woman's size 37 in Mayari. I never owned Arizona and was surprised to find that these run a little shorter and narrower.

felt too wide. Tried wearing to see if it could work as I have other Birkenstocks but it is not good.

I am a vionic person. The straps by the toe rubbed a blister in less than half an hour.

These have absolutely no give in the footbed. It’s like walking on wood planks. I love Birkenstock, and have worn them for decades. These seem very different from my other Birks. I love the pink leather, and those big gold buckles. If I could have made them work, I would have kept them.

Too narrow, not enough birkenstocks are avaliable in the wider width unfortunately.

Strap across top was stiff and not at all soft making it uncomfortable. Thus the return.

Much lower quality than the Birkenstocks I bought in 2016. The buckles look really cheap and the leather is really rough. I’m returning and getting Mephistos.

They are ok. A little. Need to wear more to determine comfort. A little stiff

The size and width was perfect however the wide buckle rubbed my toes on both left and right. I guess wide big buckles are not for me.

I wanted to love this (black oiled with silver buckles; the part your foot goes on is black)), and the description said it was for narrow to normal width. However, it hit me on the side of my foot, so sadly these have to go back. FYI I also ordered the black oiled with gold buckles where the part that your foot goes on is cork / cork colored, and that one fit me just fine, and I intend to keep the one with the gold buckles. I'm not sure if it's because of the different parts where your foot goes or if it's just variation of the shoes.

It was very large much larger than the other pair I ordered although they were the same size.

I returned the shoes only because they were obviously returned by someone else. I reordered and hope they don’t look used.

Feet slipped forward in shoe.
