Birkenstocks are my absolutely favorite shoes ever! I always get the traditional ones but this time wanted to try these. They are so comfortable and look great on my feet. I wear them all the time!!

Most uncomfortable sandals ever

I bought these a few weeks before my trip to Vegas. After reading how Birkenstocks are so comfortable, I bought my first pair hoping they would make walking so much wouldn't be so painful. I started breakout them in as soon as I got them. The part that's in between your toes is a hard plastic piece that never softened up. I put moleskin on the plastic part hoping that would help. It didn't. It got to the point where just putting my feet in them hurt so bad. Needless to say, I wasn't able to use them for my trip and had to buy a new pair of sandals the day before I left for Vegas. Now I question whether I buy a different pair of sandals from them because this was such a painful experience.
Love these sandals and they come in a wide width. I've ordered 3 pairs now, including calling a customer service person twice as I kept ordering a Wide (D) and they kept shipping narrow to medium fit. If you have a wide foot, just skip this even though the site says it's available. It's not!
