Original Birkenstockâs. Worth the money.
Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2019
I know there are a lot of fake Birkenstockâs out there, and I was apprehensive about getting these. I did a lot of research before taking a chance. They ARE the real thing. I have had a lot of Birkenstockâs in my day, all of them bought in a store or on their official website. This time I had a gift card for Amazon, so I was determined to use it.I only wear Birkenstocks (I live in Texas where itâs hot or warm pretty much all year), so I am obviously a fan. They are prizey, but worth the money, I think. I wear mine all day, every day and they last me 1-2 years. Quality product.As usual, they have to be worn in, and they become softer and more comfortable the more you wear them. They are hard when they first arrive, but wear them around the house the first week or two, and youâll be good.The pictures are after I wore them for about two weeks.They shipped from Leipzig, Germany and arrived with DHL, after just 2 days. I was very pleasantly surprised since they werenât supposed to arrive for another month!I did read somewhere that Birkenstock will only sell their shoes through Amazon until April 2019, so be aware of that.
These look like leather, but are easy to clean

I went with the vegan Birkenstock because I'm tough on my shoes, and didn't want leather or suede. These look like leather, but are easy to clean, comfortable, and supportive. They'll be my go-to summer shoe.
Vegan, durable and stylish? Oh my!

I am so very happy I bought these. I was a bit worried to purchase vegan shoes, because the last time I bought vegan sandals they fell apart. Several wears in, these only get more comfortable and are not showing signs of falling apart. 100% would buy again, I'm loving them.

I"ve been wearing birkenstocks for a couple years and love them, but I've had an issue with finding them locally in non-suede lite colors. I was very happy to find these in cream plain leather. Love them and they stay so much nicer looker than the suede ones.

Love love my berks. Could not live without them. They are so great for people with plantar fasciitis and other problems. Wish I had found them sooner~!
Give me the old brick and mortar shoe store.

Apparentlyâ, the conversion schedule between US and European foot sizing doesn't work for my. Either I am an inomonly, or incapable of reading the chart. This is the third time that I purchased European shoes on line, and every pair has been too small. Accordingly, I will never purchase shoe online again. Great idea but give me the old brick and mortar shoe store.

Very nice sandals but despite following the Birkenstock size guide and confirming by email with Birkenstock a size two sizes smaller than I usually wear in non-Birkenstock shoes, the sandals are indeed too small. The returns process - something that previously gave me cause to worry and on this occasion more so - edit: that said, the sandals have been returned and I've been refunded.I've tried a few pairs of Birkenstock Arizona and Milano sandals and the quality varies enough to be quickly noticeable. Damaged / separating leather, glue smeared beyond contact surfaces, contact surfaces not glued in places, holes for buckles not evenly spaced and beginning in different places on the straps and two pairs that I have bought have not been size labelled correctly. For the money paid, in my opinion, not good enough. Birkenstock customer service by email is also very poor.Amazon service is excellent - I think it is beyond what can be reasonably expected.Edited as I think originally I was too harsh on Amazon and too lenient on Birkenstock. I have returned my last pair of Birkenstock sandals, it seems, after many pairs tried, they aren't for me. Marketing wizardry? I'm inclined to think so.
Great service, awesome shoes!

I'm so happy with everything about this purchase! The shoes look and fit amazing. I'm a US women's size 8. I ordered the 39N and they fit perfectly. I'm glad I went with the narrow fit. Otherwise I think my foot would have been too narrow for the shoes. The shipping was very fast even with it coming from London to the US. It only took 4 days. The patent leather is a bit more shiny than I anticipated but not a deal breaker. I'm so happy with them!
Vegan = Not Leather
Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2018
I actually ordered this style by mistake. They are not leather. But for a synthetic leather shoe, they sure felt comfortable when I tried them on and I love the stone color! The description for this product on this page is wrong. It reads:LeatherSynthetic solePlatform measures approximately 1/2"Original cork footbed for comfortFully adjustable strapsShock-absorbing solePlease see Sizing Chart for US size conversionsThis product is synthetic. The name "vegan" would now make sense to me that they are synthetic, but I just thought it was a style name and liked the color. I returned them because if I am to pay this price for a shoe, it will certainly not be made of pleather. I am sadly having to return them (the color) and exchanging them for a darker gray, leather pair.

I got the narrow, navy patant leather, 2 strap with big silver buckles, birko footbed & white soles. The 'narrow' fit my foot best as I don't have to scrunch toes to keep them on as I walk; I could wear them straight out the box. They have quite a flexible look in that they are smart for a sandal; lovely colour too.

Had a bit of pain when first wearing due to leather straps and just generally not worn in.Have worn for a week or so now and my god they are so comfortable even with my fat wide (size H) feet!!I love these shoes, they are great and this listing is for genuine pair which arrived in good time and as expected.I am size ten and ordered 43 (a size 9) as advised as they do come up big.Just love them. They look slick AF also with shorts or trousers.Get on the bandwagon, you will not regret it!

After many recommendations to try these shoes, I finally purchased my first pair. I have not been disappointed! However, I was warned it takes a while to break them in and it hurts a bit to get there (still in the process of breaking them in), but they are progressively getting more comfortable. Can't wait until they don't hurt anymore.

Very pleased, got on prime day. Was a bit worried they might be fake, but box and label identical to genuine ones (recently bought on high street). Love the gloss white patent.They are technically narrow fit, but the footbed again seems same size as a regular pair, but the difference is the holes on the straps. Unless you have a really wide foot I'd say they're fine.

Love these, arrived promptly, really comfy. Don't be put off if you have wide feet just because it says 'narrow feet' Birkenstocks are very generous with their size and i ordered another pair which were marked 'Regular' they had to be returned as too wide as was not sure

I have several pairs, I find that Im between a UK 7 and 8 and that the fit is wide, so if you're ordering your first pair, maybe try them on in a shop first.

They are perfect, so comfortable. The straps are adjustable. They size really well, I would probably recommend to go a half a size up.

Very comfortable from first wear. Usually wear gizeh which can rub between toes initially so it was nice to be able to wear these all day from the first time of wearing. Look great too, black patent more feminine than the leather.

Fit well but leather straps quite hard and unforgiving at first. I am having wear them in by wearing them for short periods at first. Much improved after I took a blade to the inside edges of the straps and scraped the sharp edge off. I think they will be great in the end, but not an instant hit!
