Per the size chart I ordered this in a 38 (I am a true size 7 woman's shoe) and I just couldn't get the straps to be comfortable - I tried tighter, looser, wore them around the house for a few days and finally decided that no matter how much I loved the look they had to go back. Then I looked at my old Birks (different style) that have always been so comfortable and saw they were a 37 (not a 38) and decided to try this style in 37. This made all the difference! The smaller size made the footbed hit in the right places so my foot didn't sllide around and the straps way more comfortable. I'm glad I didn't give up because I love the dressier look of these with the gold buckle. Best of all - the new ones were comfortable right out of the box! Thank you to LL Bean customer service for being helpful with the return/exchange process!

They're birks..they speak for themselves. Comfortable, versatile style, and brown with gold makes it elevated casual.

These Birkenstock fit very nicely. I prefer these to the soft footbed even, which is what I had been purchasing all this time. The big buckle helps dress up the shoes, meaning that I can wear them casually or in more dressy situations. The brown is perfect. I will still give them five stars, but the scuffing on the leather is noticeable and it doesn't take much to scuff them.

These sandals fit perfectly, and my daughter absolutely loved them! They're super comfortable and go well with various outfits. She just adored the style and found them really comfy!

Love these! The big buckle looks really cute. Like all original birks they needs a few weeks of break-in time to form to your foot.

A little adjustment needed with the large buckles but very comfortable afterwards

I have been wearing birks for years and decided to try the narrow. Life changing comfort.

Loved the look of the Big Buckles. The holes on the straps of the sandals were not punched correctly. One fit perfect, the other was too loose. Would love to try another pair.

I got the teal color. In most street shoes I wear a standard 9. In Dansko's I wear a 39. In Sanita a 40. In sneakers like Brooks a 9 or 9W because I need toe box room. In flats a 9.5 or a 9W again toe box. If you're a true 9-9.5 and a M to mildly wide you CAN wear the narrow in these. I bought the 9-95 narrow marked 40 on the box and they fit beautifully. Truly like a glove. For reference I have bunyons and still these are perfect. I RARELY have the experience of slipping on a shoe that fits perfectly out fo the box, these were like they were handmade for my foot. If you want to interpret that as if you have difficult to fit, flat feet with bunyons and need toe space and would never buy a "Narrow" you possibly can in this case. Shop On bc Zappos return policy is the best out there. The color is phenomenal, if you like a true teal you will love this!

Only the left shoe was too wide and I had the buckles in the tightest holes. I loved the shoes but would have been walking out of the left one. My problem, not yours.

Great shoe, my first pair of Berks and I have to say they are wonderful. They feel light supportive and classy. I feel like I can wear these literally with everything.

Absolutely fabulous! I wore them all summer and I walk 5 miles a day. They are so comfortable. I just wish I could wear them in the winter.

I bought these and the black patent even though they were narrow. I have a narrow heel anyway so the 9-9 1/2 size was perfect. I tested them with my fairaisle socks, and I am happy with them. Love the big buckle.

I can only wear regular width in Birkenstocks and I was so glad to find these big buckle black Berks in my size. At first They were pretty stiff, but after wearing them in the house, then out for the first time today, they feel good. I hope & expect the footbed to form to my feet, as my other Birks have. I’m very pleased with them.

I wear a size 42 in Birks. That translates to 11-11 1/2. Wasn’t sure at first that I liked the big buckle but they grew on me. They are dressier than the regular buckle Birks. They’ll take a bit more wearing to break in because they’re oiled leather but will ultimately be very comfortable like all Birks.

These are so cute and classy. They are very versatile. As with any Birkenstocks, they can take a minute to break in, but once they're broken in they're completely molded to your foot and super comfortable. I recommend these to anybody!

I have worn these so much. After 2 days I could tell a difference in my plantar fasciitis. Not to mention they look fabulous with denim or dresses. They even made an appearance on casual Friday (some other girls in the office sport the dressier big buckle too). Best Buy of the summer
