Pros
Cons
Fit notes
Sizing guidance for Birkenstock points to sizing down — a women's US 7 often lands in EU 37. Reports on shearling models say the narrow width fits like a women's medium, so go down one EU size. Match foot length to the lower bound of the chart; a 24.2 cm foot suggests EU 39.
Buy if
You want a yellow suede two-strap slide with adjustable metal buckles and a shearling-covered footbed, and you are willing to pick a size from a foot measurement rather than your usual shoe size.
Skip if
You want a lining that stays plush long term, or you dislike wool against bare feet. Buyer reports on shearling Birkenstock models describe matting at the toe and heel contact points.

Buying FAQ
Birkenstock guidance points to sizing down, and reports on shearling-lined models advise dropping one EU size, with the narrow width fitting like a women's medium. Compare your foot length to the size chart rather than your usual shoe size.
No buyer reports for this exact listing are available. The sizing and lining notes here come from general Birkenstock and shearling-model buyer discussion, not from testing of this item.
Buyer reports on shearling-lined Birkenstock models describe the wool matting down where toes and heels rub, exposing the cork footbed, and say it is most obvious when worn barefoot.
Buyers advise about 2–3 hours of wear on the first day and building up gradually, since the arch can feel sore until the footbed moulds to the foot.
A yellow suede slide with twin metal buckles, a shearling footbed and lining, a cushioned cork-rubber midsole and an EVA outsole, in sizes 35–45, style code 652803.
Evidence
On shearling-lined Birkenstock models the wool lining mats down with wear, exposing bare cork footbed in the spots where toes and heels rub most; this is especially noticeable when worn barefoot without socks.
SourceBuyers are advised to break cork-footbed Birkenstock styles in gradually — only about 2–3 hours on the first day — because the arch may feel sore at first while the footbed moulds to the foot, and prolonged standing/walking early on is discouraged.
SourceShearling-lined Birkenstock slippers are divisive among owners: there is dedicated buyer discussion (e.g., an r/Birkenstocks thread asking whether others dislike the Zermatt shearling slippers) suggesting some wearers are unhappy with the lined models despite daily use.
SourceBirkenstock sandals generally run large: buyers who normally wear a US 7 (women's) commonly end up in EU 37, roughly a US 6–6.5, so sizing down from the usual shoe size is the common advice.
SourceFor shearling-lined Birkenstock models, buyers report that the narrow width fits like a women's medium, so it is often advisable to size down one EU size when converting from women's sizing (e.g., EU 37 for a ~US 6.5 foot).
SourceBirkenstock footbeds are designed with roughly 0.5–1 cm of space at the front and back; oversizing by more than about 1 cm shifts the arch support point and causes foot soreness, so buyers should match foot length to the lower bound of the size chart (e.g., 24.2 cm foot length → EU 39).
