Customer Reviews Birkenstock Zermatt Slipper

Cutest slipper ever; fit was good, size was good. Unfortunately, the Birkie LABEL IS SEWN RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FOOT BED, OVER THE SHEARLING, which creates a lump in the middle of the arch. So, unless you have high arches (which I don't), I can't really recommend this slipper for comfort. Very odd choice in label placement...boo! I'm on the fence about keeping these.

I wanted to love this shoe but I couldn't. The reason was that this model once again is a narrow fit. I took the chance ant failed miserably. I am not sure what yahoo in Birkenstock design thought that most woman will fit a A or B width. Yeah right. Its like asking woman who wear a C cup or larger in a bra to fit in a A or B cup. The shoe is beautiful, loved the color, but having said that, this is a narrow width, so on a C width foot is it uncomfortably tight fit. I also have an average heel cup, and I find that the heel cup narrow and uncomfortable as well. I wish they would bring the Amsterdam style back, now that was a perfect shoe.

These are the first slipper I have worn in a long time that stay on my feet! It is difficult to find slippers that are narrow. The support is better than most slippers also. I love them!

These are perfect! The shearling take a weeks worth of wearing to settle in. I’m a 42N in all things Birkenstock and these didn’t disappoint. They are warm and they’re quiet to walk around the house. I just ordered a dark grey pair too. I’m afraid I won’t be able to find them again when I’m ready for a new pair next winter. The Blue is beautiful. Hope this helped.

Fits like a glove. I wear a 38 Narrow and the fit was perfect. The lining is cozy warm too.

This is a very nice slipper....for some folks. Read on! First of all the color is an amazing shade of blue. (There are more colors on the Birkenstock site though.) To me the width is not too narrow at all (as suggested in other reviews) with plenty of room in the toe box. And yes the label is sewn into the foot-bed, but this can be taken out using a simple seam ripper tool. But I also found the wool uppers itchy as other reviewers have mentioned. Some folks don't notice this at all but I am a bit sensitive to raw wool against my skin. But I did like the softness of the sheepskin liners. But I decided I could not wear these barefoot because of the itchiness. My other deal breaker was the sole. It is a little strange, sort of like sprayed rubber. If you look at a close-up of the bottom you will see lots of tiny holes indented in the bottom. If you only wear these inside then no worries. But any trek to the mailbox or whatever, and I envision these little holes getting filled up with dirt and debris. And they do not look like they would be easy to clean. This was another reason for me as to why they do not suit my needs. Otherwise is it a beautiful high quality slipper.

I don't have Narrow feet, so i took a gamble on these slippers which only had Narrow sizes available. Oh boy am I happy I did! Yes they are snug but the shearling would make any shoe snug (and will flatten out to your foot's shape with wear). I love how they hug my feet so snuggly - my toes are freeeee and don't need to grip when i walk. i can't even kick these slippers off my feet - i have never felt so supported by a house slipper! And they are CUTE.

As someone who has narrow feet, a rather prominent bunion on one foot, and high arches, I am a loyal, lifetime wearer of Birkenstocks. I ordered these slippers in my usual size and they fit perfectly. I do feel that there is not as much arch support as in my Birkenstock sandals but the shoes are still comfortable and perfect for someone who just wants to wear them around the house. The fact that they are incredibly warm on cold winter evenings is a bonus.

Oh, how I wanted to keep these. I love the way the look - don't love the way they feel. Heel cup is too small, even though width is fine. Wool is scratchy and I would need to wear socks all the time. Label is right under arch - what?? And although i like that the wool is snug enough so they don't flop around, they might be just a little too snug. Ordered the normal size I always wear in Birks so the lenght is good but the other issues mean they are going back. :-( Thank goodness for Zappos great return policy!

I love the color and how it looks on my foot. I wear a 42 and it fits well for the size. The foot bed is taking me a bit to get use to around the big toes. What I thought I’d get is a softer slipper. This definitely feels like a shoe which is likely how i’ll Be using it.

I have a very narrow foot and wear a half size, so finding slippers that actually fit is a problem. Although this slipper was expensive, I was hoping that since it came in narrow that I would like it, and I REALLY wanted to like it. Unfortunately, like some other reviewers have mentioned, having the brand tag sewn into the slipper right in the arch is really uncomfortable, especially if you like to wear your slippers without socks. So between the price and the comfort, or discomfort I should say, they were returned.

I found the wool upper to scratchy. I am allergic to wool but I didn't think it would effect me but it does.

These are the best slippers I have ever had. They are fluffy and warm, and they have the support you would expect from a Birkenstock. The latex bottoms are fine for stepping outside to get the mail or take out the trash. Oh, and the blue color is lovely!

So comfy! Slippers are soft, warm and supportive.

Beautiful quality, but still they weren’t narrow enough for me. My feet are narrow to super slim. so I am returning them. Shoot!

Shoes are great. Only complaint it the label in the middle of the foot bed. What were they thinking. I nearly returned because it drives me crazy, but am going to try and remove.

Only offered with the narrow footbed, so I ordered a size up. The fit was bad for my foot, the length was too long but still too narrow. If this was offered in the regular footbed I'd try them again. Not a good fit for those of us with wider feet. Too bad, it's a nice slipper.

I ordered these because they marked narrow in width. I returned them because they are certainly not narrow.

I ordered these because the Zappos site these Berkinstocks were narrow in width. They are certainly not narrow - definitely medium in width. So disappointed. Had to return.

Unfortunately, these run very wide. I have a narrow foot and hope these would fit. Even with socks they were to wide. Very disappointed as there are very few slippers who advertise they are narrow and was hoping these would fit.
