Love these sandals. First pair that have the strap between the toes and I can tolerate them as the leather is so soft.
I get lots of compliments on the color.

Fantastic shoes! I wear them almost every day. Just enough arch support and they don't get stinky like Chaco or Teva sandals.

A couple things, since the sizes are only full size, I rounded up. Also, after the first 2 days of wearing them my feet killed, I actually had to take a break from them, but once I finally broke them in, I love them. I live in a city and walk everywhere in them!

These shoes survived two weeks of vacation at the beach and in Shanghai, China. I didn't have any problem walking around all over hot and sweaty Shanghai. I did have to break them in, though. I got a nasty blister in between my big toe and second toe on my right foot after a few days of wear (at home, breaking them in). They were fine after that.

I ordered size 40, which is size 9, but it felt a full size larger so I exchanged it for a 38. Zappos was lightning fast in shipping of both pairs and crediting my return. I love this versatile, comfortable and classy-looking sandal!

Love them. I was ordering a pair for my father and started reading the reviews. I decided to order these for myself. The customers who said they helped with plantar fasciitis were 100% correct. I have a heel spur and after wearing these for about three weeks I can no longer feel the pain in my heel. The do take about 3 weeks to break in, but once they do they are great.

I'm not always comfortable in Birkenstocks but these are great. I got the width that the company calls "narrow" (the foot icon on the insole is filled in) but fits an American "b". They needed no break-in (the leather is sturdy but very pliable) and the thong couldn't be more comfortable. These are my fav flat, casual sandals.

Great shoes! Ran a little small; I ended up with a full size down from what I normally wear. They are very comfortable and supportive though, I wear them for walking around in the city and they are probably the most comfortable pair of shoes I own. Also cute and trendy; they look good with everything!

I love these shoes. I bought them to wear for the summer in Europe when I knew I'd be walking a lot and wanted supportive sandals without looking like a foreigner. It took a few days to break them in, but now that I have, they're very comfortable and do exactly as I was hoping. I'd definitely recommend them and love that they came in narrow! If you have a narrow foot, these are a great find.

I purchased these for a 2 week tour of Italy four years ago and they were great. Lots of walking and standing without foot pain or leg fatigue. I have worn them ever since and after four years, needed a second pair. The color goes with everything. Great arch support and no flopping like a traditional flip-flop.

Lovely sandal. The leather version is much richer looking than the less expensive version. The leather is also softer. I agree with other reviewers about the piece in between the toes - very big and hard. However, with regular wear, I am starting to break that part in and they get more comfortable with each wear. Love Zappos!

I was very pleased with the product and the prompt service; especially since I had to exchange due to size difference. I would have no problem ordering another pair of Birkenstock.

The shoes are great, but more importantly was the terrific service. I called and said I thought I had the wrong size. They sent me the next size down so I could try them on and compare the two different sizes. Zappos e-mailed me a return address label. I slapped it on the box and it sent back the original pair. It was great! I love my shoes.

I have worn Birkenstock sandals for many years but always the ones with the straps across the foot. I was worried I would not be able to get used to this one. The worry was needless because these sandals are very comfortable. They take about 4 or five days of wearing them to adjust but then they are the best! I am a size 9 and the 40 is perfect. Wonderful arch support.

I just purchased my second pair of Gizeh sandals. For the summer, I got the Antique Lace, which is an off white, creamy color. They're beautiful and perfect for the summer. I wear a custom orthodic in my athletic shoes and this is the only sandal that provides the same level of arch support. Excellent shoe and great color.

This is my 3rd paid of Gizeh, and just as comfortable as the first two. They're cute and summery but still have the carefree feeling of Birks. The white is bright!

Shopping with Zappos is a good thing. Their return policy is painless and as they advertise. I recently had a problem with regular shoes and my podiatrist said one word Birkenstock so I went looking for a pair I would wear. I got exactly what I needed and for a fair price and no tax. This has saved me money and some pain. Now I shop in the regular stores and find the shoe and the right size and then I go home and order it from Zappos. My feet are getting better and I'm saving money. This is a win-win.

Awesome, comfortable, and cute! My feet were wrecked from flip flops and no support, so I hesitantly ordered these. I'm not a fan of regular Birks, but these are great. I've received a ton of compliments and they are comfy! I did have to order 2 sizes smaller than I normally wear for the arch to fit correctly. Next year I will probably get another color!

I think I wore them too long before breaking them in, and I got blisters on the balls of my feet. Now that they are molded to my feet, they are fantastic. I want to wear them all the time!

I wear the Gizeh 365 days a year. It is great! Since I have worn this style I have not been bothered by plantar fasciitis.

Love these sandals! Ordered a size 38 narrow even though I normally wear a US size 8. Be sure to break them in slowly, though. I still have blisters between my toes from a few days ago. Walked just a little too far in them.

Love these shoes, so practical but a slightly funky metallic brown. This is my second pair, great for summer, skirts, pants, shorts, dresses...and matches just about everything.

Love them! They have a distinct bronzed look that doesn't show up in the picture. They are more metallic looking than the picture.
