There aren’t any reviews so I’ll be specific! I’m pretty sure I love these BUT the classic Birkenstock toe line (raised piece) doesn’t quite line up for me. So I’m not sure if they just run big (esp toe box area) and I need a shorter footbed or I need to train my foot to slide back a bit. After tightening the strap they were a little better. They’re really cute if you like that clog look. The charcoal color is nice & neutral. Overall, nice quality & I really want to wear them! Might try one size smaller just in case. I’m an 8.5 and ordered a 39. I’ll update if I change my mind ;)

These shoes are incredible and totally worth the investment. I ordered the same size that I wear in the Arizona soft footbed and they fit just right. My mom ordered a pair last year that I've borrowed and now that I have my own I intend to wear them very frequently.
A couple of things to be aware of: I can confirm that the charcoal suede does have a bit of an appearance of toe-scuffs, but I think it looks more like the shoes have character than that they have a defect. In addition, if you aren't careful while walking in these shoes, you can quickly roll your ankle. Take my advice, and just don't try and walk (or run!) too quickly while changing direction in these shoes.
Bottom line, though: I recommend these shoes 110%! They're super chic and extremely comfortable. Get'cha some!

These are a good modernization of the Birkenstock Boston clog. It gives some height that many of us short girls like. It's comfortable but so far I'm not thinking about getting another color. I have to wear it a bit longer before I invest in another pair. All in all I think they're nice and I'm glad I got them. I'm usually a 38 but in Birkenstocks I'm usually a 37. I forgot that and ordered a 38 first and had to exchange.

So, I can say that I am a 38 in all Birkenstock’s. However, with this style I had to get a 37. Zappos was so great to send the new size ASAP. These are comfy and fit great. I’m a massage therapist and I have plantar in both feet. I’m 100% in Birkenstock’s for the unforeseeable future. These are a must have!!! But choose your size accordingly.

I'm in LOVE! I read an earlier review and someone said they are totally worth the investment..... they absolutely are worth every penny! I have several jeans that were are just a smidge too long (I'm 5'3" ½) and now they will be perfect! I have like 5-6 pairs of flat classic 2 strap birk sandals (leather, suede, black, taupe, etc) .... I wear all them ALL the time. These feel as good or even better! I'm not a 'heal' girl but these being wedges are so totally comfy. I'm walking around the house in them now. Hehe!! I love the taupe color. I wear 39 and 40's. I have 39s that feel to snug and 40s that feel to loose at times but after reading reviews I knew I wanted these to be snug.
I choose the 39s and I'm so happy I did. They fit perfect!! Like a glove. You don't want any sliding around with a slide!! Haha! But seriously, I'm so grateful for the other reviews as at first I put a 40 in my cart and switched them out for 39. You can't go wrong with these beauties! Get 'em before they are gone!!!

I am a big fan of traditional Birkenstocks and wanted something a little less casual than my Arizonas, but with the same support and comfort. These fit the bill. They are a comfortable wedge heel that gives a little height, but nothing that will make your feet hurt. I bought the dark brown suede. I was a bit miffed because out of the box the suede looked scuffed. I think someone tried them on and returned them because the buckles were set to the smallest hole and you could see the imprint where the buckle once was from the “factory setting.” I live overseas so it’s just a pain to return things and the issues were minor enough for me to keep the shoes (plus Zappos no longer had my size.). Speaking of size, I am usually a 37 in Birkenstocks, but with these I ordered a 36 and they fit like a glove. I think a 37 would have been too big. In US sizing, I am a 6.5 medium. Overall great shoe. I just wish mine were pristine when they came out of the box.

My new favorite shoe! I can reach things on the tippy top shelves in grocery stores when I wear these out! ? One side was a smidge tight but I did the freezer trick to stretch it out and they slide on with ease now. No break in period needed. Looks great with skinny jeans. Just love them! ???

These are very comfortable shoes. I am a true size 8 and first ordered the size 39 but needed to return them for a size 38, which fit perfectly.

Fit and size normal, and design as picture. These are SO MUCH HEAVIER than I imagined though. The weight of the lower part of the shoe is off-putting, especially since the upper is suede, which is known to have a lot of give. They would stretch out in no time. In addition, I wouldn't look forward to wearing them at all. I was clomping around my home in them and I mean clomping! Ease and comfort are the reason for slide-on shoes in my world. They are going back.

I wanted to love these so badly, but I felt slightly unstable in them. While I often wear wedges to work and am on my feet for hours at a time in them, I could not feel sure that my ankle wouldn't roll in them, so they had to go back.

The most comfortable wedges I have ever worn. On my feet all day, and NO foot or back pain. Worth every cent!

Perfect fit. Once you know your size with Birkenstock it never changes (unless your feet do). My feet are very hard to fit - narrow, flat, bunion surgery many years ago, very narrow heal. These shoes are supple suede leather. easy to wear. perfect support. adorable with jeans, skirts, joggers. I will enjoy wearing them this fall.

These are shown as a narrow. THEY ARE NOT. They fit perfectly, and are an extremely comfortable wedge especially if you need a wider toe box. If you’re worried about size, choose a smaller size rather than larger. These can be worn with jeans to skirts. A great travel shoe; I love this brand by Birkenstock!!

Wonderful shoes. I know clogs seem a little dated but these are perfect. Will go cute with some fall dresses as well as leggings and large tops.

I absolutely love this clog! I bought it in both colors. I am 5’2” and am so glad to have a comfortable shoe like the Birkenstock, but you also get a heel. They feel amazing.

love these shoes so much, I had to purchase them in both colors ~ the comfort of a birkenstock with a heel.
