Product Description

This is the real deal. Cork, leather, a buckle or two: these are the simple ideas that have made feet happy for over two hundred years, and that's the original Birkenstock. These shoes are made in Germany since 1774. No smoke, no mirrors, and no gizmos are needed. You walk, the shoe molds to your foot. The shape of the Original Birkenstock Footbed enables body weight to be distributed evenly over the whole foot, providing it with optimal support.

Customers are mixed about the fit of the sandals. Some mention that they fit great, comfortable, looking good, and great value, while others say that the sizing is off on these, the sandal is huge, and the straps are a bit too long. The middle toe was too long, and they are not the same from one shoe to the other. The side of the arch is narrow and puts pressure on the foot.

Once you go Birks, you stay Birks
My feet have been in Birks when not in boots (retired Army) since 1992. Yes, you read that right, at the time of this review, I have been wearing Birks for 28 years. I have had 2 pairs of Arizona sandals (one still in service) and 4 pairs of Milano sandals (2 still in service, this pair is the 4th), two pairs of London (or is it Boston?) shoes, one brown, one black, both in service. Not many pairs for 28 years, since Birks are durable, and can be refurbished/renewer with new foot beds and outsoles, leather restored for around $80. So, they are recyclable in a sense.All this to say - this product is not a fake. I know Birks. These are Birks. Newsflash, Birks are “popular” and a fad again. No doubt Birkenstock is struggling to keep up with demand, and perhaps quality is suffering. But not with this new pair, for me at least- the quality is the same as ever. I took a picture of new and old next to each other.I got this pair since I was interested in trying the soft bed, and typically I get the Nubuck leather. I wanted to try a new brown leather, as well as have a new pair for fancy hippy get together. Well. I make a horrible hippy. Sure, I wear Birks and drive a Subaru. But - I have short hair, don’t smoke MJ (or any drugs for that matter) and am politically independent / Libertarian.The leather in this pair is shiny, not at all like the product listing photos. The picture of them on my feet show the difference. However, I like the leather, as it is different for me.The soft bed? Absolutely fabulous! I am glad that I gave the soft bed a go!

5.0 out of 5 stars Love my birkenstocks!
Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2016
According to Birkenstock's size chart, I should wear a size 39 for an 8-8.5 size show. However, I found them to be wayyyy too big. So I went down a size to a 38 and they fit perfectly! I have wanted these shoes for years and I finally have them. I love how hard the leather is. It's a rich brown leather that will age beautifully over time. The leather is very stiff so for now I am wearing them with socks, which works out well during the colder winter months. With socks on, the hard leather doesn't bother me at all so by summer they should be soft enough to go without socks. I have very high arches and typically wear inserts inside my tennis shoes. I don't seem to need any kind of insert with these shoes. My arches don't ache at all in these. It's absolute heaven! If you've wanted these for a long time like I did but are unsure because of the cost, take my word for it, they are worth every penny!

Also, the shipping information got messed up on my order and that made me nervous. I sent them an email and they responded promptly and courteously! Excellent product and excellent customer service!
