Should I buy Birkenstock sandals for my mom as a birthday gift?

Hello. I want to buy Birkenstock Gizeh sandals for my mom as a birthday gift. My mom actually loves flip flops but she doesn't own any Birkenstock sandals so I thought Gizeh sandals would be a nice gift for her. How comfortable are Gizeh sandals compared to Havaiana flip flops? And I don't know my mom's shoe size. I think I can look at her flip flops' size. Should I buy her the same size as her flip flops? Thanks.

the best thing would be is to her take with you (if buying from a store), this would reduce the chance of it being the wrong size and/ or uncomfortable and then having to think about returning. nothing worse than buying a gift and it being unsuitable
