Customer Reviews Birkenstock Papillio by Birkenstock Ebba Wedge Bootie

Love, love these booties! I got them to replace an old pair from a different brand, which I loved, but now I love these more! They are the correct length, width and a great style. We’ll worth the $$ in my opinion.

Cute and stylish

I love these! This is like wearing the Mary by Papillio but it’s winter appropriate. The first 2 days I wore them without socks but the stitching on the top of the left boot cut me. So now I wear them with socks. Not a terrible issue since it IS a boot(ie). These are great with bootcut and narrow leg jeans. Every time I wear them I think I should see if they come in a brown, too.

Love them! Suuuuuuper comfortable out of the box.

On my 2nd pair. Love these - the most comfortable shoes! Wish they were a little les me “orthopedic” looking but overall great boots!

I have plantar fasciitis and these are truly amazing. I commute by train and subway 4 days a week and these are super comfortable and stylish. I am so happy with them. I wear a 8.5 and the 39 fits perfectly. I think I may purchase them in brown also.

These are super cute but stiff and not too comfortable. I will be returning.

Love these boots, have them in black also. True to size and classy looking!

Comfortable from the moment I slipped into these beauties. Worth every penny!

Style meets function - these shoes are classic Birkenstock with a classy twist and a heel.

Again, this brand does not disappoint! Has excellent arch support, soft leather and fits like a glove. Very comfortable, bought in both black and brown.

I wear a regular 37 in Birkenstock sandals and assumed the narrow width of these boots would not fit me-I was very wrong. These fit perfectly. I have a slightly wide foot (like C width), with my main issue in my toes. Literally every boot and shoe I have tried on ends up squishing my toes, and if I size up they flop around. So even though these are narrow, because the toe area is wider they fit great. If you have a truly wide foot they may be too snug, but average to slightly wide may fit. No issues putting them on as there is a zipper on the side. My only disappointment is that the coloring of the shoes is inconsistent. The first pair was nice and dark but was really scuffed up and dented and just overall not great looking so I reordered and these ones are much lighter and just not as nice looking. Not a deal breaker for me though considering this is the first boot in over two years that has fit comfortably!

I’ve been waiting for a boot from this brand bcz the sandals are so great. And I’m not disappointed! These are simple style, perfect proportions, sturdy, and not heavy/clunky. Immediately comfortable and ez to wear.

These are amazing! Wear for 10 hours standing on my feet and feel great! Fit true to size. Will definitely order another pair!

If you have a high in-step, order up a size. Other than that, great boot and will definitely become a staple in my wardrobe!

The shoes is comfortable when I tried it around the house. It has the Birkenstock look which is ok. I'm returning the shoes because the top is on the skin side and it hits right at my old fracture spot, which creates irritation.

Awesome Style & very comfortable (I found them just as easy to get on & off as any other boot, but if you have thicker ankles, this could be a miss as others have mentioned), sizing is suprisingly at least 1/2 size smaller than expected - so I returned. I wish they had worked for me, but since they were at least a 1/2 size too small in the 42, I decided against them. In a closed toe shoe, I wear about an 11. All my Danskos are 41 in open toe & 42 (with plenty of room for a winter sock) in a closed toe. In this Birk shoe, the arch support wasn't enough for me. when I put one of my arch support inserts in, then my foot aligned to fit better, but not quite enough to keep them. As another reviewer mentioned, she sized up in this closed toe style from her usual birk open toe size. There is not a 43 which I have never had wear in any european sized brand, so I do find this particular situation unusual & surprising coming from Birkenstock which has always seems generous in their sizing. This 42 fits me more like a 10.5 at best, with inadequate arch support, despite Birkenstock touting the great support their footbed provides. In a wedge/heel, I believe the support needs to be more. So if you wear a 42 in Danskos, or 10.5-11 in Stewart Weitzman, Keens, or any other shoe, this shoe could be hit or miss for you.

I was excited to actually buy a 5.5 narrow in what I thought would be a sure thing. However, I had to change out the insoles for a couple different ones to make them comfortable. The left Papillio insole divider hit the ball of my foot and really hurt. And with my own insoles after about thirty minutes of walking around the house, my toes fell a sleep. I hope there are a lot of small footed ladies out there that can make this a popular enough shoe that Birkenstock will continue to offer small sizes. Beautiful boot.

Shape and height of the wedge not good for my back or metetarsil footpad

I love the shoe. The width was too large for me.

I wear a US size 71/2 or 8 and these fit perfectly in an EU SIZE 38. I really want to love these shoes, but the top of the shoe around the leg literally rubbed my skin raw and I have relatively average size ankles/lower legs. The footbed felt great and the height of the platform felt perfect (I never wear heels). I’m hoping with wear and time, the leather will loosen and they will stop rubbing my skin off, because everything about this shoe, except that, is perfect! I can’t be the only one who experienced this. I can’t figure out why no one else mentioned this in their review.

Too small, couldn’t get boot on my left foot (has never happened before). I wear a 38 in Birkenstock sandals, thought a 39 would work for boots without socks but no luck, due to the small opening. My right foot felt like I was in a smooth leather slipper, like heaven! Now to find a size 40 somewhere else since Zappos doesn’t have it in stock.

Overall, the boot fit well and felt comfortable. It was, however, a little difficult to get on even thought there is a zipper. I had to use a shoehorn.

Once on the foot, these are comfortable. They are not easy to get on and off. I am debating on keeping them trusting that the leather will stretch a bit once I start wearing them.

These are super cute and I love the similar Mary Jane styled sandals....these were too tight in the ankle. The foot area felt perfect, but the ankle area was too tight for me. Sadly, they have to go back.
