"This is my 2nd pair, LOVE these slides, they go with all my looks, are SO comfortable and bonus, they can handle Florida rain showers. I love my Birks but Message Is in higher rotation these days, love the minimalist vibe. . Thank goodness colors are limited or I’d own more. I do size down, normally a 41, I wear 49’s in Message."
"These shoes are great, but this particular pair was the wrong size, so I had to return. I had purchased a different pair in the smaller size that ended up being perfect. I am going to give these a 5 star review more for the other pair and for the easy customer service. I'd say the shoes run a little bit large. They are really comfortable and the customer service was excellent."
"I have not owned these or worn these enough yet to say much from experience, but from just putting them on they need no break in and are extremely comfortable. They are also built to last and feel as such."
"Love right out of the package. I haven't a low instep and narrow foot. These actually are the most comfortable slides ever. I have many, i mean many birkenstocks and these are my new favorites. Already ordered a second pair. Can't wait for them to arrive."
"As a devoted Birkenstock, where I have been pleasantly surprised with my purchase these slides. As a seven-year-old woman I feel like my Birkenstocks just aren’t feminine they’re functional, but not feminine. I feel like the slides are feminine and they can be washed and that has me sold."
"Very comfy strap, doesn’t feel like you have to break it in. Guessed right with my size. I ordered the same European size I wear in Birkenstocks and they fit perfectly. The cork is heavier and firmer than I thought it would be but excited to put some miles on these because they feel like they are going to hold up. They feel high quality. Worth the wait, just wish I got them at the beginning of summer and not the end."
"I was very excited to receive the sandal after a 6-week wait. Walking in the house was very comfortable; however, when I went for a walk outside, the slapping sound was so loud I couldn’t ignore it. It sounded like I was wearing flip-flops, only MUCH louder because the footbed is cork, not rubber. By then I couldn’t return the shoe. Perhaps the problem would not occur with the Shaw, which has a wider strap across the top, but I am not going to chance purchasing another sandal that I will be unable to return."
"The shoes are very comfortable. The problem is the elastic strap across the foot has enough give that the shoes make a loud thunk with every step. Every step the back pops back in to the heel and is loud. No matter how softly I try to walk. I do not wear them out of the house."
"100% LOVE this slide! I cannot wait to order more of these, they are so very comfortable!"
"I walk a lot at work, so I was really excited about the style of these shoes, but also that they were washable so I can keep them clean and wear them for seasons to come. My first pair didn't have the perfect fit, but the Message team was so responsive and helped me get the right pair, without any extra cost, which I greatly appreciated. I love my new slides, but the way the brand responded spoke volumes and really tipped my excitement in an even more positive direction."
