   I love this sandal, they’re stylish and have great support. The footbed is contoured, comfortable, but it’s not squishy so there is actual support and your ankles won’t roll. I have a weaker arch and do not have shoulder pains when I wear this sandal. The grip on the sole doesn’t slip on tile. So it’s great for the house, for the store, and casual wear. I might order another pair to have around. I’m a size 10 and wearing a 40.

   I bought these for my mom for support on the arch and after a foot surgery she had. She’s so thrilled with them, and I tried them on, I’m going to purchase for myself. love them, extremely supportive. I was worried these would be slippery and make her prone to falling, but I don’t see these being a slippery material that would make her foot slide around to make her fall.

   After tearing my plantar fascia 5 years ago, I bought my first pair of Birkenstock’s to wear after I got out of my cast and loved them. We just moved to Florida 3 months ago and when I saw these I had to have them for wearing to the beach! I absolutely love them!!!!

   Wanted a navy slide for summer. The color is nice—- not too royal. Bought my normal Birkenstock size & the fit is just like my leather Birks.

   I usually wear a 7.5 and I ordered a 6/6.5 because I heard to size down. Glad I did, the fit was perfect, but you need to size down one full size for sure.

   Much smaller than the normal Birkenstock sizing. I have several pairs of Birks, all the same size. This item is definitely a size smaller, and quite narrow, in comparison to normal.

    I am a Birkenstock girl. Have worn them for years and love them. I had never tried the slides so I thought i would. I read a lot of the reviews and most were good, but one stated that these were not up to Birkenstock standards. That could not have been a better statement. Honestly, my Nike slides feel better. I did not feel like I had any support or comfort with these. I wore them around the house hoping I could make myself like them, but it was a no go. I am sad about that and am returning them.

    I’m a big Birk fan (have six pair of boots, four sandals and five clogs/slides), but these just did not work for me. Toes splayed oddly (unlike Birk’s regular leather-lined cork footbed), and top of foot stuck to the poor quality plastic in an uncomfortable, tight way. For this kind of pool/beach/spa sandal, try Oka-B Maxwell–our family has five pair as they work for everyone.

    Another case of the 36 being too small and the 37 being too large. Usually wear a 36 in Birks, but these are much shorter than my others.

    Tey were true to size. The top of the sandal is snug. I geta blister on the top of my toe when I wear them for more than 30 min.

    The birkenstock sandals run wide, if you have a narrow foot they are regular width. They do not come in narrow width. I sized down 1/2 my regular size. The 1/2 size down fit much better in the width and the length.

    For some reason my left foot felt narrow. The right foot was good. I do not know if it may have been a defect. Overall they are good and I loved them However, I had to return them. The Zappos Customer Service Associate was very helpful in my issue.

    Unfortunately BOO!! I was so excited for these but just running errands leaves a blister on my foot under where the slide part is on the top.

    Thank goodness I didn’t size down! I am a 7.5 in almost every pair of shoes and the 39 fits perfect. My husband is a 9.5 mens. I got him a 42 and a 43. The 42 were too small. I wouldn’t recommend walking long distance until you break them in. Very comfortable, in comparison to other pool slides. I wouldn’t expect the same feel as a standard Birkenstock. These are my go to hanging around shoes.

    I normally wear an 8.5-9 womens. In the Birkenstock Arizona EVA I wear a 39, but had to go up to a 40 in this style because my toes were hitting the edge.

    I’ve been wearing Birkenstock sandals for decades. Always a size 42. I have three other pair of Barbados sandals and they fit fine. This is the second pair I’ve tried in the Ultra Blue color, and they’re just a bit too small. Holding them up to my other Barbados, these are about a quarter inch shorter. My toes push up against the front rim and it’s uncomfortable. I guess I shouldn’t expect fantastic consistency in $40 plastic shoes. Still it’s disappointing! Back they go.

    I already have the same pair in black size 39 and mine fit 1/4 inch bigger. Ido not know why but i have had to order a size 9-9.5. we will see. i am not happy that birkenstock’s are skimping on their craftmanship. It is hard to find everything these days that fits right as the pandemic has changed a lot of manfacturing

    I needed something I could get wet, and my go-to for that is Birkenstock EVAs. While they feel hotter than regular Birks since EVA doesn’t breathe, they’re perfect for wet conditions. I picked these because I love the Bold Jade color. It can be difficult to find the nice Birkenstock colors in regular/wide (and I wish they’d remedy that!) so I was happy to find these.
    I got my regular size and they fit as expected. One caveat: you can’t adjust the strap. So they feel just a bit snug, but EVA breaks in and molds to your foot, and it’s quite soft. No pain, just snugness. I’m not saying they run small, since my feet are a little splayed in front and all my shoes do that. It seems to be a standard fit, but I see some reviewers saying they run big and others saying they run small, so do consider your individual foot shape when purchasing.

    These are great! I’m usually an 8.5 and I ordered the 8-8.5 and they fit perfectly. I have gotten so many compliments on these already. They are not any more or less comfortable than your regular pair, but they have been my go-to slides. Love them.
