BIRKENSTOCK reviews and discussion
Reviews mention
- Contoured footbed support
- Long‑lasting construction
- Iconic versatile styles
- Adjustable strap fit
- Painful break‑in period
- Water‑sensitive cork sole
- Inconsistent sizing width
- Odor with summer sweat
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.

Really love birkenstocks. They come with a very wide range and have products for wide and narrow feet.
I love my birks, they took some breaking in to become the most comfortable summer shoes. Great quality and hold up against time and lots of wear!
I love my Birkenstocks!!! Pair with everything and just add so much to any outfit. So easy. I love these because I can wear them to work or school and not look like a slob but still be comfortable

Super cute, you can buy them at most retailers. They are very VERY comfortable and fit to your foot rather than the other way around.

These shoes are my summer holy grail. SO cute and the soles are cork, so it shapes to your foot. I can walk a half marathon in these, they're THAT comfortable. They last about a year in my experience, I've rebought the same ones three summers in a row. The only downside is that once the cork base starts to crack/crumble, its a pretty fast degradation until you need to replace them. They have a re-soling business, but the cost to resole is basically the cost to buy new, which ends up being easier :( Otherwise, a STAPLE shoe in my life.
Love these sandals. great quality. Ive had mine for so long now. Super long lasting.

could look a bit more stylish
A classic brand, versatile and melds to your foot for a perfect wear! I have the Arizona sandals, the plastic EVA stocks which are perfect for the pool, and the Boston clogs. Each is great in its own way.
These are super comfortable. Some people think they’re really ugly but I don’t mind them. It’s a good alternative to flip flops. Gives terrible tan lines. Very versatile. Great quality

I’ve had the same pair of Arizona sandals for over five years, they are always my go-to for running errands. Durable and fun to wear, I would buy more but my first pair is still going strong.

Birkenstocks were a surprise love for me, it was awkward at first, like a blind date with great posture. But once they softened to my feet, it was over. Now they’re my go-to for everything from dog walks to farmer’s market
These shoes feel amazing! I love wearing them whenever I shop or take a walk or go to the beach! These have been the best shoes I have ever worn! I can't wait to buy more of theses in all sorts of colors!
I have had my Birkenstocks for years and every one in my family also has them. We all have the slides and are the best daily wear sandal. However, i got the clogs about a year ago but still can’t seem to get them to be comfortable yet!
Wish I could afford to buy all of their shoes, but I live in their clogs and sandals
I remeber being and adolescent and wearing birkenstock 24/7. Living in a country and city where its summer pratically year round, those were the best acessories anyone could have. 20 years later i am still here in love with them
Wear my clogs year round! Absolutely comfortable and helps my feet pain
I like the look of Birkenstocks on other people but I think they look weird on me. They're also not the most comfortable thing in the world which is a little bit odd but I have mixed feelings on Birkenstock.
Everyone should have a pair! I wear them around the house, for traveling, for walking the dog, but also for casual outings. I love them! My husband loves them too. Little by little they are innovating more in terms of design, which is appreciated!
I freaking love my Birkenstocks and cant wait to get more pairs in the future. They are the perfect throw on or everyday shoe and they make ever outift look so cute. I really love these in the summertime!
Warranty and quality is amazing. They always have the cutest styles to match all different ages and sizes.
