    i have 3 pairs, rio, gizeh and mayari. i try to wear them whenever I can because it is comfortable for me. you should wear what you like and whats comfortable to you. Dont get swayed with what people think about them. If you like it and it works for you then wear them. Dont worry about the dirty footprint on the footbed, every birk wearer has them, its normal.

    I am a teacher. I have worn mine a lot off duty. I have even worn them teaching.
    Some people say ugly comments about Birkenstocks. I’ve been told they look cool. One or 2 two people said they are sexy. Whatever people may say; they are ME.
    If you can’t handle my Birkenstocks, you can’t handle me.

    I love them! I have several pair, a couple pair of Mayari, a pair of Giza, 3 pairs of Airizona ( and EVA) and one Boston. I walk on trails too and I expect sand to get in their because it really doesn’t matter what brand of Sandals that will happen. Change into sneakers for your trail walks and appreciate your timeless Birks!!

    The foot beds on my birks are exactly the same , they look soooo gross with my footprints on them and they stink soo bad of vinegar. I told my partner if she could smell my birks as a joke and she said it was unbearable even after I had worn them with socks 😂🤮xx

    I like Birkenstocks and they are Comfortable and I like to Wear them Without Socks and To Air my Feet Out and Birkenstocks are Better Without Socks and Sandals are meant to Air Your Feet Out and are meant to be worn without Socks and to take your Socks Off
    Also I like wearing Birkenstocks Without socks to take my Socks Off and to Air My Feet Out and I prefer without Socks and do you prefer without Socks or with Socks
    My Favorite are the 2 Strap Arizona

    If I like the way something looks on me, I don’t give a rat’s behind if it’s in style or not. I’m so not up on trends, I didn’t even know Birkenstocks were a thing when I bought my first pair, to help with arch pain I was having. They are so comfy, I don’t want to wear anything else. And I think they look cute (I used to think they were ugly, go figure).

    I had a nice pair with three horizontal straps from when I was 13 years old. instead of the traditional two strap ones. I think they’re still in storage but I’m too lazy to look for them so I bought two new pairs; Arizona and Gizeh essential.

      3 strap is florida
      Thong no back is gizeh
      Thong with backstrap is kairo
      Arizona with backstrap is milano. These are ugly though.

    I love my Birks. I stopped wearing them for a while cause i wanted to follow the trend and style of the crowd, but after a while, im going back to Birks cause no other sandals or shoes can compete with the comfort of the Birks, and i dont much care for the opinion of others on whether the Birks are in style or not. If anyone hates them, then they're missing out. The Birks are so worth the price imo, and im planning to get a new pair since mine are very beat up after a few years of wear.

      @@Lapisphere the heel area on the insole should have a stamp that says “soft bed”….I started out my first few with the softbed - then got the original and now I would only buy original. The soft have less break in time, but still took me a while to wear them comfortably - however, once you do get comfortable in them, switching over to and breaking in the original foot bed is not so bad. Took maybe a week of short wear times. Then, I got a second pair of the original, and they were fine within a few days. I think due to the xtra cushioning, the soft bed is, well, softer, and flattens out somewhat eventually, whereas the original footbed is firmer and keeps the contours, so I think it’s more beneficial in the long run.

    Team love Birkenstock! So I love the shoes, when you have the break in phase behind you, for me they are the most comfortable shoes there are. I've done the repairing thing before, simply because I'm connected to my shoes when I've been wearing them for years. A new pair has not yet adjusted to my feet, so it's hard for me to say goodbye to them. Got a pair of Birkenstock Mayari like you too 👣😎😍 Best regards
