The Arizona Soft Footbed sandal is super comfortable and looks great on my feet. I ordered the iron color which is grey and I really like it. Color is as it appears online. I ordered the regular width as I find myself buying wide shoes lately and I'm glad I did. I love that the buckles can be adjusted for a custom fit. This is my first Birkenstock purchase after wanting a pair forever but holding back on buying due to price. I first ordered a size too large but was able to exchange for a size smaller due to the efforts of the awesome customer service representatives at Zappos. I had to contact Zappos twice about shipping me the smaller size but the representatives were very helpful and seemed to genuinely want to help me with my sizing problem. I love the sandals, would purchase again and would definitely recommend these sandals to anyone on the fence about purchasing them. Comfort is worth the price. Many thanks to the customer service representatives for making the return process so simple.

Comments on the first pair of these sandals I ordered led me to believe the narrow width would be appropriate for me. It proved not to be so. The narrow width sandals actually bruised my arch. I returned the narrow width for a regular width, and the regular width fits perfectly. Unless you actually have a narrow foot, I would stick with a regular width.

Love my Birkenstock sandals. This is the 4th pair of the Arizona model that I've owned. They last a long time and get more comfortable as you wear them. They fit my wide feet well. I'm a size 13 E for shoes and the 46 fits me perfectly.

I have ten pairs of Birks in various styles and the Arizona softbed sandals in Habana oiled leather might be my favorite. The soft bed is comfortable from Day One. It also provides a snug fit because of an added layer of foam. The oiled leather has a rugged look and the thick straps don't stretch as do the suede and vegan styles.
Most women will prefer the narrow width. As a guy with average size guy feet, the regular width works well with the thicker cushion of the soft footbed.
I find Birks are most comfortable with the ankle strap almost snug and the toe strap a bit loose to avoid rubbing. As the footbed shapes itself to your foot the Arizona sandals will stay in place without overly tight straps.

The fit and size is perfect. I love Birkenstocks with the soft footbed. I hate to have to wear anything else. I don’t very often. Zappos is the perfect place to get them!

Sooo lucky to be able to work and live in Birkenstocks! Soft foot bed is well worth the extra.

I got these because I have mid foot arthritis and need a shoe I can adjust over the arch, but that has arch support, if that makes any sense. These fit the bill; offer good support and are adjustable. Style-wise these Birks have their own little vibe, I feel. You can wear them in winter with socks and bare in summer. Do pay attention to the sizing suggestions for women. I did order the narrow, and they do fit fine. I have other Birks that are specifically for women, and have always ordered the M width.

This pair was my way of introducing Birkies to my husband, and he loves them!
Now he gets why I’ve raved about mine for years!

These were a gift for my daughter, who was very specific in the style and color she wanted. When she first tried them on, she was concerned they were the wrong size (she typically wears a 5.5) but this is her first pair of Birkenstocks so she wasn't sure what to expect. Once she put them on and adjusted the straps, they were perfect. She's thrilled with them!

While I am not a big fan of the look of these sandals I LOVE how they feel! I am a runner and these alleviate my plantar fasciitis and hip pain. They are easy to put on and off and it provides relief to my high arches. The soft footbed is a must for me. I wish had had these years ago!

These are the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever owned. This is my second pair, as my new dog ate my ten year old pair 1 month ago.
I’ve also just ordered the Arizona for my husband!

I love them so far! They are stylish and cute. I am waiting for them to break in as they are a bit stiff. The quality of the leather is outstanding.

I LOVE MY BIRKENSTOCKS. THEY FIT PERFECTLY. I WEAR THEM DAILY. THE ARCH IS GREAT, THEY ARE VERY COMFORTABLE AND THEY LOOK GREAT TOO.
BEFORE I WORE BIRKIS I HAD A PROBLEM WITH MY ARCH. IT WAS SO SEVERE THE ORTHO DOCTOR MADE A BRACE FOR ME. IT WAS SOOO UNCOMFORTABLE. ONCE I STARTED WEARING BIRKIS. NO MORE PAIN OR PROBLEMS WITH MY ARCH. I LOVE MY BIRKIS!!!! PERFECT FOR FLORIDA LIVING.

Have great difficulty finding shoes or sandels cause I am 9.5 triple E. These fit the bill perfectly. Needed something to aid in allowing light and air for continuous healing of fungus toe nails. These help tremendously. Highly recommend!

The narrow fit kept the shoe from flopping or me struggling to keep the shoe on. Now I’ve only had them a few days so I’m still breaking them in, hopefully these will be the correct fit for me.

I was concerned about not having a backstrap. After a few hours they stay on and are the most comfortable shoes I have and I have a hard time finding comfortable shoes. Highly recommend.

I got these for my mother as a present. I was home last September, and she loved the ones I had on but it was way to big. Her, being Asian, it was tricky to find the right size for her. She claimed that she wears a 7 in American size. So I took a gamble and ordered her a 6-6.5 in American size, and sure enough they were a perfect fit. She definitely can wear them in the East Coast winter conditions, but she once she heads home to the warm tropical islands, she definitely will love them. Right now she wears them inside the house and she loves the soft foot bed. Thank you Birkenstock for making and old lady happy with your product. Thank you Zappos for the expedient delivery service. Expect another order soon cause I know she will wear them out soon walking in our hometown.

These are great sandles. Broke my foot and my podiatrist recommended them for wearing around the house for support. Excellent solution to flat feet and an injury rehab.
