Customer Reviews Birkenstock Bend - Leather (Unisex)

I like the look and it’s just what I need for work, however, I ordered exactly the same size of my Birkenstock sandals and these sneakers are too small. The top of my toes are up against the leather upper.

Aside from not being wide enough they were perfect. Not a typical wide for Birkenstock. My Arizona sandals are about 1” wider at the toe so these were just too tight.

I wore these one time. They rubbed the back of my heel and were not comfortable at all. Cute shoe but don’t be fooled by the Birkenstock brand.

Felt very stiff and not comfortable, at least not the comfort I'm accustomed to with my Birkenstock sandals, but I did think these were better than the QO Professionl Collection .

the description of the shoe said it was a narrow. it showed up and it said the width was an E which I think is wide. the shoe felt loose. they may have just sent the wrong size, but i decided over all that I did not like the shoe after all

EXTREMELY stiff making them uncomfortable

The foot bed on these shoes seemed uneven, making the shoes very uncomfortable. I tried to order another pair; however, my size was no longer available.

Surprisingly uncomfortable. Rubbed the top of my foot

I love Birkenstocks and live in them, but these were so uncomfortable, tight, narrow and so high at the back of the heel they rubbed a blister (through a sock) within the first five minutes. Going back.

I bought this shoe in black and brown. I had to return the brown pair because the right shoe was different from the left shoe and I couldn't stand it. Oh well. They lost that sale...

All good.

low heal doesn't hold foot well in place

The shoe fit but not flexible enough in the middle.

Materials were good and the structure was good. I have a very narrow foot and have a very difficult time getting shoes to fit properly.

These fit fine size-wise, but there is a raised portion in the middle of the footbed that I found to be uncomfortable. Which makes me sad since they are really cute!

I loved the style but the cork sole is extremely hard and the shoe is quite rigid and not flexible and they didn't feel as though they would be comfortable for very long walks. Also the heel was too wide even though I chose the narrow width and slipped as I walked. I have had many pairs of Birkenstock sandals which always fit well and were comfortable so these shoes were a disappointment.

too wide

The brown leather was soft and nice. The thick soles and footbed were supportive & comfortable. The problem was, the whole shoe was a little too big. I usually wear a 40 in Birkenstock, which is size 9. The size 40 was listed as 9-9.5 and the next size down was 8-8.5 which would probably have been too small. This style needs to accommodate half sizes!

Wear 39 birkies in sandals. Thought I would try the "athletic shoes". The footbed is great, the shoe toe box is way small.

I ordered two pairs but my normal Birkenstock size fits. I ordered two colors and the one that is too big (black) is much cuter. The white are not super flattering - and my feet are a 36 so they look like little boxes.

I finally ordered these as I was wanting a white sneaker. I don't like the toe shape and they were super stiff when walking. They just didn't look or feel right for me. I'm a fan of the Arizona sandals so I thought they great, the same comfort...but I was disappointed in the look when I got them in person and just felt uncomfortable.

The arch support was in the wrong spot for me. For me anyway, they didn't fit exactly like my Floridas.

I liked the style. Unfortunately, I had to return the shoes because the shoes were way too wide even though I ordered a narrow size.

Generally love Birkenstocks and find them very comfortable. These shoes are well made but are torture on my feet. Such a disappointing purchase.

It was a big big and then looked clunky
