Bought for my son- he loves them. Wears a size 11 in Nike shoes, went with other reviews to size down. Got a 43 narrow and fit perfect!

Love the soft footbed. Already feels broken in as opposed to regular birkenstocks.

After many years of resisting, I finally gave in to purchasing Birkenstocks. These Arizona soft footbed sandals (got the tobacco color) aren’t the sexiest sandals around for women, but boy are they comfortable. I did end up developing a callous on the ball of one foot, but that didn’t bother me too much after a while. So glad I gave in to finally purchasing a pair! And of course, can’t beat the Zappos customer service! I had received a pair and it looked like they were slightly different colors. Zappos took it right back and sent me another without judgment!

I am usually a size 8 in all shoes. The 8-8.5 women’s size fits perfectly, however, I do wear the regular since my feet are wider at the toe box. I do have a pair of Arizona’s that are 9-9.5 marrow and those are a little too big on me. It took about a week for these to feel totally comfortable on my feet, but they were so soft right away.

I had an original pair of birkenstocks and the footbed was worn down and some of the cork was being exposed. I looked into just repairing my current shoes but it costs just as much as a new pair! I ended up trying out the new soft bed birkenstocks because people said they were easier to wear out of the box and that was SO TRUE! Compared to the original footbed these are much softer out of the box. The leather straps are the only thing you really have to “break in”. So happy I got these shoes

Great shoe, but leather just too stiff for my feet, compared to the Suede or a softer style of leather.

I’m usually a 7.5 and ordered these in the 7.5-8 women’s range. Could have ordered a 7; a bit long, but comfy.

Love these Birk's! Been wearing this style for years - best, most long lasting, and practical sandals known to man. Last pair lasted over 5 years, and still weren't worn out, except all cushioning was gone. Therefore I upgraded to the soft footbed and very glad I did. Well worth the extra money. Much improvement in comfort. I will someday die of old age, but these Birk's may still be on my feet!

Great quality product. My first pair of the soft footbed style and they are very comfortable. I would say it took about 2 full days of wearing them to break them in. I wear a size 13 US and size 13 Birkenstock’s feel true to size. I wore them almost everyday since the purchase and I am very pleased. The leather tobacco brown is a nice color option. I contimplated on these and the darker brown. I’m glad I went with this color. I feel the tobacco brown matches well with my clothing options. My son now wants a pair. He wears a size 13 too! Lol. I definitely would recommend these.

I bought these shoes, hoping they would relieve tendonitis in my Achilles and heel on my left foot. The left shoe fits perfectly and seems to be helping my problem. Because my right foot is more pronated, it is taking longer and some Band-Aids to break in. But still worth the trouble. This style is unisex so they are a little bit masculine. I'm a girl so I just paint my toenails and enjoy the comfort!

These are my first Birks and I'm so happy with them! I'm usually between a 7.5-8 and I chose the 38 narrow, they are just barely long enough and the width is perfect (I have average width feet). I wore them for the first time on an hour long walk today and only got one small blister, so I'm super impressed (I usually blister easily, especially with new shoes). The Alfani leather is super soft and comfortable.

These shoes are great! I usually always wear a size 8, so I went into a store to ensure I would order the correct size, which came out to 38 in Birkenstocks. I also have a wide foot, so I ordered the normal width. They were stiff at first, but after reading online I wore them about 30 minutes to an hour for the first few days, and within 5 days they were broken in and felt so comfortable! I can't get on board with calling these sandals "stylish" however when my friend told me she wore them for 90 miles walking all over Europe, I was sold. Zappos shipped so quickly too! Extremely satisfied with my purchase!

I love my Birks!!! They fit great and are comfortable to wear everywhere. I do normally wear a size 8 but got these in a 7-7.5 so I would suggest a size down when buying!

I normally wear an 11, the 12-12.5 sandal is what fit me. The softbed is excellent. It’s very comfortable.

I hadn’t worn Birkenstocks for years and am so glad I decided to give them another try. I ended up purchasing two pair of the Arizona’s with the soft sole, it’s a way better design in my opinion. Not to soft but for sure not as hard as the original. I’ve always had to get a half size smaller in Birkenstocks. I tried using the Birkenstock foot sizing chart and it is WAY off. I measured size 46 and wound up exchanging for a size 43 that fit perfectly.

My very first pair of Birkenstocks and now I know what everyone raves about! They are so comfortable! They fit comfortably around my foot. The color is a bit darker that the picture, was hoping for a bit lighter grey. But still happy with them!

I just got these shoes and I like them. I’m still breaking them in, so I have blisters on the sides of my feet. I don’t know if once I wear them more I’ll stop getting blisters but that’s usually the case. Other than that, they’re really cute!

The soft foot bed is a lot more comfortable initially than the traditional one. It still takes time to break in. My arches were in pain the first day but after a few wears they felt great! The Alfani leather is so pretty!

I love my Arizona sanadals! They do rub big and kind of wide. I generally wear a size 8 in other sandals but order the 7-7.5 in the Arizona.

I purchased these as a gift after I had just purchased my birko-flor Birks. After I tried these on I really wish I had purchased the soft bed instead, it makes a HUGE difference. Definitely would recommend splurging the extra $30-40 to invest in the soft bed Birkenstocks!
