By County Bumkin from Davis, California on 11/10/2008 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Cute Sizing: Feels full size too big Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Cute and funky, and generally comfortable except for the piece that goes between the toes tends to chafe. Watch out for sizing - they run big.

By jemrn from toledo, ohio on 09/04/2008 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Cute, Durable, Stable Best Uses: Barbecues, Beach Describe Yourself: Casual, Stylish Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: my first birkenstocks. these are pretty cute...sort of the gladiator look which is popular now. i'm mid-20s and have resisted birks because most are not attractive to me. i'm an rn and need to take care of my feet. these happily replaced flip-flops all summer.
By daogirl from los angeles, ca on 09/03/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Cute, Durable, Stable Best Uses: Barbecues, Beach, Going Out Describe Yourself: Alternative, Casual, Stylish Sizing: Feels half size too big Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I love these sandals! Most of the time, Birks are too clunky for me, but these seem to be the most delicate looking (not delicate feeling - they're really sturdy!) of all the Birks I have tried on. The blue-gray leather is really pretty - it's really just a cool-toned gray.
A note on size: I usually wear a 9 regular width in US women's shoes, but I tried on both the 39N and 40N in this shoe, and went with the 39N. The 40N was a little long, but would have been ok to wear, except for the fact that the raised toe ridge was in the wrong place, which was annoying. The 39N is an exact fit, my toes are just about at the edge of the shoe - but it's much more comfortable because the toe ridge and arch are in the right spot.
By Pammer1 from Colfax, Wisconsin on 08/12/2008 Pros: Breathable, Cute, Nice color Cons: Breaking them in, Like walking on concrete, Uncomfortable Best Uses: Barbecues, Going Out, Travel, Work Sizing: Feels half size too big Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: The style is so cute and the color goes w/everything!!! Someone told me that it takes a LONG-G-G-G time to break 'em in. Do they get softer? I made the mistake of wearing them all day, the first day I wore them--TOTAL MISTAKE--did my feet take a beating. Someone advised 1/2 days for at least a month. I hate to return them cause they're so cute, got them at such a good price, and I need good arch support!!! However, cushiness is important as well. I know other people just luv them!! I hope I will too in time.

The only thing I disliked was the breaking in period - took longer than with all my other Birkenstock sandals.
