Florida Sandal

I ordered these because the listing said they are b width. They are not. I received the normal Birkenstock width, which is d, not narrow width. So I had to return them. The listing needs to reflect that Birkenstocks “normal” width is wide or D width and that B is their narrow width This listing makes it look like you are buying narrow width, but you are not. These are regular. Bummed bc I loved the sage color.

Probably my favorite style of Birkenstocks I’ve owned. More stylish than the normal and goes with everything. Only cons are it runs slightly bigger & wider than other styles I have in the same size & the footbed is hard & not the quality of most Birkenstocks.

They are prettier in person and I love the gold buckles. As usual for Birkenstocks, they are super comfortable and fit my wide feet so well!

Pros: They look very pretty on my feet and that’s the 2 stars. Cons: I’ve worn these twice - both times it gave me blisters on the inner side of my foot. The fit feels ok since i tried these in-store but i’ve noticed the straps are rubbing on my skin every time i wore these walking around. Yesterday I walked to the mall and shopped around. 2 hours in and i could barely walk because of these torture devices on my feet and had to get an Uber home. The soles are really hard so they’re not comfortable. For $154, ABSOLUTELY do not recommend!

I love this style with the thinner straps as a slightly more refined, feminine alternative to the chunkier Arizona, but without the toe loop of Mayari. The sandcastle color is a perfect versatile taupe that works with pretty much any color outfit. I also love that the straps and footbed are all one color making these sleeker and less “Birkenstock” looking. I walk a lot living in NYC and have spine issues, I wanted a more supportive sturdy sandal that would still look okay with jeans, maxi skirts etc (I’m in my 20s). The low rating on these should be ignored. Several of the reviews are irrelevant rants, or complaints from people unfamiliar with Birkenstocks and the break-in process. The review saying the footbed is hard and “not the same quality” as other Birkenstocks clearly is not familiar with the two styles - soft footbed and hard/original footbed. These are the original footbed. Longer to break-in but more durable. These were my first Birkenstocks and I made sure to read about the proper break-in process and i was able to wear these comfortably after only a few days, but it did require some thought and effort getting the right size, adjusting the straps properly, wearing with socks etc. Once broken in, they are comfortable and effortless. I even feel my entire posture chain (feet/ankles/knees/back) improve when wearing.

I was totally disappointed with my purchase as I picked up a berkenstoke footwear from sale rack and ask the sales associate to get the second half of the pair couldn't find spending half an hour that was unbelievable for so reputed store like yours and we returned home without buying it. I am thinking to put this incident on social media so customers think about it before they try to shop at NORDSTORM.
