Customer Reviews Birkenstock Arizona Essentials

Love these! Super cute and extremely comfortable. For some reason though, the green/khaki runs almost a full size smaller than the black. All my Birkenstock are size 40, but for some reason had to order this color in a 41. Not sure if they are mismatched but I had 2 separate pairs marked 40 that ran small. Zappos amazing customer service is like no other!

the narrow was still too wide for my narrow foot.... Had to return

I was very excited about finding these shoes in a narrow that I can wear working in my garden that are washable. The shoes appear to fit, however, they hurt when I walk in them. I only wear them from my lanai to the street to get mail, go down steps to our pool and in the garden. I decided to move the clasp to one hole upwards for my narrow feet and that helps somewhat. But, there is this round plastic knob--don't know how to describe it--but it is under the bottom strap and it bothers my tender feet! I am hoping that the shoes will soften up with wear as leather shoes do but I am not holding my breath! I am 77 years young so my skin is thinner. Might not be an issue for a younger person.

Very comfortable. The arch support makes them ideal for work from home.

A Zappos agent helped me find these sandals. I was looking for something to wear in my garden. These sandals can get muddy, washes easily and are perfect for my need! I have a narrow foot but was able to adjust the straps so they fit perfectly. I wear them not only in my garden but when I am outside on my lanai (deck) or walking to mailbox.

I have numerous foot issues (flat feet, bunions, hallux rigidus) and I love the Birkenstock cork sole. I have a variety of colors of Birkenstock Giza sandals because the Arizona style makes my feet look really wide. However, I wanted a slip-on style and plastic construction to use for camping and campground showers. These are great for that. The plastic is not as supportive and comfortable as the cork sole, but for camping, beach, and pool, these are excellent.

Birkenstocks, are well, Birkenstocks, but they have a certain cachet to them these days and they are comfortable and cute, and my daughter wears them and she is very groovy, and now I wear them and I am not, but you understand, they are good for everyone!

I’m a 7.5 medium in all shoes and bought a 37 & 38 narrow. The 38 fit perfect in these rubber sandals. I’m a 37 in the leather ones though. I think the leather sandals run bigger. These are great for the price and they look like my leather ones. Love the all black look of them.

Second pair! True to size. Wear great for summer. Can walk forever and clean easily.

I always wear a 40 in Birkenstocks and this was like all the other 40's. I got this shoe to wear to the pool and into public showers. I have a narrow foot and get the narrow. The two buckles are great for me. I can make the fit tighter. I am very happy with my purchase.

Second pair! Slide into before I walk on floors due to plantar fasciitis and walk miles outside and so comfortable.

these are my first Birk's so I read a lot of reviews re: sizing. I typically wear 7.5 in most shoes. I ordered 37 & 38 narrow. The 38's were perfect for me. Returned the 37's without opening the box. Bought these to wear around the house. Barefoot on hard floors doesn't work for me anymore ( mild Morton's neuroma). these are perfect for my needs. Maybe I'll venture into some real ones next round. These are EVA(plastic)

I love these! I purchased the white earlier this year and wear them all the time. I bought the black now as well and they are very chic, go with everything and plan on being in them year round! Also, with Birkenstock’s I’ve found that it’s best to order a narrow. My feet aren’t narrow but I think they fit better and don’t look as bulky.

This is my first pair of birks so I may just not be used to the model and fit of the shoe but I’m still it sure if maybe I should have gotten a half size lower. Sometimes they seem like a perfect fit while other days I feel they could be a bit more snug. Otherwise, great shoe! No complaints in comfort.

These are soooo comfy!

Fit is just a tad too big, I think maybe the next size smaller would be too small. They work, they’re still comfortable but they are just a little bigger than the regular Birks

Great fit great shoe!

Love these sandals! Exactly what I needed for beach days. They are not black. It’s a dark metallic grey which I love. They are light weight, easy to clean, and so comfy. No blisters, which I get easily and no break in time. Highly recommend!

Great style super light we love the color will definitely buy in other colors!

Perfect shoes for the beach!

Super comfy but order a size or 2 smaller. These run VERY big!

I'm usually a true 8.5, so I got the size 8-8.5, but it felt a little small. I went a size up and it fit perfectly. I ordered the narrow, and I have very narrow feet and these are right on the edge of being too wide for me (on the tightest setting), but they are so easy and cute, so I'm keeping them.

Super comfortable and fit true to the Birkenstock size guide. I have narrow feet and I’m so happy that they have narrow width available because these are some of the only sandals I’ve ever had that haven’t been falling off with each step. They stretch a little after use, which is fine as long as you weren’t already on the tightest setting.

I love this style but this pair was well over a half-inch shorter that my existing ones. I wonder if this particular pair was mis-sized or if Birkenstock has changed its sizing over the past year. I love the plastic ones and will be searching for them in the next size up.

Love the shoes! Wanted them last summer but they were sold out everywhere. I’m a solid 7.5 and I already had another pair of Birks so I ordered a 38. They were too long so I ordered the 37 and surprisingly they fit perfect. I think they will be prefect for this summer even if the pools don’t open around here!!
