Customer Reviews Birkenstock Bend - Leather (Unisex)

These are great looking shoes from Birkenstock! This is my second pair. Love them!

My normal size is 9 1/2 narrow. Had to return them and ordered a10 narrow. They fit fine.

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'm a long time Birkenstock wearer, and these Bend sneakers fit as expected. There are many Birks on the market now, that only come in narrow. I'm happy to have found these stylish sneakers in the regular width which fits my wide foot with bunions very comfortably. As expected. And as always, Zappos has terrific customer service, which is why I keep coming back to shop here.

I have looked for close toed Birkenstock for a long time. I’m so glad I finally found these. They are cute and give great support.

I love Birkenstock. I have problems with my feet and they help soothe them. Your company ships fast and is very easy to order from!! Thank you

I was looking for a tie leather tennis in Birks and found these. For me they are the cat’s meow. I wear a 41R. Can’t wear the new med/narrow b/c the heel is to narrow. I purchased the 41R which is my regular size and they are awesome. I can even wear socks in them. The comfort it off the charts. I first purchased the suede. They are heavier and very durable. I wore them in the fall winter walking my dog. I the purchased the white and black. These are lighter but just as wonderful. I have a C width and the fit with socks is great.

Love the shoe, super comfy but runs a little big. I'm a true 9, ordered size 40 narrow, I will exchange for 39 narrow, hopefully it'll fit!

I need a tennis shoe for ankle support so this is the first Birks I've found that come in a good looking tennis shoe.

Love Birkenstock sandals so was very excited to try the shoes and was not disappointed. Very comfortable, got same size I always get in Birkenstock and was true to size. Definitely my new everyday shoe.

I was scared that they would look huge on my feet but they do not. They actually make them look smaller. I've been looking for a Birk Tennis Shoe and this shoe is the best.

Love the white sneaker look. Perfect fit with same size as my Birkenstock sandals. Enough wiggle room for toes.

You get what you pay for, this shoe is well made. I received it today, no break in time was needed, wore for 4hrs running errands. Please keep this model, only offer more colors. Thanks Birkenstock

I really debated about buying these because of the price, but I'm so glad I bought them. I worried that the wide would look huge, but it really doesn't, it's actually super cute. So happy to have a casual sneaker that makes your foot feel awesome.

I am so glad that I invested in these shoes. they are the perfect tennis shoe for me (plantar faschiitis) and I foresee wearing them often!!

What a nice looking and versatile work shoe. Not much of a walking shoe though, I can feel the ground. Even putting in my arch supports it might not have enough support unless it's just for an office appearance. Dresses up so nice. Absolutely love the roomie toebox good job Birkenstock!

Really good. I only returned because they don’t work with my injured ankle. Maybe next summer…

Great width for wide feet. Comfortable, but not as stylish as needed. Also delivered with scuffs on the sides of the white rubber, so I'm not sure if I got a previous return or if the black leather rubs off easily.

The style isn't exactly as I was looking for and honestly I didn't want to like them BUT I love the comfort of these shoes. I have RA so shoes that make me forget I'm wearing shoes and cause me to be unaware of my feet all day are rare. I am so glad now that I stumbled upon them as I was looking for simple white walking shoes. The leather is stiffer than typical leather sneakers but still very comfortable. I do hope I don't have any problems with the sole cracking as I read in a few reviews because now I don't want to be without them. I would recommend you give them a try if you're considering them. I'm not typically a black sneaker fan but may order those too.

these just aren't that comfortable.

I thought I had wider feet, but the narrow version fit me best.

These shoes would have been perfect except for how the shoe bends when walking. It hurt within only a few steps. Wearing them any longer would have left bruises.

cut too low in back, rubs heel

Cute shoes. Just much to wide.

Since the shoe's width was described as narrow I was concerned that it wouldn't fit because my feet are on a little bit of the wild side. But there is lots of room for my toes. The arch support does not feel the same as the Arizona sandals so I'm wondering if they will actually conform to my feet as good as the sandals have. I have very high and long arches. The shoes feel pretty comfortable right off the bat, not as cushy as the soft bed Arizona's I bought but there's no discomfort. After eight hours of wearing them the first day I did want take them off just because they felt harder than I'm used to in a tennis shoe. I believe that will change the more I wear them. I am somewhat disappointed that the leather and the sole are not the same color. The leather is a pretty bright white and the sole is more off-white but that's not a dealbreaker for me. I'm really looking forward to having Birkenstock support throughout the non-sandal season in the PNW with a shoe that fairly looks sharp.
