Birkenstock Men's EVA Arizona Sandal

I've owned 5-6 pairs of Birkenstocks over the years. I can't believe it took me so long to give these EVA versions a try. This pair is identical in size, fit, form to the Birkenstock Arizona which I have always owned and loved. They have the same positive effect and comfort on your feet. The differences with the regular traditional Birkenstock: * These are much lighter - feels like nothing on your feet. * These are vastly easier to clean. Just hose them off outside and scrub with brush/soap once in a while and they will stay clean as new. Traditional Birkenstocks get grass clippings and dirt in them when you walk across the lawn and plenty of dirt grit that work into them. These EVAs can be put in the dishwasher ONLY if you have a cold water cycle, but then that doesn't scrub the bottom, so not sure you should use dishwasher on these. * No maintenance if you keep them over a year. Regular birks require leather treatment, that crazy cork sealant, etc. * Much cheaper. about 1/4 the cost, so if you have a problem, just get another pair. Only negative is that they don't have a version with back strap that mirrors the traditional Birkenstock "Milano." However, I have found for me that these stay on my feet a little bit better than the traditional Arizona, probably because they are lighter. So you don't get that flip flop type of looseness that causes you to trip when you trot up a few stairs or run a few steps. Like the original Birkenstock Arizona, these are the ultimate ease in step into and slip on, so ideal around pool or resort and with the light EVA, these are far more handy at putting in travel luggage and taking on trip. (However, like regular Birks, these are often prohibited in hotel and resort gyms.)

I am very happy with these plastic Birkenstock’s. The “unisex” model is wider than women’s widths. That us why I purchased them. They are super comfortable and provide great arch support. Also has a nice heel cup which also gives support. These are great for summer because they can get wet and dirty and you can easily wash them. Wire my first pair this entire past summer and they still look like new. This is my second pair. I highly recommend this unisex model if u need more width.

I am a cool guy. Seriously. You want creds? I have backpacked in the Amazon jungle, crossed the Great Karoo on the Blue Train, paddled and portaged following Voyageur directional petroglyphs through the Quetico wilderness, and sipped Singapore Slings under belt-driven ceiling fans in Raffles' Long Bar. And that's just the beginning, amigo. I am the kind of guy who doesn't necessarily believe Portland OR is the storied Gehenna, but I'll bet you can see it from there. I would not have been caught dead wearing Birkenstock sandals. And I've worn 'em all. Indian sandals with a toe strap and stinking of patchouli in the summer of '67, recycled tire sandals, flip-flops, gonzo sport sandals... I've even cut my own Jesus Weejuns with a razor blade and left the penny in the slot. Birkenstock EVAs are the best sandals I've ever worn. First, they are made from a tough material that, trust me, does not occur naturally anywhere in the Cosmos. They are not your Fair Trade, organic, artisanal, free range hemp sandals. These babies are pure engineering. And they fit true to size. They're comfortable on a wide foot... I'm an E width. And the arch support is perfect for flat feet; I should know, because my feet are so flat I've been stalked by duck hunters after leaving barefoot tracks on soft ground. So, if you're cool, you need not avoid these Birkenstocks like the Bubonic Plague lest you be marked for life as an untergeek or Pajama Boy. You can buy these sandals and wear them in comfort, and with pride.

These are my favorite Birkenstocks. They’re extremely comfortable and I wear them everywhere lasting as well.

These fit like the leather Birks but are softer. They were a boon post-foot surgery because I could get them on--my other shoes didn't fit. I love being able to slip them on without bending down. They are also good garden shoes because they don't mind being wet. Next time I buy I will order a longer size.

I'm a 7.5 in regular sandals, and the 36 EU fits best on me (5.5-6.5 US). These are real Birkenstock sandals. I looked up the company, BirkiMe, their name in Germany is DANAWU GMBH (look them up), they are a company that helps with some of the load that Birkenstock/other manufacturers has when they overproduce certain products. You can read about them here. For those saying they're counterfeit, amazon has done extensive research on tracking down companies who do this. This company is legit from Germany, you can read about them here and why they are cheaper than the manufacturer. Nonetheless, great shoe for a great price. Soft and comfortable. Feet stay dry and clean all day. Love them.

My wife got a pair of these for me and another pair for herself. Initially I was very willing to wear them because of the design - not the prettiest pair of sandals in my eyes. But after trying them a couple of times, I started to like them. They are just so light, yet wraps around my feet so well, I feel like I'm walking on clouds. It's not something I would wear in the public but they are now my first choice to wear around the house.

The item was pictured as a leather one strap Birkenstock at the time I purchased. What came was a blue plastic two strap sandal. Nothing like what the picture looked like. (After further research what is pictured is the Madrid style not the Arizona Essentials which was sent). I should have taken the time to read the details of the item. What arrived is not what I know of as Birkenstocks and do not recommend this item for anyone who is looking for a traditional leather Birk. You are likely to be disappointed. As far as fit goes - these are very wide for a woman’s foot. They are a unisex shoe so if your foot is not as a wide as a mans foot I would order their narrow size.

Numero perfetto comode e davvero belle con un giusto abbinamento la cinghia più grande le rende perfette anche per uscire

Ammetto che le ho comprate con i saldi e nonostante questo mi siano costate un bel pò, ma ci ho camminato per tutta l'estate e posso dire senza dubbio alcuno che sono tra le scarpe più comode che abbia avuto nella mia vita. Meritano ogni centesimo del loro prezzo e sto valutando di acquistarne almeno un altro paio di colore diverso

Fully made from plastic. No leather involved

The color is lovely. The make is great as always. However I received a NARROW fit and not the regular size. It’s the same with my sister, she ordered a regular size but received a narrow fit as well.

Se inizialmente la scarpa vi sembra un pelino aderente e precisa, aspettate perché le birkenstock vanno sempre ad allargarsi dopo 2/3 calzate. Le prendo sempre un numero in meno e sono perfette. Queste in suede super morbide e consigliate.
