Been wearing Birks for over 10 years now. First time to get the soft footbed. Feels great, moteled tan/brown goes with a lot!

I've just discovered 'prettier' Birkenstocks and very much like this shoe. The leather is just a little stiffer than I'd like. Perhaps it will soften with wear.

I have worn Birkenstock for about 15 years and love the way they fit. My feet are narrow so I always have had to put an extra hole in the straps to make them fit right. When I saw that this style comes in narrow width I just had to buy them! I love the soft footbed and the perfect fit!

I absolutely love these shoes. This is my fourth pair of Birkenstocks, but my first soft footbed ever purchased. They're awesome! They're very comfortable, the sizing is great and the twilight blue is stylish. Also, the price was right and the customer service that Zappos provided was outstanding!! Highly recommend this shoe and this company to everyone!

These are the most feminine Birks ever. I get so many compliments especially when I wear them with linen pants. So cute. I don't need to mention how incredibly comfortable they are...but cute.

I bought and loved a pair of Birkenstock sandles years ago. These are even better with the soft footbed.

I love these shoes. I have worn Birkenstocks for years but this is the first time I have had the Soft Footbed type. They are very comfortable. They work great with or without socks. I wear the narrow width and they were true to size.

I wear a 10N and have trouble finding sandals that will stay on my feet. My husband jokes that these shoes are glued to my feet. I slipped them on when they arrived and don't want to take them off. Why did I wait so long to purchase Birkenstocks? I'll make up for lost time soon and purchase a closed-toe style.

I love Birkenstock's - it's all I wear all summer long. This style is much better looking, but not quite as comfortable, as the Arizona's I usually wear.

A wonderful newer style from Birkenstock. The Granada does not have as chunky a look as the Arizona for example, but has the same level of comfort offering a more stylish appearance. As a long time wearer of Birkenstock sandals, and as a person with arthritis and bone spurs in my feet and with very high arches, I look forward to. Sandal wearing weather. Nothing beats the soft footbed of Birkenstocks.

Great sandals, only took a day to break in and are ridiculously comfortable. Also, much cuter than the traditional Birkenstock.

Very comfortable and does not require a break-in period like my other Birks. The leather is a little stiff but hopefully will soften over time. Suede straps would probably be better.

Very comfortable shoe. The soft footbed is way more comfortable than the regular footbed. The leather is comfortable and does not require breaking in.

Very comfy and good to my feet. A little long for my Barney Rubble feet, but am so thrilled with the width that I am happy to overlook it. Plus they are kind to my plantar fasciitis, so they are keepers.

This shoe doesn't come in a smaller size. Too bad. I really like it! Birkenstocks run larger than I expected. Sorry.

I love these sandals and easy to slip on and off, yet comfortable enough to walk for blocks. I thought my old Birkenstocks were comfortable, but these are even better and the Zinfandel is a cute color. My feet are a bit wider and taller than average and the adjustable second strap is great. The width feels regular for a Birkenstock, but probably a bit wider than other shoes.

I have lived in my Birkenstock Arizona Softbed sandals for over a year now. They have literally saved my sore feet. I wear them around the house constantly. Unfortunately, I am tough on shoes and need to replace the corkbed. I was looking for another Birkenstock that was more feminine and this one fit the bill perfectly. What an improvement! One warning though...I don't have huge feet but they must be somewhat chubby as I am on the first hole for each strap. The one up higher rubs a little but I know that the leather will stretch some, so I am not worried. If you have swollen feet, these probably won't work for you. Overall, I am very happy.

Comfortable. A little different in color but that’s expected with the leather Birks, but I love them! I wear a 6-6.5 in regular shoes/slippers and the size 36 Birks are the perfect fit for me.

I was so in the mood for a comfy pair of Birkenstocks, but unfortunately these didn't do it for me. I found the straps to be stiff and irritating to my skin. I have fibromyalgia though, so I may be extra sensitive and my feet always hurt. The other issue I discovered in trying these on was that I need "out of the box" comfortable shoes. With Birkenstocks it takes some wear-in time for the footbed to conform to your feet in order to achieve that ultimate comfort level. If the straps were softer I may have been able to allow for that wear-in time, but I couldn't tolerate having to completely break these in. Thank you Zappos for the easy (and free!) returns!

I really like these Birks but expected a more cushioned effect from the Softbed. Service was as good as I had heard; my order was here long before scheduled to arrive. Keep up the great standards!

Birkenstock shoes are my most comfortable shoes, When I come home wearing something else, the first thing I do is putting my Birkenstock shoes on to relax. At home I wear them all the time. I found these Granadas very attractive, The many leather straps made them a bit dressier looking. The top straps that have a V-design were a bit hard on my high arch, and unfortunately caused some blistering. Now this has healed, hopefully with more wear, and resetting the buckle this will give no more problems. Leather Birkenstocks are somewhat pricey, but you can wear them with most anything. These blue ones look great with jeans and khakis.

I really wanted these to work but they are simply too wide. Also, the strap nearest my toes rubbed. Have to return.
