This is a really cute shoe - much more feminine than the Boston. However, as soon as I put on the first shoe, I knew they were not going to work for me. The top has elastic under the the top, which ordinarily would be helpful in a fit. Unfortunately, where the elastic was sewn in was extremely rough and uncomfortable - even through socks. Some more work on the design is needed to make them comfortable. Would love to have this style but just can't. wear.

I love birenstocks but these didn't have the usual arch support of other styles. Disappointed with the fit and am returning.

These might be my new favorite Birkenstocks! They fit true to size and are soooo comfy. The style is cute and I have gotten so many compliments on them. I love having the comfort and support of the Birk traditional clog but in a cuter style. Love them!

I'm a professional educator and wanted something more stylish but still with Birkenstock support for wearing with dress pants, etc. to teach. I have a pair of Birk boots and a pair of sandals that I love, so wanted to try something for those in-between days. These are it! The arch is just a bit further forward than in my boots and sandals, but it's not uncomfortable. I like the lined footbed so it's not just the cork, especially when I decide to wear socks with these clogs. I originally ordered my same size as in boots and sandals, a 39, but they felt too long and too big. So I ordered a size down, 38. However, while they fit better width and height wise, they were just a half size too short and would ultimately have bothered my feet, so I stuck with my regular size 39 which give my feet more room to spread when walking. The main challenge will be not feeling like they are always falling off, my usual nitpick with clogs. But the buckle is functional and I can tighten them up a bit to help them stay on. I have very narrow feet, so was glad for the narrow option, but really could have used the fit of the 38 with the length of the 39! Oh well. They look great in person, and hopefully with regular care for the suede and cork, they'll last awhile.

Just adorable shoes. I ordered my regular Birkenstock size and they fit perfectly. My foot is on the wider side of regular and I have no issues. Super comfortable. I got the Tea Suede 2 and the color is perfect!

I bought 3 pairs of the Buckleys. I bought the taupe gray, then the black. When I shopped for the navy it was out of stock, but Zappos let me know it was back! I have a narrow foot with a high arch; too say these are perfect for me is an understatement. They are like walking in slippers that have support. I am an 8-8.5 in most shoes, and the 39 was marked for 8-8.5. Again the sizing was great.

I purchased the Buckley in Latte Cream, size 38. For me, its the perfect warm weather shoe for my multi-problem feet. Original soft footbed, wide toe-box and comfortable at the first wearing. I own lots of Birks, so I didn’t need any break-in time. The embossed leather and square toe really soften the look of this shoe and make it fun to wear. Best looking Birk I’ve purchased in years. Considering a second color.

I live in Birkenstocks and ordered my regular size (39 regular fit). I couldn’t even get the shoe on!! My daughter is the same shoe size but narrow, and they were narrow for her as well. I’m returning them.

I am new to wearing Birkenstocks, but decided to try a pair since these do run more to the narrow/medium width. I am anywhere from a size 9 to a 10 depending on the type of shoe. (dress shoes are a 9, sneakers are a 10, and some casual shoes end up being a 9.5). I ordered the 40 and the literally fit like a glove. Comfortable right out of the box, even though I know there is a break in period. These will definitely be a go to shoe for me in the fall and winter. I got the grey taupe and it's pretty much a nice neutral. Depending on how you style it, it will complement warm or cool colors nicely.

As soon as I put these on I was in love. No breaking in, they are perfect. I got the 9 regular, which is my normal size. My feet are wide but the regular are perfect.

The shoes are wonderful, the color is true, the Buckley's have great arch support, are super comfortable, and apparently very tasty? Tasty, yes, my grand pup chewed on the heel the very first day I had them. No worries, the damage is minimal and I still plan on getting a ton of wear out of them this year!

I have been wanting a closed toe Birkenstock for a while. These fit the bill and are amazing. I love how easy they are to slip on and that I can wear them all day without foot discomfort. They are not exactly beautiful, but I like that they can be worn with or without socks. Big fan. Worth the money.

PLEASE. PLEASE make these in a 43 (12 - 12.5 size) -- the 11s are just a touch tight in the toe area - my toes rub up against the lip of the footbed and afraid that will create blisters after walking a while. Have been searching for a comfortable clog for forever and these were ALMOST it! I see on the Birkenstock website that the shearling model will come in that size...but of course they are sold out already! Doesn't that tell you something Birkenstock/Zappos???There are a lot of us tall girls out here and our options are sadly very limited! The Narrow width for me was OK, I am usually a medium width.

These are so comfortable. I didn’t follow the Zappos sizing, but instead used the sizing chart from Birkenstock, and these fit great. They’re definitely narrower than other Birkenstock shoes, but for my average width feet, they’re great. I can wear them all day and they feel great and stay on my feet even when running around after my kids.

These are super-cute - I am a fool for a silver shoe and they did not disappoint. That said, I am an 8.5-9 and I always buy Birks in 38. The size chart here is WAY off.

I wanted to love these but they hurt the top of my feet so bad. Loosened the buckle (even undid the buckle) and they still hurt. I gave them to my niece and she loves them!

I went down to a 38 in this style which is 7-71/2. Usually wear 39( 8-81/2 )in other shoes. Very comfortable and lightweight. Love color. Good for spring and summer.

This is my favorite pair of Birkenstocks! The topstitching gives it a driving moc look. The footbed molds really well after wearing it for a week. Goes very well with joggers.

Love birks! Received them this morning right before work and threw them on. So awesome to know I can do that with this brand. These are basically my winter “AZ slides”. Wearing with socks so I can’t comment on the elastic rubbing but I can see how that would as it sits right at the top of my foot arch. But even barefoot I’m sure it won’t be an issue. I have wider feet so I tend to loosen the straps immediately anyways. These are definitely true to fit even as a narrow width and only two adjustment holes on the strap so if you have super narrow feet you may find these too loose. These fit just as my slide on sandals do so I’m a happy customer

Love the style! They’re comfortable, but don’t seem to have the contoured footbed that I remember from Birkenstock.

I love the look of these shoes, however the arch support was not what I'm used to from a Birkenstock shoe, I need excellent arch support, not just moderate arch support.

I think these shoes are going to be perfect! I have very problem feet and need good arch and metatarsal support. These Berks seems to fit the bill. I have never worn Berks before but from the minute I put them on, I had a good feeling that they are going to work for me. I need a cushy footbed and I was a little worried that they would be too hard, but they seem ok. So I think I am good to go!
