Love this style of Birkenstock, however the navy blue is the same color as the black ones I already own. I can' tell them apart. Sadly they are going back.

Although I normally wear a size 9, I find that the 8 1/2 fits me to a t! So comfortable and they help to keep my feet and ankles aligned so that in turn helps my knees to hurt a little less.

Love this pink color! It’s pink, but a deep fuschia that is quite sharp and pairs well with so much. Extremely comfortable and as always thrilled with Birkenstock.

Slightly more narrow than the Arizona style but perfect otherwise?

These run true to size. I had a previous pair for about 5 years and they held up really well despite daily use in the summer. These look great and are comfortable, I expect them to last just as long.

The first pair I ordered were too big. I'm consistently a size 8. The conversion to European sizing was 39 on the Zappos site. I sent the 39 back (so easy to do that!) and ordered a 38. They're perfect.

The fit and size are spot on with my usual size. They are very comfortable and I get loads of compliments on the braided style. In short LOVE them.

I typically wear a 7.5 and ordered the 7/7.5. Fits perfectly. They were a little stiff first few wears but after breaking in they have molded to my foot and are extremely comfortable.

While these are regular width, they are more narrow than a regular in other styles, like Florida or Arizona. I normally can’t stand shoes with a post or strap between my toes. With these, I don’t even notice the post because the adjustable strap prevents my foot from sliding forward and hitting it. They have become my favorite sandals.

These fit perfect, got them to wear to our grand daughters out door wedding the summer, love the color! I only wear Birkenstock sandals, I have a narrow foot that is hard to fit and I need the arch support.

Love the look. The width was a tad bit narrow for regular width.

Although these Birkies fit like any others I have had, the piece that goes between the toes wasn't "breaking in" and felt stiff and uncomfortable. I then noticed that the particular piece was not leather like my other Birkie flip-flops. It is a piece of hard rubber connecting to the leather upper strap which will never soften to break in. Unfortunately, I am returning for a pair that has a leather strap between the toes.

I have a pair of Gizeh that I love, so I thought I would get a different color in the braided. I found the straps are much shorter (about an inch according to my measuring tape). In the end this means that they are tight on my wider foot (injured ankle is larger) The loosest hole is equivalent to between the 2nd and 3rd hole. I'm sure this will fit fine for most, but is not good for me. Also the leather itself does not seem like it is as thick or high quality as previous pairs I have had. The color and braid is cute.

I tried to Gizeh soft footbed but in metallic and decided to return them because of reviews saying metallic doesn't hold up. Ordered these and while I like the look alot and they felt more comfortable than most, the braided thong part came up too high and rubbed against the top of my foot. The other style without braiding did not. Back they go.

These are absolutely the cutest Birkenstocks I’ve ever bought. BUT - and it’s a huge but - the plastic between the toes makes them almost unwearable! I set them aside and the box got thrown out so I’m going to have to see what the return policy is on that, but if I can, I’ll be returning them. Cute shoes, but a huge miss in terms of comfort!
