These summer birks are very cute ! I usually wear a 8.5, so sizing down to a 38 in Birkenstock gave me a much closer fit.

This popular style just wasnt to my liking. I found the arizona to be much more supportive and good at keeping my feet in place without a lot of gripping.

Fit of footbed was fine; Birkenstock makes the best footbeds for those of us with arch (both long arch and metatarsal) problems. However, Birkenstock shoes are made for wide feet (which is typical in Germany), and so it is best if those of us with narrow feet buy a size down. On this style, the straps, which are adjustable with buckles, are stiff and uncomfortable. Have to return, too bad. Wish Birkenstock would look at getting elastic straps!

Overall these are comfortable! I was under the impression these shoes run a size larger so order a size smaller, and I'd say that's true. I also thought, from researching online, these had a wider regular footbed than normal. I didn't find that to be true... my feet are not wide and I'm always a regular width in shoes but found my whole foot taking up the footbed of my new birks. I do have a bunion on my right foot and that fit comfortably, but if my feet were just a smidge wider I don't think I'd be able to wear them comfortably, so be aware if you've got wide feet!

I loved the style, but the fit was much larger then I expected. I typically wear an 8 wide, sometimes 8.5 so I ordered the 39. It was way too big. The width was great though. I am exchanging them for the 38.

The arch support on these is something to get used to! They recommend wearing these in short bursts until you get used to them. They are super cute for summer

I loved the sandal but it is way too wide for my foot. I had to return them and I wish that Zappos would carry the narrow ones.

I wear an 8.5 and bought these in a 38. They fit well, however, they are a little tight around my big toe which I am assuming will give as I wear them in. These are initally more comfortable and fashionable than my Arizona Birkenstocks, meaning I did not get blisters from these, but unless the toe strap loosens, I prefer the Arizonas.

I usually wear a 40 in the Boston and Zurich styles so I got the 40 in the mayari. They seem longer than the other styles but when I tried the 39 my toes touch the top rim. I have long toes and I think with the Mayari style my foot sits further forward because of the toe strap therefore my long toes hit the front. I'm bummed because I really wanted these sandals for an easy slip-on summer shoe but I'm not keeping either the 40 or 39. The footbed on all Birkenstock's are wonderful if your foot sits well in the shoe.

Very high arch support, too much for me. They were uncomfortable and I don’t want to spend weeks breaking in shoes.

Overall it looks great, though the toe bar hurts a lot for the first several wears. Eventually you’ll pat it down as you break it in. I still find mine to be a bit painful and the leather on top of my toes seems to be a bit rough. I got the regular width, I might try the narrow next time if it comes in narrow. Wish it came in the soft, those have a less aggressive toe bar. They’ll take a while to break in, that’s for sure!

This shoe runs a half-size larger. I like the bronze color so I will exchange for a smaller size.

I read many reviews before ordering & knew to order one size down for a great fit. Order the regular width unless u have narrow feet in this style. My feet are a normal width size 6 1/2 & the 36 regular fit awesome. Now I just need to break them in a bit before wearing all day!

These shows are really comfy once you break them in. You must break them in well though, I wore these on vacation after only wearing them out and about on occasion, the top straps dug into the bottom of my ankle so bad I bled and I now have scars there.

LOVE these sandals! I owned the toffee version for 3 years before the toe strap broke. After a brief break-in period, these are the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. These sandals and I have been on many adventures and walked many, many miles with zero pain. Literally hiking, fishing, weddings, work... alllll the things. I will buy another pair this spring for sure!

Bought these as a gift for someone who normally wears a size 7.5/8 in shoes. I order the 37 and they fit perfectly. The straps are a bit tight on the wider foot, the recipient had to wear them on the loosest strap hole, hoping the straps won’t pop under pressure while walking. They are very comfortable.

I almost returned them because they felt a bit too big but the straps are adjustable and I was worried about erring on the side of not big enough. These were super comfortable and I wore them nonstop this past summer and was not embarrassed to be wearing Birkenstocks.

They fit, but the footbed was too stiff. I prefer the soft footbed from Birkenstock.
