Customer Reviews Birkenstock Dundee

I love these shoes/boots. I wear the Boston style often and these are just the same with ankles. The ties up are wonderful as they do not slip. Great!

These are supremely comfortable shoes, and surprisingly numerous people have stopped me on the street to compliment them and ask what kind of shoes they are. While they are funny-looking in that typical Birkenstock way, this style is clearly an eye-catcher.

I have been waiting for Birkenstock to come out with something like this for a very long time. They did a great job on this one...in my opinion the best looking product they have ever made. While I agree that there is a flap of suede that you can catch your foot on in the way in, I find that it is easy to work around, and I have had a hard time wearing anything else since I picked these up. Don't sleep on these.

Geez, I love these boots but they are vertically challenged! Length and width are spot on, but as others have said, the vamp is not tall enough at the studs to work well. I wear narrow with a medium arch. Barefoot..just okay. If you want socks w/these for cooler weather, it's an issue. So sad now.

This is my first pair of Birkenstocks and the jury is out on the footbed. That is a significant lump in the the forward part. I have not worn them enough to decide if it is a good or intolerable lump! I usually buy good shoes but this is totally different than any other shoes that I have worn before. Now for my complaint, they are hard to get on with socks on because there is no lining. The suede grabs my sock and pulls it back to a wad in the rear of the shoe as I try to slide my foot in. This is definitely a situation where you are paying for a name. I mean no lining, no grommets around the eyelets, soft sole. You are not getting much for this price really. If it was not for the unusual footbed you could get something of similar quality for much less at Walmart.

While the shoes are typical Birkenstock comfort, they are a little clown shoe-ish in the toe box. I went with my regular EU size, which seems good in length, but look really wide. I was going for a fall bootie look, which I would not say I have achieved. I have worn them several times, but would return them if I had not. I will continue to wear them, as they are comfortable (no issues with the leather flap on the inside as others have noted. I just won't check myself in the mirror. :)

Just got them. Lighter than expected and waiting for them to break in before putting in a more detailed review.

I am struggling with these two, same issue with the material folding when I put the shoes on, if folds forward and it does hurt like the other review says. So I ordered a bigger size, that seemed to help but now I feel like I have clown shoes on because they are like a 1/4 to big. Not sure what to do. If the these didn't have that flap they would be the best shoes ever. Wondering if I should take them in to some sort of shoes repair place and stitch that shut.

They are becoming more comfortable all the time. One thing less than awesome about them is that where the suede upper comes together is open down from the rivet to the sole. It seems to let quite a bit of grass and pebbles in. But it is nice for ventilation.

Leather is very stiff and not very comfortable. Rubs the ankle bone. Not like the normal Birkenstock quality.

First off, I love Birkenstock! However, I agree with other reviewers that these boots have a fatal design flaw. On the inside arch there is a flap of leather on the inside that buckles inward when you put the boots on. This flap digs into my foot and makes them too painful to wear. I see no way to keep these and continue to wear them.

I have owned four pairs (London, Gizeh, Arizona, Milano) of Birkenstocks and a pair of Birki's professional clogs which I wear for eight plus hours a day. I have difficult feet which are wide and I wear a large size for a women(42 in birki speak) I have plantar fascitis and pronate. I absolutely adore Birkenstocks. They are excellent shoes. They have great arch support and are long lasting. Well Worth the price.However, This boot did not fit me well. The top of the boot rubbed against my foot and I found the toe box to be tighter than other Birkenstocks. I decided to return because of poor fit. I also felt these are the least attractive Birkenstocks I have ever bought.

I wear a 42 in Birkenstock Arizonas but this was much too tight across the toe box for my foot. The arch support and footbed in general is excellent though, like all Birkenstocks. These are unfortunately fairly clunky looking since the footbed is exactly the same as an Arizona. I could go to a 43 to get the width I need, but then the anatomical footbed wouldn't match up correctly.

I wish there was no problem with this shoe. Perhaps a design flaw is the cause. When inserting the foot (the left in this case) part of the interior material folds against the foot and is impossible to adjust from the outside. Painful. Not sure if I would try an exchange. Surprising considering the company touts its products' quality and my experience with their products is mostly good.
