BirkenstockMadrid Mules/Clogs Women Silver Mules Shoes

Birkenstock at their best ! Bought reluctantly to replace an old pair bought years ago which after great service are looking a little tired. I didn't realise Birkenstock came in different width sizes - but these are the narrow ones which i would say are more of an average fit and would be comfortable for most. Good price so happy with purchase.

Like the style and brand. However the cost is high.

I had wanted these for ages, so when I saw them reduced I couldn't get them quickly enough. What a huge disappointment. I am a standard size 4, normal width never had a problem with shoe fitting before......but these were huge!! If I got the toe post where it is intended to be I had over an inch spare at the back & my toes were at the very edge of the front. The other disadvantage of this was that the shaping in the sole was not where it should be so I was walking on bumps - very strange & not at all comfortable. Buying a smaller size is not the answer as the toe posts and shaping of the inner sole would be in the wrong place. Given that these normally retail at around £50 I think they should at least fit. Thank goodness Amazon's returns system is so simple.

I have wanted a pair of these for years and have always ended up with cheaper alternatives until I found these on amazon. I read so many reviews on the sizing etc. and was pretty confused as I usually take a size 4 English 37continental but my foot is not really narrow but I suppose you could call it slender so do I order narrow or regular. I eventually followed previous reviews advise and ordered a size 36R fully expecting to have to return them for a larger size. They arrived several days earlier than estimated and fit perfectly, they took a couple of days to settle in and are so comfortable, they are definitely not the only pair I will be buying.

Among the best Birkenstock -- and they're all better than most shoes. For me it's the fit, the shape of the insole, and the look that stand out. Like no other shoe this one makes me stand up straight from the heel up, taking pressure of my slightly wonky hips & pelvis, scoliosis and stiff shoulders. Usually, "slim" and a size smaller than your usual size is perfect for normal feet. I find this design particularly "classy." Like a few other lines, the Madrid is cut to encourage your feet and lower legs to move & work more while just walking around, and this can take a bit getting used to (depending on what you're used to wear, this shoe can feel as if it slipped away from you as you walk for the first few days).

These are the second pair of Birkenstocks I've owned in 6 years. The first ones are still going but wanted a different colour. These seem like good value compared to the high street. Very comfortable sandals, I've trecked in them in the past and use them to walk 40 mins into work with no discomfort and good support.

Birks used to be made from stronger and better quality materials, chunkier soles, softer leather. It seems to me all the old dependable products are losing some of their edge, through cutting down on manufacturing costs. This sandal caused an abrasion on my foot, the leather is just a little too harsh, but I think a lot of walking will wear it in.Having said that, there is the usual quality of moulding, and design, and the feeling of luxury and pleasure walking in this sandals is unique, they still look class, and they fit well, just that the lesser quality leather needs softening through wear

Perfect shoes as described. Agreed that if you have standard or narrow feet than go down a size. For wider feet you may need to even go up a size. I have very narrow feet, normally a 5.5. Ordered 4.5 and they're perfect.If you've never worn these before, persevere. They will feel very weird, but your feet will become accustomed and they will be like walking on air.Would definitely order again.
