FITORYMens Sandals, Arch Support Slides with Adjustable Buckle Straps and Cork Footbed Size 7-14.5

Birkenstocks are like baseball gloves: they become comfortable overtime and they become like an old friend. Unfortunately, this leads people to neglect the fact that the cork bed becomes very compressed and the arch support and towbar go flat. Replacing them is really expensive… Until now!I can only surmise that Birkenstocks patent ran out, and that somebody is now knocking them off as exact replicas, because these are in distinguishable to my eye, and to my feet. I realize that no company wants to exist as a comparison to something else, but let’s be adults about it. Birkenstock has always been the brand to beat. But when you are perfect, all you can hope for is to tie them. This sandal is your tie. Why did I buy these? I took a flyer on the off chance that they might be a reasonable substitute and they turned out to be exactly the same. My feet realized that my old sandals had become hard, flat and a little bit uncomfortable. The first thing that my toes noticed was how soft the leather in the foot bed is. Then my heels started dancing because I had a cushy cork bed.. It is finally nice to have an affordable alternative that is equivalent.

My husband says the sandals fit great and are very comfortable. I will update later on how the sandals hold up with continued wear but they appear to be well made. The fit is true to size. He typically wears an 11 in tennis shoes and sketchers.

They are pretty decent sandals. They aren’t as comfortable as Birkenstocks and they don’t fit to the shape of your foot the same, but in terms of looks they are pretty much identical. My one complaint is that I ordered the black color and they aren’t as dark as I’d like. They are more of a gunmetal grey color

Very comfortable. I love them. The color is great. I think I’m getting the black ones next

Why did you pick this product vs others?:The sandals are one of the most comfortable my son loved them. He’s been asking me for another one gray fit.

Muy suaves la medida es correcta y muy buen material

Surprised by the high quality of the material. They are quite comfortable, especially after they've been broken in. The size was somewhat off, being too large. Too large to the point that they weren't comfortable to wear. Even with adjusting the straps to be at their tightest, they were still too large. So their adjustability has its limits. I had to punch an extra hole in each strap on both shoes and NOW they fit great -- which was annoying to deal with. After that, however, they are quite comfortable, stylish, and look like actual birkenstocks.

The footbed is perfect. It molds to your foot with no-nonsense support, birks plus heel cushion. But the faux leather/suede on top ain’t makin’ it. For a few dollars more get the all leather Fitory sandals.
