I’ve been wearing Birkenstock’s for decades and now that I’m old, they are the only brand I can wear all day. I know my size and just keep ordering more. I have about 20 pairs and they all look like new because I rotate them all the time.

I am normally a 7.5W but 8-8.5 in medium width women's shoes. Because of years of wearing shoes too long and too narrow, I am very particular about fit and do not like when my shoes are too big. If your shoes don't fit, you are more clumsy and likely to get bunions. I got these in the 38 regular width and I could not have sized down. My bunions make my feet a little narrower than before I had them so I wasn't sure if I should get regular or narrow width based on others reviews but I definitely needed the regular width. One thing I like about these is that (unlike a lot of wide width shoes) although the foot bed is very wide, the heel is more narrow. Perfect for my duck feet.

I originally ordered a size 43 since I usually wear a size 10.5. As soon as they arrived I tried them on and they were a size too big. I called customer service and they rushed out a size 42 which fit perfectly. Great customer service! Will definitely be ordering again!

I’m normally a medium width shoe and the narrow was the right choice for me. I ended up with 2 of the same sandal which is the only reason I returned these. Very comfortable!

Had to return and get a size down from my normal 10.5 but the smaller size fits like a (properly-sized) glove and is beyond comfortable

Love! After much research on all the Birkenstock options I settled on these OG 39 Narrow Softbed. I’m a true size 8.5 and find the break in time is much faster than the original corkbed. Since the shoe is unisex I feel the narrow is better and fits closer to a woman’s shoe. To help with sizing further - I wear a 9 in Nike, and 8.5 everywhere else.

Wonderful sandal. The amalfi leather is very nice. Of course I need to break them in a little but thats ok, I can feel that after a few times wearing them around the house they will turn in the most comfy sandals ever.

So I went back and forth with widths and sizes trying to get a good pair of my first Birks. I finally did. I’m a pretty consistent 9 and tried the narrow, tried a 39, tried different styles, but ended up with a regular size 40 in this tobacco brown regular footbed. I have the straps to the smallest hole, but I fell like my feet aren’t so squished. Seems like a bit of breaking in period, but nothing I can’t handle. The excellent customer service is no joke. They are amazing.

I'm a womens size 8.5 and needed to return the 39 - definitely size down! The 38 is a little snug on the back of my heel but hoping to wear it in.

These are great sandals, but my husband has a bunion on one foot, so they rubbed. Will have to return, sadly.

I have worn Birkenstocks for years. Not sure if something happened with this soft footbed but unlike my other Birkenstocks, the arch support felt like it was highly elevated and completely irritated my foot - so far that I now have Plantar Faciitis. Make sure you don't take it for granted that this shoe will feel like your others...

Bought these for my mom. This is her first pair of Birkenstock’s! Very true to size and she loved them!! Loved the comfort that the sole of the shoe has.

I wore Birks way back in high school & forgot that fitting was a complete challenge but Zappos exchange process is smooth and easy! I went solely off the size guide that said if I wear a women's 9.5 regular width you are a 40 narrow. Wrong. I thought the show just to narrow & exchanged for 40 regular. nope didnt work either. Finally decided okay I have to be a 39 regular. Bingo that's my size. My only problem now is I'm on the very first hole on the straps. When this leather stretches I'll have to bore new holes to tighten the straps. Soft footbed is lovely I can definitely tell the difference from from the Madrids that I ordered at the same time. I feel like these will break in faster. I'm happy.

My husband loves these Birks! For reference, he wears a 10.5 in Adidas running shoes and the size 42 was perfect. Initially bought a size 43 which was about a size too large.

Love this sandal. I have wide feet and these fit perfectly. Virtually no break-in time and they don't cause blisters. A huge win and cute shoe!
