Customer Reviews Birkenstock Mayari Oiled Leather

I wanted to like these because I love the color, but unfortunately, they didn't look great on me. I've got wide feet and these made my feet look wider (and the width was regular-not wide). The toe opening wasn't very comfortable and I was concerned it would rub and cause blisters. At this price point, I didn't want to risk it so sadly they are going back.

Wanted to love these but they are just ok. Very wide looking on feet.

Great shoe, but the toe strap on the right shoe seemed to be longer and fit funny compared to the left. I gaped and wasn't secure on my toe like the left one. May have been a defect of this pair of shoes. Sent back this pair and have ordered another pair to see if the pair I got was just a one off.

The sandal was very cute. I did not like the the toe grip area. It felt lumpy to me. I also bought Mephisto sandals to try. They are very similar. I liked the fit of those better.

LOVED the style; but the “Flor” series have a shiny surface/coating I couldn’t get over. It was a bit tight around my big toe even with adjustments.

The style is very cute. I've always worn 38 regular in Birkenstocks (over 20 years now), and these were shockingly tighter. The length appeared correct, but the width is now much more narrow. The leather was also quite stiff, and would require a breaking in period. I had to return them.

I've tried almost every Mayari and I love the look, but they suction squeak on the bottom of my feet. Back to my trusty Arizona softbed.

I was so excited to get these in the mail. They are sooo comfortable and exactly what I’ve wanted...except the color is much darker in person than in the picture advertised, which is super disappointing. I got the Habana Oiled leather. Still not sure how I feel about it and if I’ll keep them or not.

I love the way these look, they are so cute. The toe part feels great, but the heel area is very narrow. The sides were rubbing on the sides of my heel, so I had to return them.

So I love Birkenstocks but I don’t live the fact that I’ve had these for 4 months and they are starting to come apart. Too expensive for the quality. It had been a looong time since I’ve had shoes from this company..and I feel like the quality has gone down hill. Might not ever buy Birks ever again.

Loved this shoe. Unfortunately, because I have a bunion and my toes aren’t straight, the toe strap didn’t feel comfortable.

First, let me say that I love Birks! This was a purchase of a different color (I already had the stone), this pair was not up to the brand standard. So disappointed, the cork has broken down and started to fray, the sole of the sandal broke apart by the front toe strap. I had this pair for only 5 months! My other pairs of Birks has lasted years. I'm not ready to write the brand off yet, but just be careful when you receive them.

Hurt my big toes

The color isn't as described. My pair is very very light tan rather than brown. Returning for another color.

I want to love these sandals--I love the style and I love the arch support. Unfortunately, the space between the toe ridge and the ridge at the front of the foot bed is far too short for my toes. My toes crunch up uncomfortably against the foot bed ridge. Had to return. I found better success with the soft footbed Birks where the toe support wasn't as pronounced.

It has someone else's footprint on the right sandal, which looks worn, (like another reviewer of Birkenstock's noted - not good)... but the left does not look worn, & the suede footbed is a lighter color, than the right...So it appears that the left & the right seem to be from 2 different "batches". Other than that, the piece that goes in between the toes is very uncomfortable, the angle of it rubs a lot. The footbed is great, as usual - the old "classic" very comfortable footbed, which seems to be being replaced by a "soft" footbed these days. The classic is the best. I've learned that, although I measure about a 7, & usually am 7 1/2 in most any closed shoes, size 36 works perfectly in Birkenstock sandals. (They run kind of big.)

If you wear a half size, size up! Had to return the first pair for a larger size.

I want to love these so much. They're easy to slip on, everyone else loves them, and they're a little dressier-looking than a flip flop or hiking sandal. But I tried two sizes and I've adjusted them and they give me blisters on both arches and the bottom of my right foot every time I wear them for more than short distances. They felt great around the house, so now they've been worn outside and can't be returned, but I'm disappointed at the high cost for such discomfort. I lovelovelove the Chaco Z/Volv X2 I bought at the same time, but am still looking for a comfortable shoe to wear to slightly dressier occasions.

It came in a generic / not branded Birkenstock box. This makes me uncomfortable given the problem Birkenstock has with counterfeiting.

this purchase was for a teen family member. She hated them on her feet and they were far too large. We ordered the Arizona a full size down and they fit her perfectly and she is much happier.

They cracked & feel that should not happen.

I was very disappointed to find out these are not made with real leather uppers or with real cork. The online product description talks about the cork footbed and leather uppers (except for "Birko-flor"), but the tag on the shoes says nothing about cork. And it turns out the "Birkibuck" uppers aren't leather either. I'm returning them.

I love my Birkenstock clogs for winter and wanted to love the sandals, bu I just didn’t. Everyone says they are great once you break them in, but I was afraid they would hurt too much until they did.

Super cute! I need a narrow and the buckle straps we great for a narrow but the one strap over the toe that was not adjustable was not a narrow. It gapped all around the toe. Unfortunately I had to return them.

The arch placement was in different spots on the show and it was visible. I would consider this pair defective. Unfortunately Zappos is out of my size to reorder.
