This is one of my favorite styles of Birk sandals. It's comfortable and attractive. The color of this one is darker than the picture, more of a navy, and looks good with anything denim. The upper is made of their synthetic material. It's quite thick and the backing is very soft, so it does have a leather-like feel. The footbed has a suede liner. This model has the traditional Birk footbed with the prominent arch support. People with high arches will probably find this comfortable. People with low arches should probably look for the soft footbed models or the Birkis. The size I ordered is a size smaller and narrower than my American size, and it fits perfectly. If you've never worn Birks before, it would be a good idea to try some on in a local store before you order from an overseas seller.This is the second sandal I've ordered this summer from this particular seller, shoeworld24. They are excellent. When I had a question about my order they emailed a response within a few hours. Both this order and my previous one arrived before the earliest estimated arrival time and I live on the West Coast. If I decide to order any Birks next summer, I'll look for them.
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!
I had to size up
Could not keep them due to my high ar ch, the top hurt my foot
Just what I was looking for and a great price as well. I’ve had good luck with Bandolino shoes before and wanted an updated loafer look that would be comfortable. Wore these last week and they were just right.
