Customer Reviews Birkenstock Larisa

I was looking for a replacement pair for a very feminine pair of Birki's that were finally wearing out. I ordered both the Larisa and the Mayari (with the toe strap) and ended up keeping the Larisa. They felt more secure on my feet and definitely looked more feminine. They have broken in very well. They look great with both capris and skirts. I'm already looking forward to next summer when I'll probably wear them every day!

I love these shoes! This is my 4th pair of Birkenstocks, I buy a pair every 3-4 years, because that is how long they last! These took a little longer to break in than the last pair (3 weeks). But now they are as cozy as can be!

Love these shoes, thought I would get blisters from the buckle locations but had no issues whatsoever. I bought these to help treat my plantar fasciitis and they are really comfortable for around the house and day to day business. Would wear at work if I could! I have wide feet and was worried about the regular width; however, that worry was unfounded, they fit great.

As a loyal Birk wearer for 25+ years, I have had multiple styles, and I have to say that this is the most feminine leather pair I have worn. I love them ! I feel like I have pretty feet in this style. I think they will also wear well with socks this winter. They feel just like all other birks with this traditional footbed. If you have never had this type of leather, it does take a few hours of brief wearing to soften up for wearing all day. I highly recommend this style if you want the feel of an Arizona but want to 'pretty up' your feet !

Very cute and comfortable sandals. Very typical Birkenstock fit, which is true to size. Love the vertical leather piece. Gives them a more stylish look than some of their other styles. They're a little more brown than the picture which tends to give them a reddish hue.

I love the style. The leather, however, is a little stiff over the front edge of the toes and will take some breaking in for max comfort and no blisters!

These are lovely. The leather does take a few days to soften up, but once they do, it's like they're made for your feet. The biggest bonus for me is that they are by far the most feminine looking birks I've ever seen. I don't generally think of birks as cute...but these are.

Love them! I'm excited for the pretty style from Birkenstock & appreciate the comfort, as always. The color is really great too, very rich & classy. Zappos is by far the best company with #1 customer satisfaction regardless of the situation!

I have been a serious Birkenstock wearer for about 10 years now and have quite a few pairs (more than a dozen so far). I was looking for a simple brown sandal. Then I found and ordered these. They are perfect! Exactly what I was looking for. I've ordered a ton of shoes through Zappos they always have a great selection and usually have my size. I love this website!

I love Birkenstock, but my only complaint is that not enough styles come in a size 35! I have very small feet, so I have to order a 36 for most styles, which is a little big, but okay. I love the Larisa...they are comfy. I also get that my big toe kind of sits a bit on top of the toe bar thing, but it's not that big of a deal. The footbed will mold to my feet eventually and it shouldn't be a problem. The narrows are a bit too narrow, I prefer the regular, and would get it in a 35 if only I could. Great shoes and Zappos comes through again!

These shoes are so cute! Super comfortable and they run true to size. I'm very happy with this purchase.

As an avid Birkenstock fan, I really liked the style and fit of these sandals. However, theydid not last as long as I had expected, although, I am hard on my Birkenstock sandals. The foot bed broke at the ball of the foot and the straps stretched out pretty quickly. It just didn't have the same endurance that my other Birkenstock sandals have given me.

Comfortable after long break-in period. The leather is very stiff and needs to form to shape of foot. I had to wear these around the house with socks for a week or so because the strap across the toes was digging into me. I'm wearing them around the house now with bare feet to guarantee all day comfort this spring/summer. I have an old pair of Milanos that were much more comfortable right from the start.

I ordered narrow, but it felt like a medium, even with the straps adjusted snugly. My big toes didn't fit into the toe footprint - they were on top of the ridge separating the big and second toe: uncomfortable.

Love these sandals - I bought them two days before a vacation and after just about one day of breaking in they were comfy enough to wear all day. I get compliments all the time on them. They fit great and I have no problem keeping up with my two year-old in them.

Love them! I have feet problems and not really supposed to wear sandals but these I can, no pain and comfortable all day! Worth every penny! L

I love Birkenstocks - and these are no exception. The only fault I can find is that the toe end of the t-strap slides to the buckle and won't stay in the center but...who can tell on a galloping horse, as my mother would say!

After much confusion during shipping (UPS lost my package!) Zappos got me straightened out quickly and even sent me a new pair while UPS was trying to find my lost package. Best customer service ever! Now for the shoes: I am a little sad that they aren't as comfortable right out of the box as my Mayari Birks I bought three years ago. I got them on sale in a bright yellow, which has faded some, and they were comfortable right out of the box. Apparently I didn't immediately get the straps adjusted correctly on this pair and I have a rough spot on my left foot caused by the vertical strap that is so darned cute (and the main reason I bought this shoe!). I am going to try and soften up the leather of the front strap and this should solve my problems and leave me to freely love my wonderful new hippie shoes.

Love these Birks! This is the first pair I've owned in 20 years. I was so excited to slip them on when they arrived. It instantly took me back to my first pair. They felt the same-foot heaven! They seem to run a little wider than other shoes, but remembered my previous pairs to be the same--consistent for Birkenstocks. I love the style if these; a little more feminine than my old Arizona's, but can still wear w/ socks this fall. I wore them to our small town fair this past weekend w/ lots of walking & no break in. My feet couldn't have been happier when we got home. Think I'll look for a second pair!

The arch support on these is so great. They are the only sandals I've had in a long time that I can do some serious walking in. They stay on my feet without sliding as well. I am always an 8.5 so I ordered an 8 and they fit perfectly. Worth the price. It did take me wearing them about 5 times to break them in and soften the leather. The first few times I wore them they rubbed and felt a little stiff so I was careful to not walk too far.

I have purchased other Birkenstock shoes and sandals and love them. These are really nice. Only problem is the strap right above the buckle on the right foot rubs on my toe. Solved that with some mole skin tape!

Shoe runs bigger than any other size 39 Birkenstock I've ordered. I think I'm on my third pair. This would have been four. I am returning this pair not sure if I will reorder. I like the more delicate styling of this sandal.

I wear Birkenstock sandals in a size 39 and the clogs in a 40. These are perfect in the 39. I got the regular footbed as I have bunions and thought it may be helpful especially with leather for breaking in. These worked for me. It took a few days of wearing for a few hours so I didn't get a sore from breaking in the leather on the top front strap closer to the baby toe side. The strap partially hides the bunion and didn't bother it comfort-wise. This is my fifth pair of Birkenstocks. I had worn them for a few years and then switched to crocs for a few years, but coming back to Birkenstocks as my knees feel better since wearing again and also noticed the callous on the ball of my foot is not bothering me any more. Have to wear the crocs when in water situations, but otherwise Birks are the ultimate in comfort choice footwear and with newer styles in sandals they are hard to beat.

I love these shoes. I would say they run a little big and I always order the same size in Birkenstock. But style and comfort are as to be expected from this brand.

I have a whole closet full of Birkenstocks and love these just as much as all the others! I think these have a more feminine look than some of the other styles, and I personally prefer NOT to have something between my toes because they sometimes give me blisters. These sandals checked all the boxes for me. They were comfortable right out of the box and required almost no break-in time. (Just like 99.9% of all Birkenstocks!) I will say that if you don't have a wider foot (which I actually do) you will probably want to order the 'narrow' width. I purchased the regular and was a little surprised that I needed to adjust the top strap to it's tightest to get the proper fit. The length is just like all the others I have bought. (I wear a 6.5 and ordered a 37...perfect!) My only complaint? That Zappos doesn't have them in more colors!
