While the fit and size were all perfect. I was very disappointed with the color as represented on the website. The color was much lighter than depicted and the name of the shoe should be changed to accurately depict the color. It was more a LIGHT tobacco oil versus just tobacco oil. Tobacco suggests a much darker color.

Everything was just right. I've ordered this brand of sandals before and it was exactly the right size for me

Very happy with the new style and love the blue color. Leather is a bit stiff but I know it will soften up with a little wear.

These navy Franca sandals were a great addition to my spring and summer wardrobe. I wear a lot of navy during these seasons and often reach for these. I like the security of having multiple straps, but they look more feminine than some Birks because of their thinner straps. I normally wear a 7.5 and take a 38 in Birks. I can wear a narrow or regular width comfortably.

Birkenstock is a great brand with a very comfortable shoe. They are never cheap, but most other comfort brands cant compare.

I really love these sandals. I am a 7.5, and got the size 7-7.5, 38 narrow. I was worried they would be too narrow, but I read reviews that the regular width was more for men. I do have pretty normal sized feet I think. Anyway, the sandals are a perfect fit. Another review said the tobacco color is lighter in person, and I would agree, but it is a beautiful, neutral color. The sandals are very stiff, and I think it will take time to break them in. The footbed up by my toes is hard. I hope it softens up. I put on some light socks, and they were instantly more comfortable. I love the style, and know I will be wearing these with and without socks.

TTS. I made the mistake of ordering narrow because I thought these were unisex. The regulars fit perfectly, just like my other Birks (mayari)

Love these birks! The straps are
So stylish and allow for a great custom fit. I purchased sz 37 and am usually a 7-7.5 in shoes. My Arizonas are a sz 38 but all other birks I am a 37. The oiled tobacco is such a gorgeous color. These were comfy out of the box.

A variation on the classic Birkenstock, the straps are updated with the traditional support and comfort. The grey is a nice neutral for summer.

For someone with plantar fasciitis, I really on sandals like Birkenstocks in the summer weather, because of the way they mold to your feet and give good arch support. I'm always interested in some of the less clunky looking styles with the thinner straps and pretty colors. This lavender has a pretty sheen/sparkle to it and they will be a great addition to my wardrobe.

I love birkenstock shoes and sandles and have worn them for over 25 years. The "Franca" did not disappoint.
