I can order any Birkenstock in size 36 (except for Birkenstock shoes I need a size large) and I don't have to worry about the fit. They all fit me perfectly.
Wish other shoe companies would go to EU sizing. EU sizing is much more reliable.

long time Birkenstock wearer, first time with this Franca style. After developing big toe joint pain, I've been wary of shoes or sandals that go over the big toe joint/bunion area, but very happy to report these sandals have felt great from day one! Remember you can adjust all three straps for best comfortable fit. Now just crossing fingers for more colors available in my size (and on sale, too).
I'd also recommend:
saucony, new balance

Perfect fit as expected. I bought two pairs original and soft bed, and after trying them on returned the soft bed although it was very comfortable too. Excellent sandals, straps are adjustable. Awesome price on sale. Recommend.

The fit is as expected with Birkenstock products. Felt true to size and width.

I’ve had different styles of Birkenstocks before so I knew my size but sometimes they can still fit differently from style to style. These were true to size and I just LOVE the style and I also LOVE the deal I got! Thank you, Zappos!

I have worn a 39 for years perfectly; apparently this style is too narrow

Love the Franca! I’ve been a Birkenstock wearer for 20 years and these do not disappoint. I have foot issues and being able to adjust all 3 straps to fit is a game changer for me. I wear a women’s size 9 B. These are a “regular wide” and they fit like a glove. I bought both the “pinkish” and “teal” colors. They are vibrant! The pinkish one is more like a deep salmon color. Very pretty!
If you like Birks you can’t go wrong with the Franca. Yes, I recommend this shoe!

I originally ordered a 41 but had to size up. I have little experience with non-us sizing, normally wear a 10.5 in most shoes. Love the arch support!

I got my typical Birkenstock size 37 (I’m 7.5 usually) and they fit perfectly. I already own the Franca in another color, but I couldn’t resist the Graceful Jasper color. It’s really pretty!

These sandals are great. I'd been looking for a sandal to replace a pair of Keen Waimea. The Birks aren't quite the same as I can't wash them/wear them to the pool, but they are extremely comfortable and easy to slip on and off, as well as nice looking.
I wore Birkenstock sandals for many years, many years ago and am glad to find that the quality is still top-notch.

Very cute purple. I wasn't a fan of 3 buckles so I returned them. However they fit great and were comfortable.

I have wide feet which can be hard to fit. The straps are in the perfect place for comfort. The color has received many compliments!

My first pair of Birkenstocks, I wasn't sure how I'd like them and hesitant since I am often between sizes for European shoe sizes. These are comfortable, well made, and a 38 feels just right for my 8/8.5 US sized-feet. The criss-cross straps feel a bit more stylish and feminine than other Birks I've seen. I love the turquoise color. I look forward to a happy shoe relationship!

I love these Birks but they are too long. I have a pair of 36 which fit much smaller. Don't understand why these would be so much bigger.
