Customer Reviews Birkenstock Papillio by Birkenstock Soley Wedge Sandal - Nubuck

Overall, I really like these sandals. My one issue is how the buckles across the front rub. I’ll have to figure out something to put on the backside of them, since it’s a rough feel that runs against your toes. But I think it’s worth fixing because I love the style and comfort overall. This would be a great thing for the company to address in future models.

I ordered the size of my Boston’s and Arizona’s, 38, sadly had to send these back, to large! Cute shoes, stylish, perfect with summer wardrobe

I usually wear a size 5 in ladies shoes. This European size 36 sandal fit more like a size 6 on my foot; the actual size was definitely larger than the stated size of 5-5.5.

There is nothing wrong with the style of the shoes but the pair I got have been worn. I will get another pair and hopefully it will be a new pair.

I really liked the style of these sandals, but the buckle was too irritating, and the strap didn't lay quite right on my feet. I have a high instep so this may not be a good fit others with the same.

I wanted to like the sandals. They're really cute, but the leather is so stiff and uncomfortable. It dug into the tops of my feet and hurt to walk in. I went with the Aetrex Lexa. The leather was much softer, and it had a more padded foot bed.

Who knew Birkenstock had a dress shoe that would be as comfortable as their flats and also provide support for my high arch? Brilliant for those special occasions

I tried with these but they just didn’t work with my plantar fasciitis like I thought they would.

Getting stylish shoes in narrow widths is a huge challenge. I loved these shoes and they fit really well but the sole was SO hard and the shoe itself was heavy on my feet. I’ve never liked Birkenstock styling but these were cute. disappointed that they didn’t work for me. I

I ordered narrow, but they were too wide. There is a buckle on the toe to tighten, but that made the shoe very uncomfortable. I guess Birks are not for me.

Actually I cannot review the fit of this shoe... I struggled and struggled to get the buckles undone so I could try them on - Couldn't unbuckle them - had my daughter come in and try -I just decided it wasn't worth the struggle and put them back into the box. So disappointed!

The footbed was incredibly comfortable and relatively narrow. The issue is with the buckles and the amount of leather they offer to adjust the buckle. I couldn't adjust the buckle at all across the right foot. Both buckles at the ankles are flimsy. Sadly, i'm returning.

Sadly, there is a little tiny piece of metal on the bottom of the buckle that rubs on the toe. In the summer, this will definitely cut up feet. Despite how cute these were, and how comfortable the cork was, I had to return.

Extremely wide, even though marked "Narrow"!

First of all, I appreciate Zappos letting me exchange/return this and similar shoes trying to find a suitable size/style. My recommended size from Zappos was a 38, and I eventually figured out my foot length (a true 7/7.5) looked silly in a 38 as the shoe was way too long in the heel. So, I ordered these in a 37 and though they are narrow, they are still plenty wide, maybe too wide for my average-sized food. I wore these around my house for a bit and decided to keep them, though they didn't feel quite right, as I had already returned/exchanged a few times and sort of felt guilty about that. Though the 37 footbed length is more suitable for my foot size, the rest of the shoe is just... off. The toe straps are either digging into my feet or just too loose. The ankle strap is the same, and doesn't lay quite right. The ridges that go below the toes is a little too forward in the shoe, forcing my foot to be a little more forward than it should be. Little details, but altogether they make for a pretty uncomfortable and annoying shoe! I hoped that the straps and the shoebed would break in after a few wears but they have not and I'm super disappointed at how they just don't work for me. If I could still return them, I would.

I am a petite person with average feet. These shoes rubbed into my skin so badly at the strap across the front of the foot and made me bleed. I will never wear them again.

The style and comfort would have been perfect, but the shoe doesn't fit correctly. There is an extra inch of shoe at the heel and the way the shoe holds the foot feels wrong - pushes your foot forward. Really bummed because the height and style is perfect for me. Hope they fix this shoe!

The leather on these was so stiff! I knew I would have sores on my feet if I kept them. Also the buckle was very hard to undo… the leather was wider than the buckle opening, and then there’s the stiffness of the leather that I mentioned.

Love! Comfortable, stylish, very flattering for short legs. Had to go to the cobbler to have an extra hole put in each ankle strap to make it wider, but that was no problem (and no cost). The round buckles look great but they are “fussy.” I need to do a bit of yoga to pull the straps through them. Love that I can wear platforms at age 60!

The cutest most comfortable sandal! Buy them!!

Amazing shoes. I have had mine for over a year and I get compliments all the time. They are extremely comfortable and supportive. I have the color that is somewhat an apricot color, and it is surprisingly neutral for many summer outfits.

I love Birkenstocks, and these did not disappoint with the fit and comfort of those I have had.

These are incredibly comfortable, and the perfect balance between casual and dressy.

This shoe is so comfortable and offers nice support for your arch. It's adjustable which is nice for keeping things it in place. The color looks nice for Summer.
