Shoes fits great...and even though my husband thinks I should keep these exclusively for a trip to Machu Picchu, I love 'em just to hang around. They are extremely comfortable.

My favorite pair of Birks! I wore these every day for almost three summers, and walked a hole through them. Time for another pair!

I have been wanting these for some time but could never get the right fit until I saw that Zappos had them. I tried several sizes - 41 and 42 in both the narrow and regular. Plus I tried the real leather straps as well as the synthetic birkibuc. I think I must have had 6 pairs ordered and tried them all. I ended up keeping the 42 reg birkibuc as they felt the most comfortable. I usually wear a women's size 11M in most shoes. Thanks to Zappos incredible service I was finally able to fit the perfect fit. Love them.

I love these. I chose the color to go with jeans and other denims. They are extremely comfortable as well. I wear Birkenstocks every day whenever it's warm enough.

The Mayari are quite comfortable out of the box but I do recommend easing into wearing them for long periods of time. I wasn't sure if the toe loop would be bothersome but it's quite comfortable. I was debating on color as I'm usually a 'stick with black' sort of gal, but I'm glad I stepped outside of my comfort zone and went with the onyx. It's a nice gunmetal sort of gray that should go with nearly everything. I was very unsure of what to do about sizing as many of the reviews seem to indicate that you should order down a size and many say to order your true size. I am a solid 8.5 (39 in Dansko) and decided to just stick with 39 narrow. The 39s are an exact fit without much wiggle room so if you're 8.5 I would suggest 39 and if you tend to run towards 9, you might want the 40.

I have plantar fasciitis and ordered orthotics for my shoes and still had no relief. My friend told me to look into ordering a pair od Birkenstocks. I did now I have 3 pair and it's the only shoes I wear now I have cleaned my closet of all others.

These are by far my favorite sandal from Birkenstock! They look classier than the traditional Birks with the strap on the back. More feminine but with ULTIMATE comfort. I daringly wore these on a weekend trip to Chicago with lots of walking and they performed excellently straight out of the box without breaking them in first. I had to loosen the strap around my pinkie toe at first but once they loosened up a bit there was no issues whatsoever. Yesterday I got them soaked in a torrential downpour and they still looked new this morning after they dried out in front of the fan all night. The oiled tobacco is a fabulous neutral tone that I wear with everything. I also own the red birkiflor sandals with the synthetic upper that were also super comfortable right out of the box with no rubbing on the toe strap. These can't be beat! They are the only sandals I can wear all day and have my feet feeling as good as ever! I wear a 10-10.5 in other shoes and I bought a 41 to fit perfectly. I typically like a shoe with a roomy toe area and these fit the bill!

I jumped on the Birkenstock bandwagon. I didn't want the style everyone was getting, so I opted for the Mayari in patent black. I did some research on what width to purchase, and I decided on taking the plunge with ordering the 38s in narrow. My feet are a true 7.5 and the size I went for fit my feet perfectly. The shoes are stylish and simple. Would highly recommend!

My new Birkenstocks are so comfortable, and I love the style and especially the color. It's sort of a silvery blue. I have a very wide foot and usually have a hard time finding shoes that fit properly, but these sandals fit perfectly.

I ordered these shoes well into my third trimester of pregnancy in hopes of alleviating some back and hip pain. I really cannot believe how much just wearing supportive shoes has helped. I have short, wide feet and needed to order a size 36, but they fit great! This is my first pair of Birkenstocks (though probably not my last), and they immediately began to help with my back and hips, though the first couple of days they made my feet slightly sore since I was not used to such intense support. Now I wear them almost all the time, even around the house, and they do not bother me at all. I am able to stand and walk for much longer periods of time now, even though I am 38 1/2 weeks pregnant, and thus it has been much easier to keep up with my toddler and things around the house. I would highly recommend these shoes. I only rated them a 4 for style because they are still a bit clunky, though I wear them with shorts, or to church - everywhere, and because I was hoping for a gold color but could not find one in this style.

I absolutely love these. Comfortable and really cute. It only took a couple of times for the leather to soften up and be really comfortable between my toes.

Definitely the best looking Birk. Looks very feminine on the foot, and is super comfortable. A great sandal that you will want to put on every day! Also, the narrow looks better on the foot. The wide looks too wide in the toe area.

