Customer Reviews Birkenstock Sydney

They are wonderful. However, the size was just a little bigger then my other size 36 Birkenstock's. Love them.

I was disappointed as the color looked to be a shade of blue in the picture and I was looking for blue. Even though the color states onyx it was confusing as I thought onyx to be black. They were neither blue nor black, but a dark grey silvery color. Since I liked them, I kept them. I have about sixteen pairs of Birkenstocks, mostly Arizonas and Sydney as they are my favorites. I wear them everyday through every season with or without socks. They cured my plantar fasciitis.

Great first Birkenstock sandal! This is my first Birkenstock and I was a little nervous at first to be spending so much, but now I realize it was an investment. At first they felt stiff and heavy, but the more I wore them (after a few hours) the more they felt like they were softening up and almost molding to my feet. I have an average width foot and the regular was perfect. If you wear an 8 - 8 1/2 sandal, then order a 39. Hope this was helpful! Also the antique blue nubuck is really nice. Would probably even go with dressier clothing. It is almost dark gray (great neutral).

Beautiful sandals!!! I just received these today. I ordered the polar blue, they are so pretty and feminine looking. I think this is my new favorite Birkenstock. Of course they are comfortable as well. I won’t wear any other brand of sandals.

Beautiful Black Patent - This is my 18th pair of Birkenstocks. I purchased this pair to go with dresses and pantsuits. They are beautiful! I highly recommend this shoe. Had painful feet sores (plantar warts) until I started wearing Birkenstocks. I am a diabetic and these shoes are perfect. Great for people looking for wide widths also.

Happy with my Birkenstocks - I am very happy with my new Birkenstock Sydneys. I have "fallen arches" and need the arch support. Few sandals have the support. I had a pair of Milanos (?) with a back strap for 16 years - repaired once. I thought I wanted something a bit more feminine and the Sydneys are just right.

Comfortable - I have other Birks, so I know they feel great. I just had knee surgery and wanted something with plenty of arch support. This is a great shoe for support! The pearlized leather strap is attractive too. I normally wear a wide shoe, and the regular width had room to spare. This is my favorite sandal.

Birk Sydney - I bought these sandals to replace my Birk Arizona’s, which were destroyed by my dog and were the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. I wore them almost exclusively last summer. The Arizona wasn't available in my size and color, so I got the Sydney. Actually the style is a little more feminine and flattering than the Arizona, just as comfy, and I expect will hold up just as well. I have wide feet, and these shoes are a blessing for my feet. I also highly recommend Finn Comfort shoes and sandals.

Sydney Sandals - These sandals are very comfortable and breathe well too. I have the Arizona (wide 2 strap) and the Florida (thin 3 strap) but this sandal has just enough stability and lots of comfort. I really like the distance between the straps.

Dressy Birk - I ordered this in the "pearl" metallic blue color and it looks dressier than regular Birkenstocks. Very sharp look. The straps aren't as soft right from the start as their suede or nubuck versions, but in time that will be just perfect.

A slightly different look - White/pearl color great for summer. They are breaking in nicely - almost there. Birks need a bit to conform to your feet and are a bit like wearing a board until then - but well worth the wait. They fit like my Arizonas and my Florida - but I like it that they look a bit different. Straps a bit shorter than others but work great.

These are my first pair of Birkenstocks and I can honestly say that they are the only brand of sandals I will ever wear from now on. They are so comfortable in the way they mold to your feet. I wear my Birkis all day long and my feet (which are flat and troublesome) feel great. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a cute comfy sandal. Also, Zappos is so awesome to let you exchange them until you get the perfect fit. Zappos & Birkis are a terrific combination!

This was my third buy, services were just as promised with no question, no charge return and money credited to my account rapidly. As for the ones I kept - I'm a Birkenstock girl from way back - love them. For folks new to Birks, wear them in gradually - they might take some getting used to.

I have tile floors that weary my feet. These are the perfect solution for summer or (with socks!) any season. My feet are very happy with the excellent arch support.

Love my new Birks. Color is great - goes real good with Levi's. I had bought another pair also, but wasn't what I had in mind. The return process was a simple as could be. I'm a Zappo-ette now.

I appreciated the speedy delivery (and no postage charge!) of the shoe I ordered. I ordered a narrow, and it fits well. I like everything about it.

Birkenstock Sydney - I just ordered these sandals (in black patent) for my winter house shoes so I can wear socks with them. They are the BEST for support and comfort and love the patent look. They'll be cute outside in the summer too.

Classy look - This shoe is so good lookin’; finally a pair of Birkenstocks that look dressy.

Helped my poor aching feet! After having my 3rd baby and walking around in summer shoes without arch support my feet were taking a tole. I had a pair of Birkenstocks in the late 90's which I loved so much I wore out but never replaced and I decided to give them another shot. After placing my order with Zappos I received my new Birks the next day. I immediately put them on and instantly felt relief from the supportive footbed. The shoes took about 1 week to break in (my arch was a little red from the material of the footbed). I usually wear a 9 1/2 - 10 and size 42 works perfectly for me.

Comfy and cute as the Orlando - I've worn the Birkenstock Orlando for over ten years (literally: I wore out one pair) and am very partial to that style. They are super comfortable and adjustable and the straps look nicer than the Florida - the other triple strap. The Sydneys are my new second favorite: nicely adjustable with a secure fit at the ankle and a pretty shape to the straps. Wish they came in brighter colors.

Great Look! The Pearl Sydney is not just great looking. It is one of the most comfortable Birks I own. The color dresses up the shoe a lot.

Love It! What a great shoe! I love the patent leather look on the Birk. It dresses it up just a little bit, but you still have the comfort of a Birk. Also, I have worn Birkenstocks for about 13 years and I have always bought 'medium' or 'regular'. Zappos noted that a Birk 'narrow' is actually an American standard width. I ordered narrow and it fit great! The shoe looked more streamlined and better fitting than my past Birks that I had bought in stores with the help of a salesperson. I love Zappos! Great site, excellent customer service and they stayed true to their price match guarantee. I found the shoe for less on another site and Zappos met the price, less $1.00. I will always shop with Zappos.

I ordered this lovely dark purple Sydney in a 40 Narrow which is what my silver Mayari is - but it was just too large! Thanks to Zappos' wonderful service I was able to order in a 39 and at first I was afraid it might be a smudge short - but wore it around the house and they are great!! I did take them to my neighborhood Boot Repair guy & he added a new hole in each strap --- now they are scrumptiously perfect!!!! :-)) New Narrow Birk convert!

Yes!!! The Sidney is my favorite Birkenstock. After trying several styles, I have found these shoes to be perfect. They are extremely comfortable AND they are so good looking. Due to numerous sports injuries I need my Birkenstocks. They never disappoint. In this part of Arkansas the main shoe outlets are the feed store & Wal-Mart. Thanks to Zappos I can have my Birkenstocks without a 120 mile to the nearest Birkenstock store.

Comfortable and feminine - I have this shoe in pearlized blue. It is just as comfortable as the classic Arizona, but much more feminine looking. Be sure to follow Zappos instructions on width so you select the correct one.
