My Arizona Birks are now 21yrs old. My Nana, who passed away in 2012, bought them for me back in 2002. I’ve replaced the soles twice and they are still the most comfortable sandals I’ve ever owned. LOVE THEM!

I liked this vid, most people buy these just because of fashion but they are actually quality footwear, you can even get them resoled once they wear out.. I wear these all day errday during the summers in South-Korea.

I just got rid of a pair I had, they were about 15 years old. They were just "done." Birkenstocks start getting expensive when you venture into different styles, etc. It's heaven!

Bought a black pair (my first pair) of Arizona soft foot bed. 3 weeks later I bought the camo print Arizona (regular footbed). I’m now hooked. Gave away all of my other sandals and would never get any other brand.

Haha I love the honesty of this review. I too think they are ugly and built more for older people. But I'm 32 now, so I am an older person and I now also own a pair of the tan burks. Yet to break mine in though so they are a bit tough on the feet. Cant wait till I fall in love with them though

Just a correction. If you are going to wear your Birks to tear, as long as it doesn’t get wet, it can last up to 15 years. It would look nasty but still wearable.

Quick question about fit. Do your smaller fingers touch the borders? My big toe has ample room but the smaller (larger in my case) fingers ot the side touch a bit the border and feels odd. Going a size bigger is too much though. Was wondering if they stretch with time and this becomes more comfortable. Thanks for the vid

25 years ago. I called these ugly shoes lord boards. We all did. Because we had young feet. Any shoe would work. Now 25 years later I have 7 pairs. 2 slippers. 3 bends, 2 Arizona. My feet love them. I no longer care however the bend sneakers are nice. I wear these to and from airport I do not wear any other shoes anymore. It’s not worth the agony.

@monikabrachetti8585
@monikabrachetti8585 3 года назад
Mesure the length of your feet in mm and put 10mm plus, a shoe of 270 mm. For me my feet are 240mm, I am wearing 39 which is 250mm long. You can find the length of the shoes printed under the size on the shoe. But for this you have to try them in a store. You can find a size finder also on the Birkenstock webside. One advice - don’t buy them too small. You need 5 mm space in front and in the back. And their sizes can be different depending on the style.

Man I love my Birkenstocks. My very first pair I bought back in 1991. At the time my foot was a size 13 EEE wide with my toes a lil big. In two years out grew two pairs of Birkenstocks. In 1993 my foot was a sz15 6 EEEEEE with very fat wide toe that is equally straight across making it for a very very wide foot. My foot is 6 1/2 inches wide my big toe to my little toe. I wish my toes were at a 45 degree angle instead of being straight across so my foot would not be so wide. There's no shoe , sock , or boot that's wide enough to fit my foot. I bought another pair of black suede soft bed Arizona , and a pair of black leather Milano's. And today I'm still wearing both pairs. The only problem I have is just a little narrow for me but that's not Birkenstocks it's because of my foot being so wide. Both of my little toes hang off the footbed of the sandals and that's because of my toes being equally straight across instead of being at a 45 degree angle where they will fit perfectly. I have the same problem with my flip-flops. Because there is no shoe or sock that will fit my foot I tried to switch out between my Birkenstocks and flip flops cuz these two sandals are the only Footwear that will fit hey size 15 6 EEEEEE with very fat wide toe. It is very embarrassing to have feet this big and wide because they cause so much problems for me.

@@MarkKwak yes you do definitely got to find what fits for you when you're in a situation like me. I am glad to that Birkenstock's and flip-flops are working for me. And yes it is very very very difficult for me to find any shoe. I even have trouble trying to find a pair of flip-flops that work. Sometimes I even do things barefooted 👣. What's really frustrating is my boss he is a size 16 EEE wide and he can find shoes , socks , boots flip flops and all with no problem I'm a size 15 6 EEEEEE I can't find nothing. But for one my boss don't have fat wide toes like I do and #2. His toes are at a 45 degree angle instead of straight across. My boss think it's because of me having fat wide toes is why I can't find a shoe that will fit even though my toes are equal to straight across. He said he knows somebody who has toes that are equally straight across like mine and he wear shoes with no problem. Like I said in the winter time it definitely embarrassing when I have to wear sandals barefooted 👣 in 20 - 30 degree temperatures. I see people all the time taking a second look at my feet because they so fat and wide and my little toe is hanging off of the sandals. I appreciate you giving me some positive energy. You your family have a Merry Christmas can I apologize for being so long.

Does the smooth leather need to be treated often to prevent cracking? I was really close to getting the oiled leather version,but the faded, scuffed, and scratched look is not for me. I like to keep it simple and smooth. I guess I'd better order the smooth/ soft bed version (in black ) asap, while I can...and while they're still in stock
