Customer Reviews Birkenstock Madrid Torty Big Buckle

Very comfortable once I got them broken in. They are narrow though. I wish I would have gone a size up.

These are comfy slides. IMO, they are not the most fashionable, but the large tortoise shell buckle and almond color give these Birkenstock slides a bit more pizazz compared to the traditional ones. After doing a bit of research, “narrow” width for a Birkenstock slide/sandal is actually a medium (or B width here in the states). The “wide” width in Birkenstock sandals is for folks for traditionally wear a wide shoe size here in the states (a C/D) width. With that being said, I typically wear a 7.5/8 B in US ladies shoes and ordered a 38 in this style of Birkenstocks. I found my toes and heel to be sitting way too close to the front and back edges of the shoe and sized up to a 39 which is an 8/8.5 in Birkenstock. If you are between sizes, you may want to size up. Unfortunately, the shoes I ordered looked like someone else scuffed up and returned so I ended up purchasing from another retailer.

Like all Birkenstocks on me, I order a 38 Narrow. In US size I am between a 7.5-8. These fit like all other 38 Narrows I've ordered. The color and style is beautiful and very comfortable. The color is light so I don't see myself wearing them all the time because of dirt build up but I'm satisfied with them.

These are so pretty. Relieved that they are also super-comfortable on! Very lightweight. Can’t wait to wear these all spring. Tortoiseshell buckle adds just enough flair to fee special for everyday.

These are SO CUTE! The buckle is tortoise which is adorable. I'm hoping people do not buy these because I want to be the only one that wears them! But if you do, you will love them. They get 4 stars for comfort because I wish they had a softer foot-bed, but they are hard like all Birkenstocks.

So cute for Birkenstocks and wanted them to work but the strap is stiff and squeaky.

Hate that everyone else has them- but I still wear them all the time

My niece absolutely loves these! Couldn't find them even on Birkenstock site, and Zappos had them! Best Birthday!

So comfy!! Take a little breaking in, but then they are like slippers!!

Perfext

These are so cute, I was ecstatic to find them in my size! Comfort like a true Birkenstock.

I read the reviews and ordered up a size. I usually wear a 39 in Birkenstocks and ordered a 40. I love the style and tortoise shell big buckle.

perfect fit - great slide for everyday use. might get another pair!

Perfect and super cute! When I first slipped them on I was afraid the leather strap on the top was stiff and 'sharp', but I walked around for a few minutes inside and it softened right up. The buckle is SUPER adorable and gives a little more polish to Birks. :)

Be specific about your likes and dislikes. How was the fit and size? What does the material feel like? How awesome (or not) do you feel wearing them?

I love these shoes! They’re perfect for everyday casual wear!

I like the shoes but the color against my skin tone looked terrible so I exchanged for the leather ones. These are definitely not my favorite the footbed is very hard and the leather is stiff....but they are cute and I will wear them.

I love the color and I love the style so much I’m going to order more colors. I have a narrow foot and I had to use the last and tightest hole. A little worried that when the leather stretches out a bit I’ll need to make another hole.

These are so cute and summery. Love the light leather and the torty large buckle.

not as comfy as other birks, just don’t feel as stable on my feet, but super cute, kept them anyway

They are super cute and stylish. Birkenstock’s need to be broken in, so the comfort isn’t 100%, but the fit good. I expect they will become really comfortable with some wear

I really hate the look of entire toes hanging out the end of sandals. As a result, the only Birkenstock I’ve liked is the Mayari (the one with a toe ring)... until now. These are super cute with the big tortoiseshell buckle and cream leather. I tightened them to the last hole which solved the problem of the “toe” look. However, that made the strap rub a bit, but I’m sure it will soften a little with wear. I love the trendy, relaxed look of a stylish pair of Birkenstocks and these are certainly that!

I have owned Birkenstocks in the past so went with my normal size of 38 and it was a perfect fit all around (and I have wide feet). I really like the tortoise shell buckle. One thing though. The color online is not correct. The leather color is more ivory colored as you can see from the review pictures posted, there is no brown undertones. Zappos should correct the picture, if you look at the Arizona Torty Big Buckle, it shows the right color.

Looked used, didn’t come with any tags or receipt kind of weird.

Wanted these to fit. I’m always a 37N in Birkenstock but these were way too wide. Even if I punched more holes I wouldn’t be able to make the work. Birkenstock seems to cater to the wider foot and leaves the AA foot out cold often.
