These are adorable and will match everything! I got them in silver and wasn't sure if they would be too narrow, but I have been walking around the house in them and so far so good. I always take 40R and I have a very wide toe box so I am hoping these work and that I won't be sending them back. I love them!

I have only had one other pair of Birkenstock’s. This pair is lovely. Feminine, actually. I bought the pinkish shade and it is lovely.
I always wear a size 8 and sometimes even a wide.
I bought this in the size 8 narrow. I returned for the size 7 and it fits great.
You will like this shoe and it’s comfort and support.
Zappos is the greatest.

I am normally a 6.5 and my feet are on the wide side. I wear 36 in birks and this is the size that worked for me in these. Although they are "narrow" they fit me fine. They are comfortable but of course require time to break in as birks typically do. They are definitely the cutest birks I have ever owned! I love the rose gold and the big buckle. They are very flattering and will go with a lot of different outfits. A bit pricey but worth it.

Beautiful sandal. I’ve read several reviews that claim the inner sole is plastic. The sole is leather not plastic. The slightly big gold buckle adds a super cute touch. I wear a 7.5 or 8 medium depending on the shoe and the 38 fit perfectly.

I LOVE these Birkenstocks! I have the arizonas as well, but have been choosing these daily. The bottom is coated and it is seriously so, so comfortable! Get compliments on them all the time. The leather was stiff and squeaky for about a week, but that went away with wear. Wish I had purchased in Cognac as well before they went out of stock.

I love these - I like that they're a bit "dressier" than my other Birkenstocks and I can get away with wearing them to work. I was a little worried that they only come in a narrow width, but they fit my regular-width feet perfectly - they're just less wide than a typical Birkenstock.
The only problem I'm having is that, after several wears (at least 5-6 at this point), the strap is turning the top of my foot black. I don't know if it's dye from the leather or what, but I'm hoping it stops soon.

I love these - they’re super comfortable, but dressy enough that I can wear them to work. The only thing is that I’ve worn them a few times and the color on the strap is running onto my skin and turning the tops of my feet black. I’m hoping it’ll stop after a few more wears...?
I was initially nervous that these only came in “narrow,” but (for me), it seems like that means it fits more like a regular shoe vs. a super-wide classic Birkenstock.

I always take a 9 or 9-1/2. I ordered the size 39 (marked as a 8-8-1/2) and they fit perfectly. I also do not have a narrow foot, but the narrow fits perfectly as well. I made all these decisions based on the prior comments and there were all very true. The big buckle is what drew me to these. I am not a fan of the typical Birkenstocks, but these are very stylish. They are very comfortable from day 1. The leather footbed is actually very soft and feels good. This is my first pair of Birkenstocks, so I do not have a comparison to the usual cork footbed. Overall, I could not be more pleased and looking forward to a summer full of everyday wear.

I absolutely love the style of this Birk, the sizing is still large I am a 7.5 n the 37 fit perfectly. The buckle is large and very stylish. It is shiny gold which is ok. Would have preferred if it was distressed. Overall it was a great purchase.

They run large. I normally wear a U.S. 7.5 and the recommended 37 were too large.

Beautiful shoes, but not as comfortable as other styles. May need to be worn in a little. The large buckle can rub.

I have a medium foot, and so many reviews said it ran narrow, so I wasn't sure if it would be too narrow. It was exactly the opposite. I buckled the strap to the last hole, but as I started to walk in the house, they almost flew off my feet - even gripping with my toes, and I got the 6-6.5 size (I wear a 6.5). They were too big for me. Super cute though and I loved the oiled bronze color. The arch support felt great standing still. Sadly, I had to return.

I love this shoe because it’s comfortable and cute! Goes with everything I wear in the summer. The problem is that it runs large The footbed is too long for me. I am a Solid 7 in most sandals but I’m also leaning towards the wide side so I read the reviews and went with a 38. After wearing for a few days ( only inside ) I felt like the footbed was too wobbly. It’s too LONG for my foot. In additions, the width is too big and I need another whole….So I’m returning and getting the smaller size. Hoping that works! I’ll write a review for that one to compare

I love the style, but I had to size down (a whole size). It isn't super comfortable so I am wearing around the house with socks to break in.

These are so good-looking! Love the big buckle in a soft brushed gold. BUT, they didn't feel secure enough on my foot. I wear Gizeh's and Arizona's non-stop but these flip-flopped too much for me. Hoping for a style next spring with the big buckle in brushed gold against black nubuck.

Super cute, slim birk option! And who doesn't love the big buckle and pink suede? Unfortunately, the edges of the suede were way too rough and just with trying them on, the rough edges hurt my feet. So, sadly, they went back.

These are really cute but in order to make them fit I had to adjust the strap to the last hole to make them narrow enough. I don’t have narrow feet so if you do, these may be too wide.

I wish I could have kept these, they are such an easy style that can be dressed up or dressed down. Ultimately, the big buckle was uncomfortable and pushed into the top of my foot when I walked. Had to return.

I loved the way this style LOOKED!!! I really wanted t o keep them. But they felt a bit slippery and loose and I was afraid I would walk out of them. I have a small foot . I walk a lot. I decided to return these. I think they might have fit better had the insole not been the slicker smoother leather rather than the traditional sueded footbed that I have always had with Birkenstock. Too bad. I wanted to keep them. But I did not.

I really wanted to keep these. A Great Style and a "cool" look. BUT. The footbed is slippery on my rather small foot. (5 l/2). I am returning because I think my foot slips around too much while wearing.
I wish they had the original Birkenstock sueded leather footbed. They have a better "grip". I think.

I have several pairs of Birkenstocks and these were just a smidge smaller than the 38s I normally wear. I really like the look of these and was so hoping they would be like my other Birks. But with the single strap on the top and trying them out around the house, I don't think they are as supportive as what I'm use to with my other Birks.
