Hi guys, does anyone have the Florida?

Its the ones with the three skinny straps. I saw a girl on the street wearing them in a metallic silver and gosh it looked AMAZING.

However it seems they are just available in the Narrow width? Whats up with that? Birkenstock confuse me with their crazy sizing.

Also want to hold out for the soft footbed, as all my past Birkenstocks were a bit harsh on my poor baby feet. But again, it seems only certain colours come with the soft footbed! :pout:

So now I'm thoroughly confused! I guess I could get the black or taupe - both look chic. Just not silver chic, lol!

By the way, I had to give up on my Gizahs back in the day. That damn toepole is hard as steel. I slipped off curbs the wrong way too many times and would get a bruise on the side of my big toe!

I also had a pair of Arizonas which were great, but I really bashed those in the desert up one memorable summer at Burning Man and now can't really see them as very trendy anymore. :p

Well my search for the right size Birkenstocks has a happy ending. I always thought if I couldn't find it online I wouldn't be able to find it anywhere, but I found my narrow 37 Athens in a department store on Sunday. Wore them out today, they look great, although I must say it's a bad idea to be walking a lot in them before they're broken in much. ^^;

My Athens with a kitty photo bomb. :3

Also my narrow 38 Gizehs came in the mail today after I exchanged the 37s. These fit much better.

Trying to figure out whether to wear them tightly strapped up or loose and flip-floppy. ^^

Love the Beige Arizonas (with the soft footbed--they may be my next purchase)
Got the black Gizeh's and also got the dark brown oiled Kairo braided. Love them both!
Zara has a cute pair looking like the Isabel Marant Edris sandal, I ordered these too.

My taupe suede Arizonas have arrived! I love the color & they're super soft BUT the straps feel a little loose, despite having them as tight as they'll go. I know they'd be perfect if I had one more hole to tighten them up to.

I'm a true Regular width because my feet fit perfectly on the footbed, so trying out a narrow wouldn't work. I'm contemplating punching new holes.... has anyone done this?

Also, for those with Arizonas, how do they fit for you? Are they supposed to be a little loose or should your foot feel strapped in pretty well?

I have had the same issue and mine are over a year old...thinking I need to add a hole in the strap, but my feet slide all over the place. Wonder if a narrow would be better?

Oh girl, I punch holes in all my stuff. I even punched holes in my unicorn Montereys. As for fit, it depends on how you like them! They'll stretch out a little and soften up.