This is such a versatile shoe. The color works well with most outfits. Also, I have plantar fasciitis in both feet and the firm arch support works very well for me. I am very impressed.

I love these shoes! They were my first pair of Birkenstocks since childhood, and I had forgotten the joys of foot-focused German engineering. Since purchasing them, I have only stopped wearing them to sleep (reluctantly). It did take a few days for my feet to get used to the footbed, but now that they have adjusted, nothing feels as wonderful as my Birks.

I'm glad I rounded down to size. I have a slightly narrow foot and the narrow size fits well. I love the more-feminine style. Takes a little while to break in, but it will be worth it!

I am in love with the Birkenstock Mayari! I have flat, narrow feet and love the solid support Birkenstocks provide. I was THRILLED to see that they offered the Mayari in NARROW width. They are the only shoe I am wearing this summer! I ordered them in 2 colors. I wear a size 9 (40) and they fit true to size. The location of the straps keep them solidly on my feet and I like the "prettier" style!

Great, very comfortable sandals as others have mentioned with excellent arch support. Keep in mind that Zappos does not translate the European sizes very well--I wear a 9.5 US size but I always get a 41 for European shoes, Birkenstocks included.

I found these more attractive than the classic "Arizona" style but they still have the amazing Birkenstock comfort and outrageous arch support. There are seriously no sandals more comfortable than Birkenstocks. Can wear them every day of the summer without getting the sore feet I get from flip flops or other flat shoes and they are cute, too!

I've been wanting a sandal with more support than a flip flop, and bought these as a cute way to join the recent Birkenstock trend! I have a wide foot and typically wear a 6 1/2 - 7, so I was a little unsure of what size to order. Based on the reviews I first tried a 37, but they felt a little large and online fit resources suggested my heel should land towards the back of the shoe - if not, it's too big. Down to a 36 I went, and they fit perfectly!

These arrived in 2 days of ordering! I love how comfortable they are. I think the Mayari style looks more feminine than the Arizona one because the straps are slimmer. I was really worried about the width because after I ordered them I noticed that a lot people were saying the narrow was much better for feet that are not considered wide. They said regular is for wide and narrow is for regular. I have average width feet, so I was going to reorder and get the narrow but when I put them on they were perfect. Based on these shoes, which I got in a 36 (I'm typically a 6 US in flip flops and maybe a 6.5 US in closed toe shoes) and these fit perfectly. I wouldn't go with narrow unless your feet are super slim. So when my feet are resting in the sandal, there is no extra space at the toe or the heel. I have a shorter big toe than second toe so my 4 toes seem to go over the front very slightly when I walk but it doesn't bug me. I haven't gone out and really walked anywhere yet but I'm hoping it should be fine.

This was my first pair of Birkenstocks. I am so happy with my purchase! I had to adjust the straps a bit for maximum comfort, but once I got it right these sandals felt so supportive. I can walk all day in them. I love the oiled black leather look and hope to buy more colors soon. You won't regret buying these! Side note: This ran really big for me, exchanged my usual size for one smaller.

I originally bought these in Birki-flor brown color, but didn't like the shiny look. I returned them for the habana oiled leather and I love the look. I usually wear a 7-7.5 in shoes, and had to get a 37 N in these (love that Zappos carries the narrow sizes). I don't typically buy narrow in other brands, but definitely needed to for these because they run wide. It is great to find a stylish and comfortable sandal that will last.

I bought these shoes in silver at the end of last summer. I wore them daily until it got too cold, and they were the first shoes I took out of my closet this past spring! After a short break-in period, they became amazingly comfortable, as well as the most supportive shoes I have ever owned. I always get compliments on them, and people are usually surprised they are Birks because of the cute style. The silver color takes casual clothes up a notch, and goes with almost everything. I have problem feet as well as narrow feet which makes it almost impossible to find shoes, but I can wear these all day without pain! Love the adjustable straps - even though they are narrow, I still have the buckles on almost the last hole. I am back for another pair in another color, because they are worth every penny!!

I have plantar fasciitis, which is very painful. The main natural thing you can to do heal this is to wear good shoes with a strong arch support. But I live in Texas and the thought of closed toed shoes in summer is just not gonna happen! So I ordered these Birkenstock's and they are WONDERFUL! Good support and my feet appreciate the purchase!
