I have long, skinny, flat feet with long toes. Generally I have to buckle straps over my feet as tightly as I can, and even punch new holes or make modifications to fit snugly (Finn Comfort). With flip flops, I usually size up to a FULL SIZE down in order not to walk right out of them. I have a pair of Mayari in size 39 regular (i'm about 8 to 8.5 US) which I love and which work, but these Arizona narrow are perfect. I even have an extra hole if it stretches out and I need to cinch. Super happy!
I'd also recommend:
Finn Comfort (for support/plantar fasciitis/fibroma)

I went down a full size in these and i went with the narrow width. The fit perfectly! They will take some time to break in, but have lots of support and are very comfortable.

I haven’t worn Birkenstock’s in years, and forgot just how comfortable they are. Love the gray / iron color and the soft footbed is the best. So glad I bought these!

These fit perfectly just out of the box. The gray is a little darker than I'd envisioned, but I love it. Footbed is perfect. These will go with skirts, slacks, casual dresses. Glad I purchased.

These will fit perfectly if you use the Birkenstocks sizing chart on their website. It's a PDF that you can print out and step on to figure out what your size and width actually is. I normally wear a size 8 in Vans/Nike/etc., and got their equivalent to a size 6–6.5.

Great shoe. Super comfortable and sturdy. I would recommend going a half size to a full size down.

Haven’t had a pair in years. I love them and look forward to walking many miles in them. Love the leather & color. Very comfortable for people with wide feet..

The size of these shoes were as expected. I did feel that they were slightly more narrow due to the soft footbed than my previous pair. They are very comfortable however and worth the extra for the soft footbed.

My birks are my go to summer shoe. I hardly wear anything else May-August. I wear a 7.5 and got a 36, but a 37 would work too I'm sure. I prefer the soft footbed compared to my mayari's that don't have it. I also like the true leather rather than the synthetic.

My wife and I have been wearing this model of Birkenstocks for decades. Use them as slippers in the house and around the yard. Nothing will cure or prevent plantar fascitis better. Wife likes soft bed, I like hard, both work fine.
I'd also recommend:
Filson boots.

This is my fourth pair of Birkenstocks purchased just in the past few years, so I know I can depend on the fit being the same with each pair, which is perfect for my foot. They're very adjustable in the width so I would think they fit most people. I bought these mainly for a house shoe, but if I forget & wear them out, it won't be a problem. Super comfy!

I've been wanting to get a pair of Birkenstocks for the longest time and was pleased that a pair became available in the color I wanted (Brown Amalfi leather). However, I noticed that they fit differently than two others I had ordered (same size and width, different colors of leather) in that I had to buckle them on a different hold setting. I'm still breaking them in, but I definitely prefer the soft footbed to the regular. Based on what I read of reviews, I went with the narrow width as well. Very cute, I'm just waiting for them to become molded to my foot for the legendary comfort I've heard about!

My husband wears these, he practically lives in them most of the year, except for a very short time in the middle of the winter. We just buy a new pair of the exact same birks every several years - maybe 3 or 4? Generally when I see spots wearing through on the soles, I take them away and order him a new pair, because he'll literally wear them until there is nothing left. He loves these.

Bought these for my husband and he loves them! Habana color has a worn look that he really likes, makes them look a little nicer than the standard suede. He is a size 12 and I bought him size 44 which fit snug, but is what you want in this style. Size 45 was a little too big.

I have several Birks, but this was my first pair with the soft footbed and I am in love. These shoes are soo comfortable. I got the iron color which is beautiful. Love them.

This is my second pair of Birks, and I highly recommend them. I have flat feet and wear a size 40(EU). When I ordered the Arizonas, I worried that they’d slap my heels when I walk (like flip flops), but they don’t. The adjustable straps & buckles allow for a perfect fit. I invested in the soft footbed, which is ????. Not the most stylish shoes, but they sure are the comfiest! S

Birkenstock’s really help the back pain I tend to experience after a day of walking around on our hardwood floors, standing to cook etc. They make such a difference I just don’t walk around the house without them. I only use mine as house shoes but I need to purchase another pair for outdoor wear. I originally purchased the Sherpa lined Birks but after a few months the lining was matting and rubbing off in spots and smelled. I loved them so much though I decided to buy the soft bed Arizona and I love them.

I love Birkenstocks and these are no different! Love them with everything! I am a teacher and stand most of the day and these have the support and comfort I need. My middle school kids think I'm really cool too ;)

I have had Arizonas for the last 20+ years. Only once did I stray and bought another model (Gizeh) and I so missed the comfort of this model. It is like walking on a cloud. I bought in weathered grey and they look fantastic.

Finally broke down and bought these. Always thought they looked clunky but now that I’m wearing them, they’re perfect! I’m a solid women’s 11, sometimes 12 in sneakers. Tried both the 43 and 42 narrow. The 42 fit like a glove. My everyday inside shoe (my plantar fasciitis makes it impossible to go barefoot anymore. I like that it’s skip on it if I have socks I don’t have hassle if thing. I wear all day plus running errands around town. Love them.
