Birkenstock Rio Sandals Girls White/Patent Sandals Shoes

I was looking for this particular style and colour and could only find these in stock in my size on Amazon. As others have stated the leather is a little hard at first. I think this is due to the fact that the leather is thick and of such good quality. For the moment I am following advice on the Birkenstock website, and wearing them every day to break them in. I find after a couple of days the leather is much more supple andcomfortable. I have worn Birkenstocks for many years in the Madrid and Sydney styles. This is my first pair of Arizona's. Overall I am very pleased with this purchase. I hope they will last for a many years as my other styles.

I have been a long time wearer of Birkenstocks and tend to buy a new pair every one or two years, I've travelled far with them across lots of continents and they've seen me through some pretty prolific walks! If you're new to Birks then don't fear when you first put them on. They often feel a bit uncomfortable and unnatural, just wear them in over a week or two. I tend to start wearing them on small walks and then gradually increase it. Soon enough they'll start moulding to your feet and they will feel so natural! You might need to tighten the buckle after a while as your foot sinks into the sole. A few words of advice with Birkenstocks - try not to get them too wet, they can get a bit smelly and not really made for crossing rivers (or big puddles if you live in England!) A little water won't hurt them though - these are prone to smelling after a long while, I tend to alternate shoes, they like to have a good bake in the sun, otherwise other ways you can make them smell less is putting them in a bag in the freezer, tea tree oil or baking soda. Don't let this put you off though, they are made from natural materials! - Don't get fooled into buying the cheaper versions in TK Maxx, they're often more plastic and not the same quality as these - I'm a size 6 normally but always get a size 5 in Birkenstocks. They advise going bigger but i prefer them to fit snugly

I ordered these in a 7 (my usual size) but had to return and re-order in a 6. Much better fit. Love the colour and the style.

Birkenstock have different sizing I’ve had a pair for years so I knew even though I’m a UK 6.5 I’m a Birkenstock 5.5. The Mayari design is great for concealing/supporting a bunion! I’ve given only 4 stars as they sent the wrong type of silver I ordered the snake skin effect silver? as it happens the standard Silver 07081 isn’t that bad but it’s not what I wanted and it’s a lot of money for something you don’t want! I could have returned it but for all the hassle I’ve decided to keep them. Just be careful if you’re ordering silver?! I notice they’ve put the code next to the Matt silver now! However, If you love Birkenstock you won’t be disappointed!

Firstly, I'd like to point out that I've never considered wearing this type of footwear, in fact I've never been inclined to buy anything like this. My problem is a diagnosis of achilles bursitis which means that anything rubbing on the back of my heal makes the condition worse. Shoes, trainers etc. all do this and the specialist I saw recommended (amongst other measures) backless mules to allow the condition to heal. After looking at all the options /reviews and discussing it with others, I plumbed for the Birkenstock and they also have a great reputation. When I unpacked them my young daughter said "they're weird and they look like gardening shoes". She has a point I guess and when I first slipped them on, the moulded foot bed felt very unusual. It was surprising how quickly my feet felt at home in them though and I've hardly taken them off since. They are amazingly comfortable and the build quality is excellent. Now I'm converted and more than happy to impose the sight of my 'weird gardening shoes' on society at large.

Super comfortable style with no 'toe rub' where the straps pass around your big toe. No wonder we saw so many people wearing this style in the US this summer! The second strap, higher across your foot, means these are very supportive too which works well for me with an achilles issue. This is my third pair of Birks - I buy one pair a decade whether I need them or not (and my first pair are still going strong at 21 years old!). Love 'em xx PS - I am really a 6.5, but have one pair of 7s and they feel a bit too boat like, and one 6 (as these are), and this pair feels spot on. So I would say Birks come up 'generously' rather than 'moderately large'...

I've been struggling with a lovely combination of a job that means I'm on my feet all day, a British heat wave (i.e. suddenly unbearably hot and sticky) and the finest pregnancy cankles you'll see this side of Hull. I normally wear Clarks Unstructured range for work as they are so comfy but needed some sandals and the Clarks ones are all too narrow for me at the moment so I thought I'd check out Amazon (to make the most of Prime membership mostly) and lo I found the wonder that is Birkenstock! I bought a pair many years ago and loved them and for the life of me can't think why I didn't replace them when they finally got too worn out to wear any more. I love these sandals, as in 'big smushy kiss the person that made them' love them. They are so comfortable and look good (I have the Basalt colour which goes with anything) plus I have worn them every day for the last week and no rubbing or blisters while breaking them as is normal with any new shoes. I'll definitely be buying more!

My mother has been using these sandals for approximately a month now. They fit perfectly, however the dye disintegrates and literally colors her feet dark brown. I've noticed this is a growing phenomenon among sandals recently as I assume they are made in cheaper warehouses. Birkenstocks that have been bought recently create the same outcome. She's quite upset at this occurrence but even if we got a refund or a new pair she would probably run into the same predicament. What I don't understand is how are you supposed to wear sandals in hot weather without getting them wet. I mean, they're supposed to be for hot weather conditions right? Hence I have updated my review to 3 stars for this pair of sandals. Please look at the photo to see what I mean. Notice that the light brown dye has come off completely and you can see actual footprints from where the dye has come off.

ein sehr schöner Sommerschuh, die Farbe ist gut und auch die Verarbeitung. Leider konnte ich nicht erkennen, dass dieser Schuh die weite Passform hatte. Insofern passte er mir leider gar nicht. Ich habe versucht Kontakt zum Verkäufer aufzunehmen um vielleicht einen UMtausch zu vereinbaren, habe aber leider keine Reaktion bekommen

Prezzo ottimo e soprattutto colore meraviglioso! La qualità...è la solita.

Al principio un poco duras por el cuero hasta que al final las haces al pie. Muy cómodas y genuinas, como las primeras que tuve hace las tostada de años. Producto auténtico y merece la pena pagar lo que cuestan.

OMG amazon u have did it again,these r the only shoes I wear.and they r the best.and a very good price from u amazon and again thx fore making my feet so HAPPY.until next order my amazon friends

I have been wearing Arizona style Birkenstocks for 13 years. They are comfortable, provide plenty of support for my high arches, and are overall great. I assume as long as they keep making them, I'll keep buying them. I wear them daily and I wear out a pair about every year. They are completely worth it. Go beyond the stereotypes, seriously, these are awesome sandals.
