These are my first Birkenstocks I own, I have bought the "knock-off" brand before and been halfway successful....my judgement: I'd rather spend $10 on fakes, than $40+++ on these real ones. They are NOT as comfortable as I had heard, nor are they any nicer than the fakes. Big waste of money. The only thing I liked was the silver color they came in...

I love my new Birkenstock sandals!!! I've never owned a pair until now. I have foot pain and was told I needed arch support. These sandals offer just that. Takes a little breaking in at first but then they form to your own foot. They look great too. The uppers are water resistant and wipe clean easily.

The sandals themselves were great. I love Birkenstock and was excited to see the great pricing Amazon had on these. BUT...I received the wrong size, regular when I wanted narrow. I'm not sure if it was a simple mistake or if the stock person doesn't understand Birkenstock's sizing. (The colored in foot or open foot on the footbed of the shoe representing narrow or regular.) When I returned the sandal for the correct size they said they were out of the size I originally ordered. It's unclear to me weather or not they really understood the sizing. I will be hesitant to order Birks from Amazon again. Although, the return process was easy and I did receive my money back. I'm just curious if they did have more of the correct size in stock if I would have received the same size or the correct size. The quality of the shoe is excellent, receivingthe correct one, questionable.
