Customer Reviews Birkenstock Madrid Big Buckle High Shine

They look great... but are not comforable. I do not think they are narrow at all. I have slightly wide feet and was fine. They do run long, though. The sole seems synthetic and that your feet will sweat. I love how they look but the quality and comfort is not worth it.

Way to big, much larger than other Birkenstocks that I have purchased over the years.

I have another pair of Birks from a few years ago and wanted this pair to be my house shoes. I just didn't like anything about them. The glue was visible on the edges and the buckle looked cheap. I don't know if Birkenstock is changing their manufacturing process but these just did not feel the same. I cant say anything bad about the footbed but other than that I wouldn't reccomend.

Unfortunately I had to return them, they were too big! They were cute though.

The buckle dug into the top of my foot making it impossible to wear. It is unfortunately since these are not bulky compared to other Birks

I loved this shoe but the leather was too stiff and sadly I had to return them.

These are SO cute; I really wish I loved them. But even though they are crazy expensive the buckle part is made of stiff, scratchy material that is not comfortable at all!. And the holes for the buckle were so small I had to use incredible force just to get it buckled. As others have mentioned the overall fit is strange. I have wide feet but had to use 2nd to last hole to get them to stay on. Not sure what's going on at Birckenstock: this shoe felt like a $20 shoe from Walmart instead of a shoe that's over $100! They really need to get back to quality materials and quality workmanship on all of their styles.

I've just about worn out the sole on my pair of Birkenstock Madrids with the regular-sized buckle, so I thought these might be my new favorite sandals. The style is cute, but the strap is WAY too loose, even when I tighten it all the way. Quality-wise, these seem the same as the other Birkenstocks I own, but the sizing is off.

The bucket was extremely painful against the top of my foot. because it's so big, it digs into the foot when I take a step. Its fine if I don't have to walk.

Love this look but wide buckle made the strap dig into the top of my foot, decided too hard to try and break in

Buyer beware! I’m very disappointed with these birkenstocks. The footbed is made of plastic and not the usual suede lining. And for the price, it should have a leather footbed!
