Customer Reviews Birkenstock Gizeh Big Buckle High Shine

This shoe didn't fit like my other Birkenstocks, these seem to run much bigger I had to return them

Leather was very stiff and I needed time to break it in but now softening and more comfortable.

I was very disappointed in these shoes. They appeared cheap to me.

Love the look of this shoe but beware the toe divider is a hard plastic and very uncomfortable. I put some moleskin around it. Wish I would of known this, would have not ordered.

I was looking forward to getting these, but was disappointed w/ the feel when I slid my feet into them. They had support, but felt hard on my arches.

Loved the look of these but they were much smaller than any other Birkenstock’s I have. I’ve worn a 37 in birks for as long as I can remember. These showed up and were much shorter and narrower than my other pairs. Not sure if the next size or two up would work since they don’t have them available in those sizes.

Love the look of these, but mine came and were poorly made. There were marks in the leather, the button between the toes was stretched on one, and appeared partially melted on the other. I intended to just exchange, because I love birks and have to assume this was an oversight. Unfortunately, my size is now out of stock.

OMG. The new plastic thingy between the toes is BRUTAL!!! It isn't flexible nor comfortable. I am so disappointed becausse the sandal is otherwise cute.

Size was correct, but felt very uncomfortable. I sent them back.

The toe separator gave me a blister so I returned these. Sorry to say. They need a more comfortable, padded separator at this price. Disappointed!

Prettier than others in the brand, but still clunky and earthy looking, which wasn’t what I was going for. Didn’t keep.

The fit was much different than my other pair of Gizeh. May be me or may be the shoes, either way I am sadly returning them.

Button between the toes was too tight; made it impossible to wear.

I have these in three colors but, this new style with the white sole and big buckle is NOT comfortable. Boo.

Loved these but they showed up with the leather already scuffed looking so they are going back.

The patent leather has no give and so does not accommodate a wider foot the way the soft leather does. I was surprised, but have to return them.

These run very narrow. I gave other Gizeh’s, but the big buckle style runs narrow.

This is my 1st pair of Burkenstocks. The shoe is hard and just not comfortable fit. I was disappointed in the comfort of the sandal for what I paid. I do notice the ones I have are leather inside and the original are cloth. Not sure if that matters. Also maybe the thong as oppose to the over two straps across the foot. I know I don't want to spend another $100 dollars to find out.

These run narrow! I have other Gizeh’s in the same size and the big buckle run smaller / much narrower. Such a disappointment that Birkenstock cannot make their sizing consistent. Will be returning.

I love the idea of these, but they just aren’t fulfilling my expectations in the way they look on my feet Birks are a wonderful sandal - these just aren’t the right style for my feet

so hard!!!! UGH NOt comfortable at all no flexability

The length is too long and the thong arch is very shallow. At first I thought they mistakenly sent me the narrow size, but no. I have other pairs of birkenstoks (most fit like a dream), so I'm not sure why this footprint is different. If you have a wide foot with a high arch, these are not the sandals for you.

I had to return. While I love the style, I was sent the last pair of size 40. One shoe was bright leather, and the other was dull and muted. On my feet, they look like two totally different shoes. I don't fault Birkenstock. The shoe is designed well. I fault Zappos on the quality of this last remaining pair.

unfortunately these Birkenstocks continue to hurt my feet even with 3 weeks of wearing. I am so disappointed, as I always wear Birkenstocks all year. I am a teacher and am on my feet all day and Birks are the best!!! This style is just not forming to my foot. I am very used to wearing the "Gizeh" with the toe thong... this is much thicker and very hard to get used to. The width is also not forming to my foot and I have a medium width. I want to return however, I have already worn them. Please help? I am stuck with very expensive sandals that hurt my feet terribly. Thank you!!
