I've been wearing birkenstock milanos for about 20 years. I have a lot of sensory issues that make finding the right shoe a big challenge, so when i find something that works, i tend to latch on, and birks REALLY work for me. I've always felt that the standard milano that i wear was serviceable and comfortable--by far the most important characteristics in a shoe--the visual has always seemed...well, clunky. I'm fine with with clunky if it's comfortable, but if they could look a little more attractive...Reader, these maintain the standard birkenstock comfort, my biggest worry, and might even be MORE comfortable than your regular milano style. The foot bed is a regular width birk foot bed, not a narrow, so whatever you usually wear in birks will be fine in these. I'm not getting any rubs or uncomfortable binding spots, and if anything, i think i find it even easier than usual to get my foot into that sweet spot in the foot bed. And yes, i think they're more delicate looking than your standard birk, if a little slower to put on because the ankle strap does need to be buckled every time.For newcomers to the world of birkenstocks, i should mention that birks, far more than most sandals, will only get more comfortable the more you wear them. The cork foot bed is designed to compress and mold to your foot over time, so they feel less like wearing shoes and more like standing barefoot in sand. I believe some studies may have even indicated that they're especially good at correcting for some foot issues. If the foot bed doesn't feel right at first, give them a few weeks of wear around the house to break in; it won't be long before they start leaping out of the closet and onto your feet.

I already own a pair of Birkenstock Arizona's that I have had since the mid 90s. They are like a comfortable pair of old slippers. I have had the soles replaced once and, three years ago, had the footbed replaced. They continue to be very comfortable sandals. That is why I purchased the pair of Arizona's I am reviewing here. First, they were a steal for the purchase price, less than $64. Second, they fit very well right out of the box. Third, they are made of the Birkenflor, simulated leather, and it really does feel like soft suede leather while also being more eco-friendly than a leather sandal. Finally, if you break them in properly, Birkenstock sandals last virtually a lifetime. Pay attention to the wear on the sole and that is all you'll ever have to replace. The Arizona's are comfortable, fit well, look great, and synch up with whatever you want to wear with them, trousers, slacks, dressier pants, jeans, or cargo shorts. No matter. I happen to reside in Arizona and so sandals are standard footwear more of the year here than elsewhere. My Birks get plenty of use and have stood the test. Great sandal! Great price!

One of my two favorite Birkenstock styles, in the most beautiful red leather. I will be wearing them a LOT. As in my other Birkenstocks, I go down a size, and they fit and feel great.

I like the tote bag it’s big. And you can store a lot in the bag. The only problem is the smell inside the bag it’s very strong !!

These are awesome which is why I have three pairs…black, olive green and buff/beige. I wear size 6 and my feet are a tad wide. These loafers are very comfortable and look great with slacks or jeans. I have a hard time wearing heels any more so these work well on the rare occasion I have to actually go to the office since we are required to dress in business casual attire. I usually wear them without any kind of socks but I have room to wear thin trouser socks but definitely nothing thicker. They’ve never given me blisters or caused any foot pain. I definitely recommend them without hesitation!

Loves the color and the show all together. But the fit is funny. Tried with insoles, heel pads nothing worked to keep the shoe from slipping on the heel. Really wanted to make it work. But had to return. Will try one of the flat loafer ones. Hope they work. Really wanted these. Man!

This is my second pair same style …. Love them

I love Kipling bags and it is the only name brand bag I buy. So I'm familiar with the quality of these.I received the XL backpack that seems authentic, but it isn't like in the photo. I've attached photos of my bag.The first big thing I noticed: there's no zippered laptop compartment in the back as shown. There is a small zipper on the top with a super-tiny pocket (think wallet, phone, passport or plane tickets... maybe not all depending on your phone and wallet size). There is an open pocket inside with some padding, however. But not easy access to the laptop, so I don't know how this is advertised as a laptop bag. Maybe it was a redesign because there's complaints about the zipper breaking? I can see that this will be stronger in the long run not having a zipper near the back straps.There is an additional unpadded pocket in the main compartment as well that isn't shown in the advertisement photos at all. Mine is beige where the photos show blue and no extra layers.The other difference is the pen/accessory pocket sewn in the front large compartment is also different than shown on my bag... Mine has one big pocket toward the back of the bag and a place for pens. No padded pocket up there nor a pocket on the front flap.Finally, the bottom corners are without lining like I expect from Kipling bags - so it is not reinforced precisely where backpacks usually get holes. There is lining on the bottom, but it doesn't extend all the ways to the corners. It seems odd and may shorten the life of the bag. It also diminishes protection of contents if anything hits the bottom corners. This is designed for clothes in the main compartment, not school books or binders with pointy corners.I'm not sure if I got a fake bag. The barcode had black lines through it, but the bag seems unused otherwise. The rubber monkey keychain is the same as with other bags.I'll give it a try as the size and weight are what I need (it should be perfect as a Spirit or Frontier personal item), but I will report back if the laptop is hard to access in transit. I am not using it to carry binders or school books so the corner weakness may or may not be an issue.I'll try to report back. This will either be a redesign for the better (for travel and non-school use), or will be a pain through TSA and trying to work on the plane.

Extremely spacious even with your laptop. Very stylish.

My daughter use it everyday to go to school. It has a laptop compartment.She is happy with her new backpack.
