I've many, many pairs of Birks and my feet thank me. I wear them everywhere. I wear them for comfort, out of necessity because of arthritis, and because they are the safest shoes made to aid in balance and support. For me, they've been a lifesaver. These are no different. Everything about them is as I expected. They're great.Great sandals. I have many other pairs of BIrkenstocks, and these do not disappoint. My only complaint is that these do not come in "standard" width, only narrow. That said, I have fairly wide feet but I can wear these comfortably. Also, I thought they would be more reddish, but they are definitely a salmon pink.I LOVE this pair. So cute. Resembles snake skin. Has a glow finish to the color. Pattern on the leather is gorgeous. Comfy shoe right out of the box. I've worn Burks for decades and this pair doesn't disappoint. The fit is perfect. Remember to pick up cork sealant for your Burks.Sydney straps on narrow width are loose in comparison to Salina, I had to add another hole to tighten the straps.well, the gold IS a little garish, but they are so comfortable and will look great with the outfit I'm wearing to a wedding in a couple weeks so.. I'm good.. or should I say golden? hahah Seriously, I am a major birk fan and these are great.okayI love Birkenstock shoes because of the comfort and have worn them since the 80's. This pair had to be returned because they sent me the wrong size. I have several other Sidney style and I love them. I wear them all day and every day of the spring, summer, and fall. When the snow flies then I have to wear something different. I also wear the Arizona, Florida, and Orlando. I own probably 16 pair and they are all 36 M (called regular width) and they sent me 36 N (narrow).They loo beautiful though. I will just give it to my niece. I'm sure she will love it.
