I’m a long time fan of Birkenstock (since 1987) The Arizona is my favorite style and suede the most comfortable strap. I am a size 9 shoe regular width and I buy Birks in 40 Narrow (which is a regular width for them) I purchased the Navy (Night) suede with the matching buckles. The navy is a dark grey blue .... they are cute! I buy the soft foot bed. They really do make a difference if your back bothers you.

LOVE my Birkenstock’s! I started wearing them 20 years ago (& continued even when it wasn’t “cool”). Now I’m back in style. :) GREAT sandals. Worth every penny. Bought a second pair two weeks later lol FYI This style IS wide. Perfect for my “Fred Flintstone” feet though. Haha

I have been wearing Birkenstocks for 30 years now and this is my first pair with the soft footbed. I love them. I got the Velvet Gray suede. The color is beautiful and the suede is so comfy. Sizing: I'm a 7.5-8 womens narrow, for this style (and Milano) I wear 39N. In the Salina and all plastic Arizona styles I wear 38N. I have high arches and these provide great support.

I'm a female with average width feet, but need wider shoes because of a bunion on my left foot. These are perfect in the regular width, as I can adjust the straps on both shoes to fit the different widths I need. Comfortable from first wear (I've found some styles of Birkenstocks aren't because the leather is stiff at first).

Love Zappos! Don't know how they ship so fast! This is my first pair of Birkenstocks since I was in High School - I really like them - they don't hurt my feet or rub anywhere - they are comfortable to walk around in for hours - I love the soft footbed (it's just got the right amount of padding). They are getting more comfortable and easier to walk in as I wear them more and more. I got a size 40 I am a 9.5 / 10 with a wide foot. Love these sandals look forward to wearing all summer!

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.

Purchased these as a gift for my husband. We ordered the narrow width and they fit him better than any other pair of Birkenstocks he has owned. The soft footbed is noticably more comfortable to him as well.

These sandals were recommended by my podiatrist to alleviate for discomfort. The sandals are great, and Zappos' service is the best!

Love them though they are a little too big, should have ordered one size smaller than my actual size. Brings back some great college memories!

This sandal is worth the extra money for the soft footbed. Very comfortable, and very durable. The only problem I had was that they didn't come with enough holes on the straps making them not tight enough, so I just made my own holes. Not a big problem. These sandals are made with a softer material on the straps making them even better. In other words spend the little extra money these sandals cost because it's worth it.

Love these! I got these after first having bought the Birkis that are similar and loved them for several years. I wanted another great shoe and tried these out. The soft footbed is really nice and comfortable. I am noticing that they are wearing better than the other pair too. I will have these for years! Definitely easier on your foot than flip flops too!

My husband loved these shoes. The suede is very soft and easy to wear without that break-in period. The only issue was that we had to add another hole in the front strap to tighten the fit.

Well, now that summer is almost over - I've found the perfect sandal. These shoes are wonderfully comfortable, though they do take a few wearings to break them in. I'm on my feet all day & have had such a hard time finding shoes that don't make my feet/ankles hurt. Birkenstocks may not be all soft and cushy, but someone once told me - they might not be the shoes your feet want, but they're the shoes your feet need.

I think these are the most comfortable shoe for summer, they go with just about, and I stress "just about" anything. I think they run a tad bit small, but hey, they are still great. I wish they came in half sizes, and then they would be the perfect shoe.

True comfort - This soft footbed is much better than the regular footbed in that there is no break-in time. I slipped these sandals on my feet and they felt so comfortable. I got the narrow width and glad that I did because they fit just like a medium width. This Arizona cashmere is a very neutral color, am going to try the soft footbed in a suede color next. As always the customer service at zappos is outstanding!

No arthritis pain in my feet now! Please buy the narrow shoe and purchase your sandal a half size smaller than you would normally buy. I took this advice from a teenager and she was absolutely right!

Love Birkies - I read the special note on the Zappos website that said Birkenstock narrow is an American average size in width. This was new information to me and I decided to go ahead and order a narrow. The sandals fit perfectly! I also always go down one full size too. I usually wear an 8 but in Birkenstocks I wear a 7. I just love them.

While the fit was fine, (they did feel closer to a Regular than a Wide), and they were comfortable, the "grey" color just appeared slightly purple to me and did not match my charcoal grey clothes so I chose to replace it with another option.

These are much better than your typical slide with better support; however, I felt much better in shoes with a softer footbed and more arch support. I found better values, style, comfort, and support with Vionic, SAS, Aravon, Taos, and Teva. I do not recommend Clark's as their footbed flattens out leaving you without any arch support.
