BIRKENSTOCK earns strong reviews for comfort that improves as the contoured cork footbed molds to the foot and for durability that can span years, with icons like Arizona, Boston, Mayari, and EVA slides praised for everyday wear. Reviews also flag drawbacks: a painful break‑in for many, sizing confusion and wide fit, soles and cork that can crack or wear quickly (especially when wet), occasional odor and chafing in heat, and mixed experiences for flat or very high arches.

I love my birkenstock clogs. Super comfy and so easy to throw on. I will say the clogs had little to no break in time but my sandals took awhile. Overall i think they are a great shoe that is build to last you for years.

I have the EVA version and I like the look of them. I may need some time to still break them in to get a bit more comfortable. The logo on the shoe where my arch sits actually tickles my foot. That is the one negative that I have found.

Terrible experience, I paid more than $150 for a shoe and it destroyed in less than 4 months and they are not support customers for a refund or replacement. Never trust them. The issue was totally related to the manufacturer but they won’t support. Terrible experience

As someone with a wide forefoot and bunions, I'm so grateful to Birkenstock for having comfortable options for me. I have their Boston clogs, Arizona slides, and some of their strappy sandals. I also just got the sherpa lined boots, and they're great, too! I really like their sneakers for travel. The cork footbed helps my feet and heels not hurt after long days of travel and walking around.

Don't shop here! We were scammed out of 3000SEK from here.. A big bunch of *****!
I can't believe I haven't reviewed Birkenstock yet- I am a Birkenstock believer. I have the Arizona sandals, the Boston clogs, and the Arizona Eva sandals. They are my routine, "slip-on" shoes: the Arizona for the summer, the clogs for the winter, and the Eva for the pool/beach. These shoes really stand the test of time- the Eva's definitely get the most wear and tear, but that's alright with me (they're plastic!). I had my first pair of Arizona sandals for over ten years- and then I finally realized they had fallen apart enough to purchase another. Not sure if these sandals will stay "in style" forever, but I think they're timeless enough. And once I reached my 30's, I'm more about comfort than anything else anyways.

These clogs are seriously the best! They’re so comfortable once broken in, and I love how versatile they are, I can wear them around the house, running errands, or even dressed up a little. The quality is amazing, and they’ve held up so well. Definitely one of those shoes I reach for all the time.

I have high arches and often get foot pain from wearing slides. Birks are the sandals I can wear without that (at least not as much!). The solid, sturdy footbed supports my foot, and I love both the look of these sandals and the convenience of sliding them on. I'm surprised the Kyotos aren't more popular!

A classic/icon for a reason - comfortable, stylish, everyday shoes that have maintained their vision time and time again with minimal iterations. I love the "upscale" look of these dark green sandals with gold hardware - I can easily dress them up or down.

I am so glad that Birks are back! I lived in these in high school and college, and was looking for a solid recovery shoe after long runs. I didn’t think to go back to Birkenstocks because they’re not cushy, but man do they provide the support that you need for weary feet! As always they take a few weeks to break in, but once you do, they’re perfect.

I come from a long line of Birkenstock wearers and let's just say I will not be the one to end that bloodline. I have had the same pair of sandals for about 5 years and they are only just now beginning to show signs of need for repair. Some of the best shoes ever!

If you're looking for a blend of comfort, support, and minimalist style, Birkenstock shoes are hard to beat. Known for their signature cork footbeds and orthopedic design, these shoes have earned a cult following for a reason.

Oh how I love thee... ever since 1994 I've been a fan! You enter college, you get Birks! Here we are many (many) years later and I'm still buying Birkenstocks. These fuzzy Arizonas are my current obsession. As soon as I noticed wear in the heel of my navy pair, I freaked and immediately ordered a green pair for fear of being without. I literally wear them all day and night, in and out of house. They are so freaking comfy, and in my opinion cute af. The problem I have is the expense (they're not the cheapest) but oh how I love them. You only live once – may as well be cute and comfy!

This sandal is so sleek and easy to style. I can wear it at home while i'm cooking or if i need to run errands i can keep the same sandal on. Its lasted me a while and has held up nicely. i would get more colors

I absolutely love my Birkenstock Arizona sandals. They are so comfortable, sturdy, and well made. I wear them everywhere from the beach to long walks, camping trips, and even in the water. The quality is incredible and they truly lasted me years. I would definitely buy another pair if mine got lost.

I love this sandal! Super comfortable and it goes with everything. I wear mine all summer long and for every occasion. They hold up pretty well and one pair will normally last me 2-3 summers before I replace with a new pair.

I’ve been a loyal Birkenstock customer for years and have always loved their brand and quality. However, about five months ago I purchased a pair of the work Birkenstocks, and I’ll never buy from them again. The right sole completely tore in half, and when we reached out to customer service, they had us send the order number and photos — only to deny replacing even the one damaged shoe. For the price, I could’ve bought four pairs of Skechers that would’ve lasted longer. Very disappointed in both the quality and the lack of support from a brand I’ve trusted for so long.

Birkenstock sandals have been in my closet for over 30 years and they continue to evolve into a shoe with a fabulous look and feel. My daughters wear them with everything from cutoffs to formal gowns, and the options available make every shoe a perfect complement to any outfit or outing.

I bought $160 Madrid sandals and wore them less than a dozen times and the sole separated from the cork. They told me this was not a manufacture defect and they would not replace it because it appears I forced the 2 pieces apart. Not sure how they think I could or want to force able separate my soles of my brand new shoes. They also mentioned their product may not last more than a year. Their quality is definitely diminishing and they clearly don’t stand behind their product even after a few uses.

Birkenstock Air 2.0 - Terrible product and worse customer service. Both shoes broke after less than 2 months. They had zero wear and tear anywhere except where they cracked, and both shoes cracked in the exact same place, yet they said, "based on the time frame you have had these and the overall condition of the footwear, this does not appear to be a manufacturing defect." So no refund or replacement. They are liars who make a bad product. #birkenstock #garbage #liars
