Customer Reviews Birkenstock Callan - Suede (Unisex)

Had to size up on this shoe. I normally wear a 41 narrow but had to order a 42 narrow and it fit fine !

Like the shoes though like any shoes needed to get comfortable that takes a few days

Somewhat difficult to get on. Once on feel great.

I love these! Thinking about getting a second pair. Would recommend a shoe horn.

I love these Birkis, they are so comfortable. They are a tad hard to put on, but once on that serves the purpose of the shoes sitting snugly on your heel. So no need to break them in. They are also very cute on the foot.

This is a beautiful shoe—especially for a Birkenstock! The color is a neutral fawn color and it felt comfortable in terms of size, but I have an outsized bunion. As I test walked on my carpets, I could feel the rubbing. So, need to return :(

These are perfect! I normally wear a 6.5 shoe and the 37 narrow fits just right...room for thin socks or barefoot. They are very comfortable and versatile. The look is a bit on the casual side but I can wear them just about anywhere.

I bought my usual size 37, and the taupe color. I loved this shoe in every way but decided to return because I just didn't need another casual shoe.

Usual excellent Birkenstock support and comfort. Navy suede is a great look but it's not a super-stylish loafer look. If you like the Birkenstock Gary, this is a good choice as a loafer.

Classic Birkenstock fit and comfort. If you like the sandals and are looking for the coverage of a shoe, these are a fine choice,

True to my regular Birk sandal size. Definitely not the exact same footbed as sandal but comfy and forming to my foot. Suede is stretching a bit with wear. Easier to get into and could take a thicker sock over time. Color is excellent dark blue.

Very comfortable shoes and look nice on my feet. EXTREMELY difficult to put on though and a tab on the heel area would have really helped. I did keep them though.

These shoes hurt the top of my toes. I wore them out for the day and it was quite painful. A little lg for my feet. Maybe half size too big

I loved both pairs of shoes but the side was too high and hit my ankle

I have high arches. Need a shoe horn to get my foot in.

I like the look of this shoe; unfortunately, the fit wasn’t right for me. The sides came up too high and snug, which makes wearing them barefoot too uncomfortable—definitely would get blisters below the ankle bone. But the snugness around the midfoot, where the elastic goring is placed, is too tight for me to wear socks. So . . . Sadly, I am returning. If you have a narrow foot with a lower arch, these will work for you. The cool, laidback style is just what I was looking for to wear with casual outfits—jeans, etc.

Nice slip on. Typically Birkenstock is too wide for me, but this came in the narrow size and it fits perfectly. I am still getting used to the hard cork sole though.

Once on the show felt great, unfortunately due to the design of the heel piece it was not easy to put on. The back of the shoe collapsed as I put my foot in, and then needed to awkwardly pull the heel section out from under my foot. It was enough of an issue that I chose to return the shoe.

I like Birkenstocks and I like the way this looked..........but it was really hard to get them on - the elastic insert didn't give much. After I finally got them on they felt too roomy in the toe area, which is usually a good thiing.

I don't know how the shoes fit because I couldn't get my foot in the shoe. The space for the foot is very small, especially if you have a higher arch. So disappointed.

Could hardly get them on with a shoe horn. The second try on was not good so I sent them back. I really like the looks of these shoe. Have had over 30 pairs of Birkenstock shoes but these were just to hard to get on.

Purchased 4 pairs of Birkenstock Gary last year, loved them. The Callan style were extremely hard to put on with a sock, also slipped in the heel, I believe due to no heel support. Returned them. Zappos is a great place to purchace shoes!

They looked cute, but I couldn't get them on my foot. I have a high arch and I was unable to slip them on. They were too tight and too short. I would advise at least half a size larger when ordering.

Could not get my foot into them! Even with a shoe horn, the heel was too stiff. Definitely NOT ‘slip ons.’
