Why does the name and sizing wear off so fast. My kids have several pair of these and no clue which go with which because the size is gone within a week.I have been a fan of Birks for 25+ years. When I discovered these that are just as comfortable for a much lower price, I was so excited! They are perfect for wearing at the beach. ☺️She loved this gift and I knew she would ~Birkenstocks deliver 100%Very comfy. My go to summer shoeFits slightly larger than regular Birkenstocks. Much more supportive than other plastic sandals. When wet, feet can slip around a bit inside the shoe, so buckle firmlySo glad I got these, as I have two other leather pairs I frequent in the summer. These allow me to wear them to the beach, as sand falls off them easily. Water dries quickly as well, and they are still stylish enough to wear with street clothes.My only note, like jellies, if your feet are wet or sweaty, they can slide in these sandals while walking.When I first opened the box my heart dropped and I thought: oh, you've been ripped off... Couldn't believe I paid 50 bugs for this lightweight plastic shoe. But - Wow! - wearing them is awesome!They are light on the feet (which is great!!!) and can get wet, are washable, and come in great colors! I got 3 more pairs!!! They are super-comfortable and they are the real Birkenstock deal (footbed is their great shape and very comfortable for human feet!) I am so excited about them now.They are vegan (no leather) and make me happy to wear. My feet and legs agree!I don't know about durability since I have only had them a month. Been wearing them every day and so far they still look like new. The Birkenstock name inside has rubbed off on one side but that does not bother me. It is a plastic shoe and being washable, I'll take the rubbed off print over a leather surface any day.So glad Birkenstock decided to add these to their line of leather shoes. I love mine!Don't get me wrong. I own 4 different pair of Birkenstocks and I thought these would be a good fit to quickly slip on in a rain storm and walk my dogs without trashing my "good" pairs. Where do I start? First I ordered a 36 which translates into a USA size of 6, when I finally waited the 4-7 weeks it took to reach me - the size was a 37 (size USA 7). I am a true USA 5.5 (I know super small feet - ugh) a USA size 6 gives me just enough play so I'm not cramped nor do I look like I'm walking in large clown shoes. Secondly, they were light as a feather, almost lighter than a single flip flop and had just about the same quality as a five/dime flip flop, visible glue everywhere. I tried to adjust the straps (i was in a calm and unhurried demeanor) there were no holes to adjust the straps. I know, if the size was wrong then why try the adjusting the straps - look, I can justify just about anything I want to myself and honestly waiting the 4-7 weeks had me jonezing for a shoe that i could make work somehow. I do this to myself all the time. The sole of the left shoe was already peeling back and that's when I had to say to myself..."Nope, you're not gonna pay full price for an item that is sub par, not your size and is already coming apart". Luckily the return was free so within a period of less than 24 hours I returned them to our local Amazon return location. For weeks, parlaying into a month - my status on my return said that a refund would be given once the item was returned. What, I kept asking myself. I kept the receipt that I ALWAYS request when returning an item. The return receipts always stay pinned on my board until I see that the return was fulfilled. I called the help center and was promptly issued a refund and the returned subpar Birks were indeed in the custody of the Vendor. Look, I know that things in the world are crazy right now, but come on. These Birks were the cheapest in every form that is negative. I hate saying this because all my other purchases of Birkenstocks have been beyond satisfying. Maybe I just got the bad batch, idk....I would pass on these unless....you're a gambling person. I believe these are either I love them or I hate them type of deal. I'm sorry to report that I hated every aspect of these from start to ending.I did not receive the birks pictured in the items description tho I really don't mind and absolutely love the ones I got. The ones I got have a brown, leather sole and they're really nice, comfortable and good quality. Tho for someone else that might be an inconvenience.Very lightweight. Was concerned when the order said ‘narrow’ but I’ve come to the conclusion that that is the female sizing! Not narrow at all and extremely comfortable. Actually quite wide. I have always had super small but wide feet and these are perfect for me. I have the black and rose pink. Perfect for the beach in the summer and perfect for just slipping on to go out in the garden. If they get a bit grubby, they’re wipe clean and don’t smell. I will say that when your feet get a little hot and sweaty, they do make a little noise but that’s my only little niggle. I’ll be ordering other colours over the summer!!These sandals are very comfortable, great value, I have other styles in birkenstocks and didn’t expect these to have as good arch support but they do, I’ve wore them all day and haven’t had any pains (I have plantar fasciitis). They’re very easy cleaned aswellNot a soft footbed and not suede lining. Could not return via Hermes pick-up and will have to travel to town to find a post office. Not happy!I have flat feet and wear insoles, I have a few pairs of the cork Birkenstock’s and they provide great arch support. The EVA style are sturdier than I expected and there is arch support, I’m a uk size 7 so I ordered a 40, they were too small so I will order a 41.
