Customer Reviews Birkenstock Arizona Essentials

These shoes are very comfortable and just what I was looking for; I did return the Metallic color because I was wanting a black sandal, which the Metallic appears to be in the photos but in fact are silver, so exchanged for Black. The Zappos representative who I spoke with to make the exchange was excellent, which I have come to know and LOVE from Zappos customer service!

These Birks are super cute and great to just slip on. I love the bold, bright orange. That being said, they have nowhere near the comfort level of ones with cork soles. They are just plain rubber sandals. I would suggest saving some money and looking for a knockoff version at Target or somewhere-they’ll probably be the same comfort level at half the price.

These were size 44 but they were smaller than an old pair of size 43. What's going on? Were they mislabeled (both old and new have size printed on them)?

Perfect fit in size 12 for me. So light weight and so comfortable, the perfect summer sandal. I spent hour after hour in them on vacation and my feet stayed happy.

Fit and size are great. Details: I wear 9 ½ shoes, M width, EU43 in sports shoes and boots, and usually go up a half-size to 10s in flip-flops and sandals. *But* with my leather Birks I like 42 regular width, and so got these in the same size. They fit just as well and almost exactly the same as the leather ones; if anything they're a bit less floppy, as I suspect the leather softens and stretches a bit. I can't comment about durability -- I've just had 'em a week or two -- but they're *really* light and super handy for the garden and yard, as well as trips to the store. Sure, they feel a little bit more clammy than leather -- but much less on the sole side than many rubber and plastic sandals, and barely at all on the strap side. So I'm a happy camper.

These are super comfortable. But size down. I am a 7, sometimes 7.5 and the 38N was huge on me. The 37N fit perfectly. Also, I do not have a narrow foot, so if you have an average or even slightly wide foot the narrow should work.

I am a true size 8 and they fit fine. Very comfortable and no noise issue.

These are the best! so comfortable, I ordered the same size as I did in my normal Arizona's. perfect for the pool, beach, lake, river, and more!

These shoes are so freaking comfy, I'm impressed! I usually wear a size 8 so I went ahead and ordered a true size 8 version of these shoes. There is a tiny bit of extra room up at the toes, but honestly it doesn't bother me and I don't think it looks weird either. The straps make it really easy to adjust the shoes to your feet and they are so comfy even upon the first wear.

LOVE these. I'm a 7.5-8 and I got a 38 Narrow (also what they call Women's). I dont normally wear a narrow shoe, think of my feet as pretty average width, but the narrow works really well for me.

The fit was perfect, I absolutely love shopping here . I already have like 5 pairs

I am so happy with these! I originally ordered in the purple color and they’re so cute, but they don’t quite go with much in my wardrobe, so I went with white instead. I’m so happy Birkenstock is making more in the narrow size—I do not have a narrow foot and am typically a size 6 in all shoes, but the 36 narrow in Birkenstock fits me great! I tried a few times over the years with a regular width in 36 but they were always too long resulting in uncomfortable shoes that I’d always end up selling...the toe ridge always hit in a funky place and the heel cup never cupped my heel. So long story short, I don’t really understand why the narrow 36 fits better but it really does and FINALLY I am able to enjoy the comfort of birkenstocks everyone raves about. These EVA sandals are perhaps even more comfortable than my Floridas with a soft sole, maybe because they’re lighter. I love the white, it goes with everything and makes me look tan, a huge bonus. Anyway, if you’re on the fence about these go for it! You won’t regret it.

The Birkenstock Arizona Essential in White is my favorite go-to sandal. I where them 9 months straight and would where them everyday of the year if I could. They’re the most comfortable shoe for my foot and more comfortable and practical than any other Birkenstock model. I clean them with a disinfectant wipe and they look like new. I just wish there were more elegant neutral colors to choose from like a neutral beige or tan.

Great sandals! So comfortable. So easy to clean. Already have two pairs and will get more as more colors become available.

Purchased for my husband and he loves them. Helped kick his croc habit.

Fit was perfect! Very comfortable material and the color was awesome!

Super comfortable, they do run a half size too big.

Not as cushy Eva material as I was expecting.(cheap flip flops are softer) however, I bought them for the pool / shower and the toe grips are perfect for preventing a wipe out on wet surfaces.

I own the Birkenstock Arizona new buck leather sandals. I love those and I wanted to find a waterproof option. These EVA Birkenstocks are fantastic. True to size, extremely comfortable and best of all water resistant. I’m so happy and my feet feel great. Don’t hesitate you will love them. They do run true to size as they say.

I bought these to wear on vacation at the pool. Last year I bought the rubber Gizeh’s and I’m really happy with them, but was envious of the red Arizona’s I saw on someone else! Now I have both! I have the comfort of Birkenstock’s without having to worry about ruining the cork or leather. I will also wear these at home for gardening since they can get muddy. Had to buy narrow when my foot is not generally narrow. They fit fine.

Love, love, love these shoes! I purchased two pair because I couldn’t decide on a color and planned to send one back. Not happening!

This my ~6 pair. Super comfortable. Great all around sandal.

Great shoes for quick outdoor tasks, e.g., watering flowers, walking the dog, etc. durable and versatile too. Love them!

Very comfortable, light weight, good arch support and soft footbed. I live in these during the summer! I wish I would have sized down though. I’m a 7-7.5 and ordered a 38, but could have gone down a size for sure.
