“Really love the arch support and how soft the leather feels — super comfortable from the first wear and easy to walk in for long periods. The shoes feel supportive without being stiff, and the overall fit is great.”
“Orthotic is comfortable and strap helps keep shoes in place without the usual worry of the orthotic making the back loose. But there is a liner in the toes which cuts in and I have to wear a toe protector to stop my toe from being skinned”

“I have this in black and cream and they are on a daily rotation. Ive worn them for long overseas trip and never complained once about pain. Perfect for all outfits”
“I initially purchase ld a size 39 but it was too big. I returned back the product via mail and was able to drop in store in person and pick up my correct size. The whole process was seamless ! I highly commend their customer service support.
The shoe itself is extremely comfortable especially being a busy clinician working long hours.”
“As some others have noted there are a few challenges some people have experienced with Surfbird. In my case, these include extreme discomfort and blisters all around, an inner sole that is not leather so isn’t breathable and makes feet sweat, and is fixed so cannot be taken out and another bared inner sole used instead. In addition, the leather leaves black die stains all over my feet even when wearing tights. The leather upper is very soft and thin and hasn’t got much structure so it doesn’t feel very supportive. I welcome the fact that the size is a bit roomier in length, but because there isn’t much structure to the leather outer it doesn’t look particularly flattering on a wider foot. I have nearly 20 pairs of Bared shoes and these are the most disappointing and least comfortable I have bought. I do not feel the surfbird is the usual Bared quality for the price point. In the same order I bought a pair of Whydah and they are so comfortable and much more enjoyable.”
