I got these for work and they are fantastic! I'm a chef & spend up to 15 hours a day on my feet and these shoes are very comfortable. I'm so glad I purchased them. They come with a slightly flimsy cork insole but I bought some good quality work shoe insoles and placed them right on top of the cork ones and they're great. They do run big I find as I am a size 9 women's & these definitely feel more like a 9 1/2 but with the added insert I bought they work out perfectly fine. They are also easy to keep clean as well which is important when working in a kitchen. I would purchase them again.
I bought these chefs after my sous chef told me that he has had his for 6 years. I was purchasing a new pair of cheaper shoes every year or so and decided to spend a little more now for the possibility of not having to spend as much over the long run.Holy moly! These shoes were a little uncomfortable at first, as I wasn't used to the backless shoe. Once I re-configured how I walked in them, they became so wonderful!The arch support is superb and the insoles are starting to become comfortable. They are slip-resistant but a little less than other pairs that I have worn. I still don't fall down, but I slip a tiny bit.I have already noticed a big reduction in knee, ankle, and back pain after wearing these shoes for only a short while.
As much as I like these shoes NOW (waterproof, easy to clean, reasonably comfortable, fit well, non-slip, not too clumsy), I am going to warn buyers that there IS an initial breaking-in phase and that phase IS HELLISH. Now, maybe wearing the shoes for a 10-hour shift the first day isn't the wisest idea, but by the end of the night of my first day wearing the Birkis, I felt completely crippled. My feet still hurt so badly the next morning that I chose to wear some $15 shoes from Walmart just to give my feet a break and make it through the weekend at the restaurant! THAT being said, apparently that one battle-zone day broke them in to the point that the following week when I tentatively wore them again, they fit my feet perfectly! The sole is a little harder than expected, but the cork inserts that come in the shoe have formed to my sole pretty well and I now have no problems and finish my shift at night with the minimal discomfort you'd expect from any shoe you'd been standing in for ten or eleven hour without a break. Would definitely recommend these with the caveat of either breaking them in more slowly, or just expecting that Day 1 Hell period. Haha.
Normally wear a womens size 10 so ordered a pair in this size. They were way to big so gave them away and ordered a size 9-91/2. They fit okay but still a little large and too wide. I wanted the Eva Sandals which I have wore for years but unfortunately they have discontinued them. I am very disappointed in these and will not be ordering more. The fit is very uncomfortable and awkward and to wide for myself. The Eva sandles in the past were great and I give them 5 stars plus but these only a 1star even though I don’t believe they should get that.
I have plantar, I work in the OR, so I am on my feet all day. My foot doctor told me I needed cork bottom shoes to wear. He also mentioned (spenco foot support) which i got from academy sports.When I tell you the first day is the worst because your feet have to adjust. The 2nd day I was fine! My feet do not hurt when I wear cork bottom shoes. I have slippers I wear that are cork bottoms.What also helps is soaking your feet in ice cold cold cold water after a long day. It helps.The shoes are good for plantar. I would recommend them.
I normally wear a 38 (which I ordered originally), but they seemed a bit too snug (I have wide feet and a high instep), so I returned them for the 39, which fit much better. They are super comfy. I normally wear orthotics, but haven't had to replace the insoles (the ones they come with) at all, even when wearing them all day. They are perfect for the fall/winter, as I am a swimmer (5 days a week) and go to the gym (three days a week) who takes her shoes on/off quite frequently, so they are a great addition to the wardrobe - hassle free baby!! LOL
I love birkenstock. I have very wide feet with a high arch so I rarely can find comfortable shoes. I live in birkenstock gizahs. In those I wear size 39. They provide great arch support and accommodate wide feet so my feet don't hurt. I am looking for something to wear for travel for work. I found these to try. The problem is the shoe sole is very thick so when the cork insole that is also very thick is inserted, the shoe is too small. I can fit my foot in the shoe without the insoles but what is the point without the cork and arch support? They need to make the shoe bigger so that it fits people in the normal size that they wear. Now I'm in quandary. The next size up is unavailable so I can only get two sizes up that I suspect is too big so I won't have comfortable shoes for my upcoming trip for work. :(
