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.
By birkilover from Belchertown, MA on 08/10/2008 Pros: Breathable, Cute, Durable, Stable Best Uses: Barbecues, Beach, Going Out, Travel 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: These are very stylish and I get lots of compliments wearing them. The only thing I disliked was the breaking in period - took longer than with all my other Birkenstock sandals.

Breaking In Sparta Leather Sandals By PA Moore from Albuquerque, NM on 08/05/2008 Best Uses: Barbecues, Beach, Travel Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I think these sandals will feel more comfortable once really broke into my feet. I do like the appearance and the narrow width which often is hard to find.
Comfortable from the first wearing By Liz, the dancing librarian from San Diego, CA on 08/04/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Cute, Stylish Best Uses: Works with anything Describe Yourself: Casual, comfort seeker, Stylish Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These sandals remind me of the flip-flops I wore all summer long as a child, but they're more comfortable (no break-in period) and better looking. I live in Southern California and wear sandals all summer, both for work and home, so they get a lot of wear. Birkenstocks can take the abuse of everyday living and look and feel great. Some of their styles look a bit clunky, but Sparta combined stylish looks and the comfort I expect in my Birks.
Oh what happy feet I have! By Mom to All from Seattle, WA on 08/01/2008 Pros: Adjustable straps, Breathable, Comfortable, Cute, Immediately comfortable, Stable Best Uses: Around the house, Going Anywhere, WALKING 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: Since I began wearing Berks I have not had feet problems, I need the arch support. This shoe is so stylish, I wore them the day after I received them to the Zoo, and was comfortable the whole time. I would recommend that someone new to Berks take a little time to get used to the arch. I have tried many shoes, Berks are my walking shoe. This shoe is so cute on, I only wish there were more colors in my size.
