Birkenstocks

[ethandron]

Ive just bought a pair of black patent toe post Birkenstocks, never really taken much interest in them before but they're currently selling them in Costco and I've been looking for a pair of black patent flip flops for a while now.
Have to say I'm well impressed with them, really comfy and feel secure on my feet, might have to go back for another pair in a different colour...
Anyone love/hate Birkenstocks? Do they really lasts long as they say??

I have a love/hate relationship with my Birki's, they look God awful but they're sooo comfy. I need a new pair as mine are nearly through the soles.

I love them I have a pair that must be 13 years old but they are pretty knackered now. I usually get at least ten years out of a pair.

Get yourselves down to Costco then Rocky and Eccles, grab a new pair ;)

I think I might Eth, just need to get my mate to take me as she has a card, I gave mine up years ago.

I got the OH some from TK Maxx last year. Brown leather sandals and he loves them....

No need Eth, I bought a new pair at CostCo a couple of years ago :-)

The knackered ones are just worn around the house as slippers.
