I really wanted this shoe as it is well made and would be comfortable except that each shoe claims to be L. but comparing shoes sole to sole one shoe is longer and narrower than the other. Both shoes were short for an 11 and my toe at very end. Either they were mixed up or this is poor quality control. Have to return. Will look for in shoe store where I can try on.

Mu husband liked this one in different color and wanted to get navy color one.
Oddly, same size but different color shoes size are different or the one we got was defective.
Left side shoe fitted fine but right one was so tight that he could not really put his feet in.....
Other color one was comfortable, has nice arch support.

Too short in the toe; too wide in the heel in my normal size. Since they don’t come any narrower, I will be returning them. They are super cute and don’t look at all like Birkenstocks, which in my estimation is a good thing (since I wear Birks all the time—I’d like people to think I can branch out!).

I ordered size 7.5 narrow. The heel was narrow enough, but toe box was huge. I loved the look of the shoe - it was exactly what I wanted, so I was sorry to return it.

I own several Birkis because they make my walking experience much better. I have completely flat feet and bunions, so excellent arch support and a wide toe box are essential. I ordered the Oswego in navy. The left foot fit just fine. The right foot was almost a full size larger. Thinking that this pair was a manufacturing fluke, I requested another pair -- same size (7.5 narrow). Well, the replacement pair arrived and had the same inconsistent sizing. I'm now convinced that this is a manufacturing flaw, so I'll be returning the second pair too. Really disappointing.

Love them! Fits just like the Bend but less heavy. It also fits like the other Birkenstocks. Looks cute with jeans or dress pants.

These seem a bit larger than my other Birkenstocks, all size 38 but I will make them work with a sock.

These shoes are so adorable! I loved the look of them. My only concern is that they will slip in the heel without a thin sock. I loved them enough to try them!

I had a similar pair of slip ons but these were a great price and I love Birkenstock support. I’ve been so so pleased with these shoes.

They are wonderful shows but if you have a slim heel they will not stay on you feet. Your foot will constantly slip out of the show when walking. I wish they fit as I love them.

Really firm foot bed which is great IMO. Quality construction and soles look like they should last a long time.

I LOVED THESE SHOES-HOWEVER- THEY WERE JUST TOO BIG. They came in an 8-8.5 and I really needed just an 8. I am so sad!!!

I have a lot of nerve damage in my right foot these shoes have not hurt me one time. They were very comfortable right out of the box. Lots of toe room. I will be ordering another pair of these in a different color.

Despite some negative reviews I went with my past experience and ordered these shoes. Boy am I glad I did!! I had just returned a pair of Sketchers which had horrible comfort. These shoes put theirs to shame. I have a narrow heel and only found my right one slips some but I can add some heel pads to these if I want. Arch and toe comfort are awesome.

Great shoes. Arch hit me in an odd spot, but that's probably just me.
Want to compliment Zappos for amazingly fast delivery and for a website that is so easy to use.

Super comfortable and fitted really well. I wear and 8.5 American, 39 European and the 39 fits perfectly. They are not adorable but not much to be done about that - for a comfortable shoe, they look pretty good. I like the canvas. I think it will be lighter and cooler than the leather.

Geez, I want a pair of Birkenstocks so badly but have yet to find a pair that fit. Oswego is a beautifully crafted shoe and looks great on. This style has the "soft" footbed version (which is still firm but so buttery nice), but even in narrow, the shoe flops. If I size down, my toe is touching the end. I just don't think Birkys are made for narrow feet. Sigh.
