I did not like the white lining on top of the foot bed. It squeaked as I walked. I prefer the traditional Birkenstock liner. Too bad because I liked the style a lot!

Wanted to love them-they are very cute- but leather straps are so stiff -I know they will take a long time to soften up- so I returned them

Would give 5 stars across the board, BUT this pair arrived with a significant scuff mark on the buckle. I love all of my Birkenstocks, they are the most comfortable shoe ever and I was really looking forward to these pink big buckle sandals. Sooooo disappointed. ??

I love Birkenstock, have bought many pair, and will continue to buy them. But... these were awful. The leather was not the quality of normal Birkenstock’s and the straps were extremely stiff and sharp on the edges. Additionally, the buckles looked so cheap! I could have sworn they were plastic.

These Birkenstocks are not like any of the many Birks I've owned and loved. They were very narrow without the wider toe box. They also had a plastic type footbed instead of the usual leather. The footbed did not have the comfort or fit of all my other Birks. It did not come anywhere near the support or fit. I was so very disappointed in these. I hope to find some true Birks soon with the wide buckles.

I love the style of this shoe and having to send them back made me very sad but even on the last hole, the shoes were too narrow . I could have added extra holes (the straps are long enough) but I didn’t want to experiment on $150 shoes and not be able to return them. I do have full feet and a high arch but they aren’t particularly wide so the traditional Arizona even on the Narrow width fit fine. Like a few others, having only the more feminine styles in narrow only is a bit of a bummer.

They are so comfortable, and I love the “big buckle” look. I’ve had these quite a while now, and they’ve held up very well. Normally when my feet hurt, I want to take off my shoes. Now, when my feet hurt, I want to put on my birks! They’re THAT comfortable. I’m sold on Birkenstocks, I’ll probably never NOT own at least one pair!

I usually can only wear the Myari in Birdenstock because the 2 strap sandals tend to be too large on my feet. These sandals, however, do fit me despite the large strap and buckes. I thought the large buckles would end up being overwhelming on smaller feet, but they are not. the look is classy and dressier. This leather is stiff at first but loosens up quickly, so do not let that deter you. As always, in Birkenstock, I always am a full size and a half smaller than my normal size. My normal size is 8.5 and I always purchase a size 38 EU (or size 7 USA) in Birkenstock. Perfect fit with still some length available.

I purchased these sandals for my daughter. She felt the arch didn't fit at the right spot and was uncomfortable.

Love the big buckle style. Shoes are very comfortable. Was surprised that I needed a narrow since I usually have too wide a foot for women's sandals

I have many pairs of Birkinstocks and these were out of the box my absolute favorite. The leather is a teensy bit stiff at first, but that goes away quickly and there is something weirdly magical about the smooth leather footbed on this particular model. They instantly mold to your feet and feel glorious in a way that the brushed footbed just doesn't. I was concerned that they would look silly with the huge buckles, but they're kind of awesome. I was concerned because everywhere I saw them in store, it was only the narrow version that was offered (which probably would have been ok), but the regular is best for warm days. The antique cognac color looks great with just about any skin color!

Wearing an 11 1/2 shoe is very challenging. They are so few stylish shoes that fit. These are comfortable and have style.

I love these I now have a pair in black and white. I got narrow as I heard they ran wide and they are perfect. Love the big buckles and they are not plastic like someone else said in a review.

Really nice looking, basically dress up Birks :-) Comfortable out of the box but not as soft as the "soft footbed" Birks but still great. Size as you would normally wear.

These Birkenstocks fit perfectly from the moment I put them on. And they are comfortable too. No breaking in period needed for me. I have wide feet and these are not too narrow. I also have high arches, and support is fantastic ( I get stinging pain in my leg when I don’t have enough support. I can wear these all day and no pain or foot soreness.

Compared these big buckle black Arizona size 41 Narrow to the Original black piled leather Arizona 40. Kept the big buckle version bc 1. Black leather footbed and big buckles have a more modern look perfect for late summer/fall 2. Although Narrow this model felt roomier than original model 3. I wear 9.5 shoes and size 41 was better size for my narrow foot

Love these sandals. I bought a pair of black big buckles last year and fell in love. I get complements on them because they are so adorable. I wear 7.5 in most brands. My feet are slightly narrow. I bought size 38 Narrow in these.
