The classic Birk! Comfortable and versatile. Come with a slightly worn look, which is exactly what I wanted. Totally true to size!

The sandal is very comfortable and just what I'm looking for. But the Amalfi brown leather is too shiny for me - I want it to be a bit more worn looking or "matte". So I will return these wait for the Habana or brown suede sandals to be back and stock and see how they look.

Loved the style, comfort and fit. I wear these all the time. The only issue I had was that they were a bit too wide so I had to tighten the straps. Otherwise these are perfect!

Love the fit, comfort and style. My feet are a tad on the narrow side so I had to tighten the straps. But otherwise perfect!

It doesn't get any better in terms of comfort and support than Birkenstock. Sandals are super iconic. And, a special couple shout out to Zappos. My sandals arrived within 24 hours.

I’ve had my Birks for two years now and they’re still in great condition! Seriously, I look at the sole and there’s very little wear compared to how long I’ve had them for. I would definitely recommend buying the leather version over non-leather or vegan styles; my sister bought a vegan pair at the same time I bought my leather pair and hers have stretched out to gradually to the point where the straps are on the tightest buckle and they’re still too loose. I will say though that at someone with wider feet, these feel juuuuust a tad too narrow. If I wear mine too long, the edges of the footbed start to rub against the side of my foot and leave blisters. That’s my foot’s fault, however, not Birkenstock’s. Love these shoes. They’re a great investment, well worth the money.

I have purchased numerous pairs of Birkenstocks through the years, but I have never purchased a pair with the soft footbed. Wow. I love them. I haven't had a pair of Arizonas for awhile - not because I didn't choose them, but because they were always sold out. I am looking forward to summer!

There is no brand of shoes that suit people with problem feet any better than Birkenstock. I wish they would add more styles.

This was my second pair of the Arizona Softbed Birkenstocks because I love them so much!! I have Plantar fasciitis and these are the most comfortable shoes I wear for that. I ordered the darker brown pair this time and I didn't really like the color, too dark, so I called Zappos and talked to the most wonderful customer service rep who exchanged them for me for the lighter brown. I've always been impressed with Zappos customer service; they go way above and beyond, which brings me back!!

I ordered both the black and iron in regular.....when they arrived I noticed that is was WIDE, very wide. I called customer service, talked to the sweetest lady, and found out that 'narrow' fits women better since its a unisex shoe. I exchanged both pairs, however the iron was not available so I ended up with just the black pair. I will say that if you are looking for grey, like I was and like the picture shows, you will be bummed when you receive these - they are not like the picture indicates - they are waaaaay darker.
But all in all. the shoe itself is amazing!! happy shopping!

I have been wanting a pair of Birkenstock's for a while now! Finally picked out this pair and I love them! Because the straps are adjustable you get the perfect fit. Also, I used the fit guide that you can print to measure and make sure I was getting the correct size! The color is accurate and will match a lot of my wardrobe. I will for sure be breaking these in this summer :)

These shoes are so comfortable! They are much better than wearing thong flip flops - they stay on my feet without having to "hold" them with my toes. I've only worn them a few times so far but they've already molded to my feet and are so comfortable to wear. Highly recommend!

Originally I purchased the 'regular' but when I received those they were too large (width wise). I called customer service and spoke with the nicest, most helpful rep who mentioned that the 'regular' is more inline with the mens (since the is a unisex shoe) and that I needed to be in a narrow (even those my feet are not narrow).
GREAT recommendation and now fits perfectly.

These are AMAZING! Feel like they are made for my foot. I have a wider foot with a very high arch, making finding sandals extremely difficult...but, these are the answer! They are so cute on and very flattering and versatile. I will always have a pair of these, I’m sure!

Have used them for 2 summers now and they still look nice. Had to go up a half size though but that’s kind of typical for me when it comes to sandals and the fit I prefer.

I prefer this leather to the suede. Although it's a more casual shoe, the leather just looks nicer over time than the suede. The shoe was comfortable right out of the box. Sizing was spot on and the shoe has held up very well.

One can never go wrong with Birkenstocks! I have several pairs and I'm partial to the Arizona.

This is a really classic Birkenstock. I love the soft footbed. The oiled leather has kind of a matte finish. Overall great show for my plantar fasciitis!

Beautiful shoes! Excellent arch support as always! The leather straps are very very stiff. I’ve worn them tons of times and they still aren’t broken in good. Love then and would buy them again just know the straps are hard.

These shoes felt comfortable from the moment that I put them on. I adjusted the buckles to fit my feet. I knew my Birkenstock size (37, narrow), as I was able to try this brand on, in a local shop. I, most often, wear a size 7; and would describe my foot width as average, leaning on the narrow side. I like the natural materials (i.e., leather and cork) that are available in Birkenstock shoes. The color that I chose (the neutral-brown shade of "Tobacco") is just what I was looking for; and a color that I'll enjoy with much of my wardrobe. :-) I also like that the width of my Birkenstock shoe size is close to the width of my foot, as I wanted the look of a shoe that would mostly conform to my feet. In other words, I didn't want the look of wide shoes on my feet. I think that the narrow size is perfect for my goal! I also appreciate that the leather finish is matte; so that, if I ever accidentally scuff a shoe, the scuff won't glare out as much as it would on a shinier shoe.
I'm very happy with my new, slide-on sandle for warm or cool times of the year; and looking forward to, what I hope and expect to be, many years of comfortable use! :-)
