Nice leather, good quality. I am sure they will last a long time, as have other Birks that I have had for quite awhile. These will go with anything. I find them a bit wide, but have adjusted the straps to the smallest size. Imitations do not hold a candle to the originals. Worth the money!

I already owned a pair of the dark brown suede Arizonas with soft footbed, decided to get the smooth leather for a different look. These are just as comfortable, no break in period at all for me. The copper buckles on the tobacco color are a nice touch. Remember narrow in Birkies = normal width in most other shoes.

I always wanted a pair of Birkenstocks...I have flat feet and have painful feet with certain shoes. Was a Kalso Earth girl until they started making their shoes cheap...but still the spendy price tag. Ordered the Arizona in brown amalfi in the soft foot bed. I can honestly say they fit like a glove. I never had to break them in like other people have stated. I wear these shoes from the time I get up to when I go to sleep. I wish Birkenstock made a sneaker. Only thing about the leather is Do not get them wet! Love these shoes.

Amazing sandals! Best purchase ever taking into account that is an iconic sandal. Especially this spring-summer season! Want to use them all the time!

I've worn this style for years and find it supremely comfortably and timeless. The Hunter Brown color is GORGEOUS! Love it and will wear it forever.

I had to reorder because the size 7 (40) were too large. They did not feel all that comfortable so I decided to go smaller. The size 39 fits as they should on my arches. The Naots I ordered in size 7 are fine and true to size. Thus, I would say that Birkenstocks run half a size larger so half a size smaller should fit correctly. I tried one of these size 39 sandals on one foot with a size 7 Naot that I received on the other foot to see what the difference was. Both felt like the same sandal! That was strange! However, when wearing them separately they each felt slightly different in their own way. I'll keep both the Naots and the Birkenstocks. Zappos is great and exceeds expectations in customer service for fast delivery times and in handling returns.

The soft bed meant that these shoes are reasonably comfortable right away, instead of requiring the typical Birkenstock break in period.

I really like it. It is kind of fashionable and also very comfortable. When I first time tried it on, I can actually feel the difference between the Birkenstock and other brand of sandals. It is worth the money I paid.

I live in these things! Always have two pairs on hand and replace them every two years. Birkenstock should give me a free pair for all that I've bought over the years! Anyway, can't do without them in my daily life but they won't get you any closer to finding a new spouse when your all alone.

My husband has had his first pair of Birkenstock's for approximately 10 years and they still looked great. However, we were going on a trip for our Anniversary and I felt he should have a new pair just like the ones he loves. When he opened them up, you'd thought I'd given him a million dollars! He loves them!

I love slip on shoes, (sandals), I was very dubious about buying these shoes for a long time. I tried about three other brands, but they were like bedroom slippers, so I finally tried a pair of Birkenstocks. Initially I did not like them,they were not comfortable, and were hard to walk with. I remembered reading that they would mold to your feet, after a couple of weeks they did mold to the shape of my foot, and now I feel like they were custom made just for my feet. The shoes are very attractive, and I really like them a lot. They are very pricey, I hope they last a long time. I wish they had more styles to choose from. I hope to go on welfare soon, then I can afford to buy another pair.

This is my 2nd pair of Birkenstocks, but the first with the soft footbed. The regular ones were always comfortable in the past , but the soft footbed is wonderful for my newly acquired foot problems. Birkenstocks last for years, and can be re-soled at a shoemaker for even more wear.

I love these sandals. I have been wearing this type for over 15 years. I have flat feet, and the Birkenstock footbed is the most comfortable for me.

I'm a long time Birkenstock owner, but this was my first Zappos experience and first soft footbed for Birkenstock shoes. Both are fantastic! The super fast delivery from Zappos blew me away! I totally didn't expect to receive the shoes the next day, but when I saw that box I was very pleasantly surprised. The soft footbed on these shoes took virtually no time to break in. This was great since the last pair of Birkenstocks took days (maybe weeks) to break in. Most comfortable shoes ever!

Very comfortable. I have fallen arches and these have very good arch support. My feet are fairly wide and these are slightly loose on me. Next time I order Birkenstocks I plan to order narrow.

Great sandals! Very comfortable. The extra support that the molded footbed offers makes a huge difference. I've been wearing them almost exclusively for the last three weeks both in Key West and New York City. The only small downside is that thenleather straps do stretch quite a bit.

For me the soft foobed is a great improvement over the standard footbed. It provides improved heal comfort. The arc support remains excellent.

Most comfortable sandals ever! I got the suede and they are the softest of the styles. I have a pair of the other kind and they are nowhere near as comfortable. The regular width size is way to wide for me. I have the buckle on the last hole tightened all the way and they are still too wide. so unless you have really fat feet...get the narrow size.

I love my new Birkenstocks. This is my first pair and they have exceeded my expectations. I suffer from Plantar Fasciitis and these have helped tremendously. Zappos service was outstanding!

This is a very solid sandal with very good arch support. It is a bit hard when compare to similar SAS sandal, but I think this will last longer. A very good buy.

I love the fast and helpful service from Zappos! If something doesn't work out for me, it is easy and convenient to return a purchase. My new Birkenstock sandals are wonderful, a good look for casual and snappy casual wear. This style is a very comfortable all day shoe.

I didn't even know that the soft bed shoes existed, and bought them quite by accident. I love the way they feel, just like slippers. I will never go back to the hard soles. I am sold on these.
