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.

Very comfy
Fantastic brand, lots of options to choose from. Very good quality. Long lasting.
The best quality for price. So comfy, stylish, and they last forever.
What’s not to love about birks?! Classic. Comfy. Reasonably priced.
I have been wearing Birkenstocks since the age of 7. I will always choose my Birkenstocks over any other shoe regardless of where I am going. NOT TO MENTION THE ARCH SUPPORT FOR MY FALLEN ARCHES!! LOVE LOVE LOVE.
Really stirdy
I have had my birkenstocks for over four years and they still look brand new and in just as great condition. Well worth the investment

I have owned a pair of birks (the classic sandal style with the two straps) for a few years and have not experienced the same amount of comfort that people rave about. I have size 11 feet so that might be part of the issue but I always experienced a bit of rubbing on the top / side of my foot when I wore them for too long.
My Birkenstock is my go to in the summertime, or anytime.

Birkenstocks are amazing. So so easy to slide on to run out the door, plus they are stylish and comfortable! Will continue to purchase Birkenstocks for the rest of my life.
pretty good for what they are but the cork bottoms are painfully when they rub against your feet.
i had the cork toe loop ones and they were so awful! they're super hard to clean and the toe straps broke off in the first year.... wouldn't purchase again.

Fabulous forever! One Birkenstock or another will always be the height of style. In the 2013 boho years it was the Gizeh/the multistrap Mayor, followed by the Arizona in the norm core/Tumblr years, this then became the sherpa Arizona (goop/Gwyneth-core), and now it's the Boston clog. They're comfortable, they're foot-training, they're eternal. Love Birkenstock.
I'm a life long birk and sock wearer. Enough said. <3
I have the Birkenstock Arizona Evas and I do like them, I feel like maybe they are not as high quality as the leather versions. I've had them for less than a year and had some issues with them ripping a bit around the toes. I do like them as an easy shoe to slip on and wear for errands or to the beach.
Comfortable and in style. I have 3 pairs and they are my go to summer shoe !
Absolutely LOVE these shoes. Maybe they aren't the most gorgeous but they definitely feel incredible and I think they lean into a functional ugliness that becomes funky/chic/stylish. At least in my personal and highly sought after opinion (jk jk jk). There's nothing to improve upon. Perfect as is. I wish they made a platform in the rubber Arizona slides. I need a little height!

Most comfortable shoes I've worn and last forever. I love how fashionable they are getting lately too. Only gripe is if they get wet they go a bit yucky.
The waterproof EVA sandals are truly a gift from the gods. I have taken these things everywhere and they have held up SO WELL and are SO COMFORTABLE. It's basically all I wear during the summer. Flip flops who?
The rubber sandals are a summer must-have - multiple pairs bought, many more likely in the future
