One of the most comfortable shoes I've ever had on my feet, right out of the box! It was true to size for me, I wear a 7.5 and ordered a size 38 and they are a perfect fit. This is my new favorite Birk!

I love Birkenstocks and have owned a pair since high school. This is the first time purchasing something other than the classic 'Arizona' style and I love them! Very comfortable and true to size (measure your feet without socks!) and with the thinner straps, these are a little dressier than the classics.

I've had my birks for 3 weeks now and they're comfortably broken in. At first, you only want to wear them for a couple hours at a time, but it doesn't take long to break them in. Now, i want to wear them everywhere. I'll most likely live in these this summer. I purchased them because i live in the mountains and sometimes it's nice to have a simple summer shoe that provides just a little more protection than a flip flop (And believe me, I'm a flip flop lover). Because it wraps up in front of your toe and behind your heel, it just seems to keep pebbles and such from getting under your foot. A plus in this part of the country where there's gravel roads/trails/driveways everywhere. I gave them a 3 star in style simply because they do make your feet look wide and might not be the cutest shoe out there....but to me, they're perfect.

While I prefer the thong style, I already have two pair so I thought I'd give these a try. Very comfortable without looking extremely "hippie". My feet need an everyday comfortable sandal and Birkenstock's fit the bill. I have also traveled extensively in Birkenstock's with no foot pain or injury (which has happened in the past with bad shoes).

So far I am a big fan of these shoes. At first when I put them on, the strap between my big toe and second toe seems to rub in a weird way, but after just a few minutes of wearing them around the house no problem. I bought these and the Gizeh, and decided I liked the stye of these more. I got the Antique Lace, which is like a pearly white. I think they will be great with skirts and dresses. I like that I can just slip them on, but have much more support and stability than a flip flop. I think the buckle over the center of the foot really helps to make the shoe feel secure on my foot. I wear a size 6 shoe, but in the past I have always gotten a size 36 in Birkenstocks. I initially ordered a 36, but there was zero room between my toes and the end of the shoe and my heels at the other end (Birkenstock recommends a 1/4 inch), so I returned them for a 37 and they fit perfectly. Also, I have a pretty average width foot and the regulars are a good width for me. I do have all the buckles on the last hole, and there is a bit of room, but I don't think there is room on the sides of my foot for a narrower width. I will just go get some extra holes punched if I feel I need the buckles to be tighter.

These were my first pair of birkenstocks, so i was a little concerned if they would be worth the price. They were so worth it! The arch support is great and the width is just right. If you have narrow feet however i would recommend getting the narrow width, they are pretty wide.

Love Birkenstocks! I bought my first pair seven years ago, wear them all the time, and they still look and feel great. I bought these for a recent trip to Disney World where I knew I'd be on my feet a lot and would need something supportive --- and cute! The shimmer in the color gives the shoe a feminine touch. Love!

I purchased a size 38 (I'm usually a 7.5 US) and they fit great! At first I thought that they might be too big but once I adjusted the straps (there are two with buckles), they feel snug enough and my foot is secure. I was looking for a versatile sandal to take on a summer trip to Europe for lots of walking and I think I found a winner! The silver isn't too "blingy" and looks great with many color combinations. Also, the straps make it easy to slip on but are such that your foot feels secure and won't go sliding like in a flip flop. I was worried about break-in time - it took one day for my Birks to feel like old friends:-)

I am a Birkenstock girl from way back! This was, however, my first pair with the toe loop and my first pair in narrow with. I have a narrow to average width foot, and I found that these fit well on my foot. Less "extra" footbed showing around my foot, which I like. The toe loop only took a little getting used to and then I forgot about it. As always, the support is fantastic! I purchased these in the golden brown color (I wanted the toffee color, but there is no narrow in that color). This color has a definite golden foil cast to it that is a little hard to judge in the photos but it totally obvious in person. If you don't care much for the golden look, these are not for you, pick another color.
The Mayari is a cute Birk and I would not hesitate to buy in another color!

LOVE THESE..... My foot doesn't slide around in them like some of my other Berks. They are a MUST HAVE for anyone who is on their feet and/or walking a lot. I would never go to Europe or Disney without them.

Perfect for a narrow foot!! I ordered these in a narrow for my daughter who has a very narrow foot. They were a great fit - especially with the adjustable straps. She loves them and are very comfortable and easy to keep on her foot. Highly recommend in a narrow for skinny feet!!!

Birkenstock comfort with a slightly different style. I was afraid the toe strap might be uncomfortable but it is very soft and I forget it's even there

I ALWAYS love Birkenstocks! And they love my extremely painful arthritic feet. One of the few shoes I can wear with no problems.

It took a me a few tries to get the size and color right, but I'm glad I did! These will be a staple over the summer thanks to the comfort and support. Went with the Toffee color and it's beautiful! A+ for comfort!

Friends love these, but with my foot problems, they weren't working for me; I need something with a heel lift.

Love these sandals! I am currently 31 weeks pregnant and my feet have already been crazy swollen. These sandals have been a lifesaver! One sidenote- I do have pretty narrow feet but went with a "regular" width for these and they weren't too wide at all. I normally wear a 6.5-7 in shoes and went with a size 37 in these and they fit great. So nice to be able to have the adjustable straps that I can loosen when my feet are swollen and then can tighten back up when I have the baby! They are also incredibly comfortable to walk in. It did take about a day to break them in, and now I wear them all the time, with everything.

This is my first pair of Birkenstocks, and I absolutely love them! I originally ordered the Birkenstock Gizeh Birko-Flor, which I loved the style, but were super uncomfortable because of the plastic thong. I love the look of the Mayari, and they are so comfortable. I broke them in within a day of wearing them. I normally wear a size 8.5, and the size 39 regular width fit perfect. The company says that the narrow width fits a typical medium width foot, however, I don not have wide feet, and there is no way that the narrow would have fit me.

Ordered them originally in my size but when they came I felt they were too small. The arch was in the wrong location and my toes were hitting the edge. I sent back and ordered the next size up and LOVE them! Took about a month to break in but worth it!
