Customer Reviews Birkenstock Arizona Soft Footbed - Suede (Unisex)

Love them! However, I do feel like they are a hair smaller than my Mayari and Eva Arizona shoes. It wasn’t enough that I considered them too small though.

I always love my Birkenstocks. They take a few wears to form to your foot and then they are like a glove.

Fit perfectly! Little stiff at first, but in time I think it will get broken in.

I wish I could wear Birkenstocks but alas is it not to be because they are just way too wide and high on my low profile foot. Had to try and would have loved to keep them.

Smaller size was too short. This size seems a little big and loose even on tightest hole. Overall very comfortable

The suede is noticeable stiffer and thinner than the blue suede Arizona's I had in the 80's. After many years of good service they were severly damaged, the dog ate through one of the straps. No amount of 'Frankenstein' stitches lasted.

I wear a 7 in almost every shoe but I guess I needed an 8 in these. I have very skinny feet so even with the narrow I still have a gap on the sides of my feet. The color is pretty but gets dirt easy. But now that I’ve experienced the Birkenstock comfort, nothing else compares. I don’t want to take them off.

My so loves to wear Birkenstock’s. So, I picked out the gray ones for him. He loves them! The color is so rich and velvety. Great purchase!

The right strap across across top of foot is set wrong. It wears bulging open on the outside.

Love these, bit for women’s feet really need rhe narrow!

I have coveted birks forever, and finally bought a pair. I need more holes in the straps, so I have ordered a leather hole punch. Color is great, and I understand these will have to be worn in before they feel super comfy.

The straps are too large. Hed to take them to the local shoe store so they could add another hole for the buckle so they would be secure on my feet.

I've had 2 other pairs of Arizona-style Birks & these, oddly don't fit the same. The straps are a little longer & hang down too long. I had to notch them all the way & still too loose. One right shoe, inside on outer side of foot, something inside is sort of poky. Something is lightly scratching there. I LOVE this style typically and I really LOVE this color, but I have to return them. Too expensive to not fit right.

I love Birkenstocks and was happy to have a blue one that was not navy. However the blue comes off on your feet. I expect this to stop after wearing them a while. Otherwise they are normal for Birkenstocks - great support. I prefer the regular ones to the soft but this is my first soft one and I don't think the arch support if as good maybe because it is softer, but it is still there . I love the color.

I wear a women’s 9 1/2 to 10. Always size 10 in athletic shoes & my foot is a normal, medium width. I used to buy wear these in 39 narrow, but now I buy them in 39 regular width & they’re so much more comfortable & my toes & feet have room to spread when standing & walking like they’re supposed to. There’s a sizing picture inside the box that’s accurate. Unless you have a really narrow foot go regular width.

All good except color was darker than I thought. Looks like black not grey. But still nice and SO comfy.

Had to return - Birkenstock needs to make 1/2 sizes!!!!

These fit perfectly and the suede was nice and soft, but something about the style didn’t quite work for me. I love Birkenstock and Zappos, so I’ll keep looking for another, more feminine style to replace my older Mayaris.

Purchased these shoes for the comfort rather than for the style.....the shoe fit was perfect. I have a narrow heel and wide toe box and normally wear 7-7 1/2 so I purchased the narrow size. I am returning these though because the suede of these shoes did not match. I realize that with a natural product such as leather there are some variations....but these were just too different from one another.....the left's straps were soft, brushed suede that wouldn't even hold its shape and appeared to be an older shoe. The right shoe's strap was a stiff suede that held its shape and looked new. I would have kept these shoes if they would have matched better but the difference was just too noticeable to keep them when paying $135 for sandals....

I have worn the Arizona for 25 years with no issue but this one rubs my big toes on the outer edge of the strap. I have this shoe in blue and it is perfect. Dorry this one did not work for me. I’ll try again. thx.

I've always wanted to have a pair of Birkenstock's but can't seem to find a pair that fit my feet well. I understand over time they mold to your foot but how can I wear them enough to see if they eventually fit well but still return them if they don't?! Isn't the policy to return them unworn? Ugh - so frustrating but totally understandable. I absolutely love the grey velvet color but have tried the 39 and the 40, both returned. I think I need a 39.5. lol All of you who wear Birkie's and love them - I'm so jealous!

I ordered the soft footbed in size 39 but was delivered the regular footbed. It felt ok but a little short in the toe bar on the right foot. The left felt perfect, but apparently you’re supposed to size Birkenstock’s from the right foot. I seem to land right between sizes 39 and 40, depending on the footbed. Apparently the soft footbed can change the size a bit or just enough to make a difference either way.

Suede is really soft, raps around your foot really nicely. But it could be a little too soft to support your feet in place. witch I kind of felt I need a little bit stronger support to hold my feet. Birko-Flor upper one might work better.

I ordered size 37 which was described as size 6/6.5 but it fit more like a size 7. I would exchange for a 36 to get closer to a 6/6.5 size.

well they sure r good looking! what’s so weird is that I got the exact same sandal in different color and they fit differently. I’m torn because the first pair, brown, fit like a glove out of the box! The second pair, these gray guys, were too big on every level. SAME SIZE! sending back. prob keeping the perf fit even though not crazy about color.
