These birkenstock sandals look great, like all birks do, but I had a difficult time keeping my foot in the sandal because of the shearling being too fluffy. I suppose after they are worn awhile & the shearling gets packed down, they may have been ok. Didn’t want to chance it. Returned.

Perfect and I want more and Different types of Arizona Sandal. I love this one for indoor use - and I want a pair similar and in the light blue but without the Shearling. Problem for me is that I love these so much - I don't want to wear them where there is dirt or grime or dogs that drop tics and fleas - that might want to snuggle in the Shearling or my wonderful socks from Birkenstock. And yet - I do want to protect my feet from - dirt, grime, tics and fleas of the world.

I ordered a regular width d/t shearling lining but too wide...needed a narrow which is my normal width in Birkenstock. Not going to go for the narrow though because my foot slips forward in the lining. The shearling makes this shoe too slippery. I love them and they feel great but not for me!

Really comfortable and cute. Fluff isn't shedding on mine, just becomes compressed which is what is to be expected (this is what happens inside your ugg boots when you walk on the shearling).

I took one star off because after a few months of wear I lost a big chunk of the shearling lining on one edge, not even where my foot rubs. I would buy them again anyway, so comfy.

It’s cozy and comfy, I love it...as my toenail just had a procedure done and I had to travel two days after the procedure(for thanksgiving holidays), this pair of shoes was a perfect option in the winter time. It kept my toenails open while kept the rest part of my feet cozy. The only downside is it’s a little bit larger than normal sz37. order half to one size down if your feet are not super wide.

Luckily I had ordered a half size smaller to begin with; I could have ordered even one more size smaller. And they are very wide. I would have ordered Narrow, if I knew. I would have returned, but I've worn them several times already and they are Amazingly Comfortable. I will Definitely order the light colored ones that only come in narrow next time....

I loved this sandal! Love the fur. I wear a 39 and am a size 8.5-9 . Sometimes my Birks are too big as I fall between the sizes. Loved everything about these except...... and this is huge! They bleed black on everything! On my feet bare or with socks. For this price you would think the manufacturer could find a way to prevent this from happening?? I returned them and will probably get another pair without dyed fur. I live in Texas and these are great for winter wear???????????? as long as you don’t get the black that is!

The shearling feels manufactured, almost slippery, not like the shearing Birkenstocks if yesteryear. Dont care for these latest models.

Trying really hard to make these work, but sadly they don’t because my two smallest toes are right on the edge. I ordered in my regular size and one size larger which was too big.

I am returning these because of the sticker warning that the dye will rub off on your feet. I understood that the black dye will wear off and as a result, I bought these, which I don't think carried the warning in the website description. But maybe I missed it. A shame because I think they would be warm and comfortable in the winter. If the dye doesn't bother you, go for it.

These would be great except For the fact that there’s a very strange way is it the toe pieces sewn on the left foot which creates a rather sharp piece of leather sticking out that wraps against my toe. So I’m returning these. They also seem very very wide and I have a wide foot. I had to put the buckles on the very tightest call in order to have them stay on my feet. Sadly I must return them.

I have been wearing Birkenstocks for over 30 years and generally love them. These were disappointing. The quality is just not what I have come to expect from Birkenstock. I was hoping the shearling would add comfort and warmth. It may, but the quality of how these were made didn't make it so that I was willing to find out. The fit was great; I went for the regular width to allow for the added padding. Sadly, there was a clump of shearling that fell off before I could even try the shoes on. I'm going to stick with the non-shearling Birkenstocks going forward.

I love these fuzzy Birkenstock’s, so comfortable and warm! My only complaint is that I wish I would have bought a lighter color as the black is turning my white socks and bottoms of my feet black. Buy a pair to keep your feet warm!

Dye comes off on your feet! I love these Birks - they are so comfortable but the dye comes off if you wear them with your bare feet. Ugh! My soles are black at the end of the day. That is why it's a 3 star. I am deciding whether to return them.

The fur lining on the inside of the shoe is slippery. I've tried the color Mink with shearling and it was not slippery. I will need to reorder the Mink version.

I am so disappointed with these Birkenstocks. The fit is horrible and the quality of the shearling feels super cheap. I wouldn't recommend buying these. I gave the style 4 stars bc they look really cute. Otherwise, they are a no go.

The construction of this shoe is very poor as other reviewers mentioned. It feels like the shearling is barely attached.

I ordered and return these two times both having excess glue in the arch area which made them very uncomfortable and impossible to wear.

I’m pretty surprised by the dramatic drop in quality from Birkenstock. I’ve been a loyal customer for quite sometime and even own these in a different color that was purchased last year. After receiving one pair with defective straps held on with hard sharp glue, I exchanged for the same item hoping this was a one off. Nope! The straps are all glued on now and not very well. The second pair came with the straps already coming off the shoe. For $170 I expect just little bit of quality control.

Great looking slipper, but I never liked Birkenstock hard footbeds. The wool covering does not make it any more comfortable to wear. My feet hurt after a short time just standing in them

My friend has these same shoes, which she bought 1 or 2 years ago, and I’m always wearing hers — so cute and comfy that I finally decided to buy my own. Unfortunately they arrived with a sharp piece of plastic (or glue?) on the interior near the big toe area. Unwearable. Returning :(
