Detailed Review
The Birkenstock Florida Fresh Sandals shine when it comes to comfort. Designed with an anatomical cork footbed, these sandals provide excellent arch support, making them ideal for prolonged wear. Whether you're strolling along the beach or running errands around town, your feet will appreciate the cushioned support.
In terms of style, the Fresh Bf Graceful Gemm Blue color adds a contemporary twist to classic sandal designs, allowing you to pair them easily with a variety of outfits. From summer dresses to casual shorts, these sandals can elevate your look effortlessly.
However, as with any product, there is a minor learning curve. New users might find them a bit stiff initially, requiring a short break-in period to achieve that perfect fit. Additionally, the hand wash care requirement could be seen as a drawback for those used to machine washable footwear; however, this also contributes to the longevity of the leather material.

The fact that any Birkenstock in my size fits the same is such a game changer in shoe buying. I have plantar fascitis and any other shoe necessitates orthotics.I usually buy the Arizona 2 strap kind but I was happy to try something different, in this beautiful pink. Comfy as always. I Spent 2 days in Disneyland wearing them doing 18,000 steps a day. I love them.
Didn't have to try these on since I know my Birk size. Typically they were true to size. Nice leather & cork. Would buy these again!
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.
Always liked Birkenstock and these arrived in wonderful condition; brand new, never used as is in some cases but not this company. So don’t be afraid to buy from them. My purchase went smoothly
I bought the first Birkenstock sandals when my daughter was in high school about seven years ago, those same sandals are still up and running today; they are starting to look old and worn out but only because I’ve used them for washing the backyard lately.After recently figuring out that these sandals had lasted for this long I decided to give them a try and buy another pair. With that being said, they’re not the most comfortable, they are still cool looking, and trending!
I really love the style and color. They’re durable and well-made. The sizing threw me off. I ordered the wrong size based on the sizing chart they run big so I should’ve gotten a size down unfortunately or them before I figured that out, so can not return them..so I just have to wear them around the house now.
I wear a shoe size 7.5 wide and I wear a 37 narrow in this style shoe. The soft footbed is a must-have for me when buying Birkenstocks, the regular footbed is too hard.
Since these shipped from Germany, the package took 19 days to arrive at my door. In fact, I had momentarily forgotten about ordering them. So when I heard the knock at the door, it was a very nice surprise to see a Birks shoe box in the hands of my mail lady. But that moment of excitement was nothing compared to the joy of slipping my feet into these luscious shoes and wearing them for the next 6 hours. They are a perfect fit, and my feet are SO happy right now! I'm happy that I was able to find a pair that I loved in the right size for such a great price. They look exactly like the picture, so they're great with jeans (which I wear almost all the time.) They'll look nice with skirts, too.One thing to watch out for, though. When I selected these, the page said they had free shipping. They do NOT! There was some type of error, so just be aware.
