Reviews mention

  • Exceptionally comfortable cushioning
  • Lightweight, travel-friendly construction
  • Machine-washable, easy maintenance
  • Sustainable, minimalist aesthetic
  • Limited arch support comfort
  • Faster-wearing outsole tread
  • Wool uppers stain easily
  • Toe-box fabric thins

Allbirds earns strong reviews for exceptional comfort, light weight, and machine-washable ease, making Tree Runners, Wool Runners, and loungers reliable everyday and travel shoes; however, many note limited support for long walks/runs, faster tread wear and toe holes, wool styles running warm and staining easily, narrow sizing without half sizes, and a polarizing, sometimes “dated” look. Overall, the brand is good for casual wear and sustainability-minded buyers, but not ideal for heavy-duty performance or those needing robust arch support and long-term durability.

  • Allbirds makes consistently cozy & stylish shoes, my favorites are the white wool runners, which are the perfect daily white sneaker to dress up or down. Fit is true to size. Fun branding, affordable, and great customer service!

    Feedback

    More colors in the Wool Dwellers!!!

  • I had the original Allbirds which were really comfy shoes but they lose their shape really quickly.

    Feedback

    I love the company and mission. The shoes are good generally but they would get sore to wear for full days over time due to the lack of support and loss of shape.

  • Great shoes! Super comfy, and the only ones I've been buying for a few years now. Also love seeing how transparent and focused they are on their environmental impact

    Feedback

    Durability of the shoes... Two pairs both started getting holes in the same spots after less than a year

  • I tested out a whole bunch of these at the store. The sizing isn't flexible, and so if it fits you it's likely amazing (my husband loves these) but none of the sizes fit me and they don't make half sizes. I really wanted these to work out for me because they look great, but was quite disappointed that their sizing is so restrictive.

    Feedback

    Would love the allbirds team to expand their size range.

  • I have had my allbirds for about 4 months now and I absolutely love them. They are extremely comfortable as I am on my feet all day, I wear them running at the gym, and they are easy to clean!

  • Got a pair of Allbirds sneakers and I love them. Very comfortable and stylish at the same time.

  • I purchased the wool runners and really enjoy them. They are very comfy!

    Feedback

    I'd like to see more styles introduced. It seems like Allbirds are starting to create more and more styles so that's good to see. I don't think I'd personally buy the same style (wool runners for instance) just in a different color. So I can see how that would limit repeat purchases.

  • Really comfortable shoes that don't need any time to break in and keep your feet warm.

    Feedback

    I don't love the aesthetic, looks a little bulky with some outfits.

  • Comfortable. Great fit. Doesn’t do well in rain.

    Feedback

    Not particularly breathable.

  • Comfortable, high quality shoes

  • Super comfortable shoes, great mission, fantastic team.

    Feedback

    The aesthetic of the shoes isn’t a personal favourite, but totally subjective.

  • Great try and return policy

    Feedback

    The soles of the shoes still need more cushioning for me to have it beat other sneakers

  • Definitely would recommend to a friend, they are comfy enough for all day wear but wouldn't recommend them for a running shoe.

  • Love my Allbirds! I have the Tree Runners and the Tree Dashers. Both are absolutely amazing. My white tree runners are already starting to become worn on the bottom, mostly because they’re my primary shoe to wear when walking around SF. The Tree Dashers are great because they offer extra support, and I like the unique “slip on” design (there’s no ‘lip’ where the laces are). Both pairs are stylish and are light to wear, yet supportive for walking (I wouldn’t run in the dashers though)

  • These are my favorite shoes in my closet. I own two pairs, one for summer and one for winter. I'll probably end up buying another pair this year because of some new styles they put out, and I'm generally a superfan of Allbirds.

    Feedback

    More designs.

  • I love the ease of ordering online, the flexibility of colour and style. Plus the sustainability of the shoe construction.

    Feedback

    I have the type of feet that need support so I struggle a bit with Allbirds in terms of arch support.

  • My husband and I are obsessed with Allbirds, they are one of the comfiest, most diverse shoes we ever owned. The fact that you can just throw them in the washer is a major convenience

    Feedback

    New looks and designs would be much appreciated, as not all of them match different outfits.
