I wore birks almost exclusively for my final years in college. They definitely are stiff right out of the box, but as you wear them in they become perfect.
The sandal is basically an orthopedic wedge, it has to mold to your foot, leave them out in the sun for a few hours, let the footbed get hot and walk around in them for a while, it'll mold to your foot.
you really need to get them sized properly to give any sort of judgement call on the fit/feel. also they have versions that have a soft footbed right out the box if you don't want to spend the time to break them in
I have the soft footbed and they are uncomfortable
Probably my most worn footwear during the summer. So comfy once they’re broken in.
it hurts a bit when you first wear it during "break in" time but once the cork footbed forms to your feet, its the most comfortable footwear youll ever wear 🙌
I really like Birkenstock shoes. They are comfortable, made of natural materials and made in Germany.
You can have them re-soled with Vibram if you want a more durable re-sole.
Just like any shoe the right size matters. Not like Birks are randomly rare. Also I have seen wooks at hot springs around here (I live down the coast from you) use them as a weapon. Birkenstocks are awesome and classic. Great for river activities.
Venture Capitalists Bernard Arnault and his peers have swooped in on the opportunity to reap off the masses once BIRK begins appreciating. The sandal is a personal favorite though.
I know of a Birkenstock shopper in Berlin that owned equity under L Chatterton that privately manages the now publicly listed BIRK. She asked me if I was interested in getting shares early so as to earn a carry when they float the company.
Interesting. I would have swallowed up that offer. Are you fr? What do you do? Are there tools that allow investors to invest in companies before they hit the stock market, multiplying those potential gains that otherwise wouldn’t be available after the initial public offering.
I got a cobbler to resole my Arizonas with Vibram lugged outsole. Best hiking shoes I have!
As for regular resoles there are tons of cobblers that will replace the outsole with a Birk branded or Vibram outsole. It helps keep a ton of cobblers going.
In 2022 we need more people fixing instead of replacing
I'm going on year two of my first pair, and I'm a total convert. You have to invest the time to break them in, but once they shape to your foot, the fit is 1:1. I use mine as house shoes, and there's nothing more comfortable than throwing them on after a long day walking around the city, etc. I got regular nubuck, so can't speak to the quality of their synthetic stuff, but overall they've got to be the best money I've spent on footwear in recent memory. Looking at picking up the Kyoto model next.
Love my Birkebnstocks!!! I have many pair They do take a while to break in but after that they are hard to get off your feet. You should try the Boston's and if you try another pair get "soft bed."
Funny asl you made this vid my lady finally convinced me to get a matching pair. I can’t lie I like em from owning Gucci slides to Nike, Yeezy slides, RNRS etc I can’t lie they’re comfortable
I’m 22 and I’ve had foot pain for my whole life. No matter what type of shoe, insole, or width. I was thinking I needed a soft soft soft footbed to fix my toe numbness after wearing a shoe all day and then I just thought to try the opposite. I got a properly sized Arizona and it hurt at first 2 weeks. After wearing them daily my foot pain has completely gone away with zero toe numbness like I’ve always had. I’m convinced by their “technology” if you can call it that. I’m more than likely going to make my whole shoe lineup Birkenstocks. They have such a variety for any type of day. Fucken comfy, what can I say.
I don't understand all these people who say they need to be broken in. I got my first pair last summer, and from the moment I put them on I knew I'd never buy any other brand of shoe from then on out. They are made for my feet. Mayari was first, then Boston over the winter, and this summer it's Franca. All fit exactly the same. (Getting my size can be an issue, though. Hey Birkenstock guys, I need Zermatts for my 39 Regular/Wide duck feet, but apparently you don't make them anymore? They are NEVER in stock.)
Dude has a wall of overpriced cheap foam, plastic, and pleather made in sweat shops for pennies. Yet he was skeptical of quality cork/latex footbeds...
The original Reebok Question also molded to your foot, with their Hexalite tech. It's a shame the retros don't have the same build, because it's still a dope shoe and (from what I remember) was great to ball in. The new retros only have a Hexalite pod in the heel window in midsole.
Outsoles can definitely benefit with a modern-ish upgrade.
Maybe with Conti, Vibram, or Stealth outsoles.
Recently bought some oiled leather birks and they are amazingly comfy. They mould to your foot over time and are tried and true. A bit pricey but worth it IMO
_My Theory:_ Hes likes squishy shoes because he has no arch, Hes has a fallen arch because he wears squishy shoes.
Different footwear has different pros and cons of how it interacts with the body bio-mechanic engineering. Have my doubts that nature intended humans to spend their waking hours wearing a _Nike Air Zoom X React_ shoe. To that end, IMO, the best type of footwear would be one with a mostly hard, flat, wide base and midsole from which your foot would work as much as if you were barefoot but entirely protected by an upper and an outsole. Something like a boat shoe or a Goodyear welted shoe. Birkenstocks fit well within this scheme.
I have fallen arches as a result of my genetics. And Hes speaks for people like myself and helps us select footwear that is comfortable for our community. Some shoes can work for everyone, no matter your foot type. This, just like the ultra-squishy shoes, is not one of them.
Loved my Birks in college, but haven't worn a pair in 15 years.
I could fit a 43, if you just gonna scrap them, hit me up
Gotta break em in for sure…after a few wears they are great!!
These are still my go to for the daily :) they suck at first. But once its molded onto your feet - theyre very comfy!
Love these. Had no problem.They breakdown so well and mold to ur foot. Tho don’t expect them squishness 😂
Their new smell and colour fade through out longer usage is good.
Downside don’t do well with water and sandy places so not a beach kind of footwear. Cause they absorb and take quite a while to dry and if not dried well they give off a funky smell . Also because it’s closed up at the sides and the toes the sand and small debris tend to collect in the sandals itself.😅
Got a pair last month and been wearing em every day since. Helps to break them in quicker if your feet sweat while wearing them. Also bend them a few times before putting them on.
Very much like real dress shoes, the quality ones at least, most have cork in between insoles and outsoles and form to your feet as well. My most comfortable shoes (over 100+ sneakers) is a pair of shell cordovan wing tip dress shoes with double oak leather bottoms. Berks don't want to make rubber outsoles because people won't keep coming back for more as often. Just another perspective? Keep up the good work bruh!
Man, shell cordovan is some premium leather! I love seeing the crossover people from the dress shoe and sneaker world.
Which brand are they?
Hey @hes kicks u said u have flat feet so are your top slides review videos based on comfort for flat feet. I too have a flat feet. Pls respond.
The best way to break in is to wear exclusively around the house with socks for a few weeks... or longer for the big buckle style with the harder footbed lining. Eventually, the cork will soften to the foot. Then you have your "best bud" shoes for the next 10 years, and you will think it is worth replacing the outsole. However, only some people visit a cobbler for shoe repair anymore as shoes designed since the 1800s are manufactured to throw away and are not worth repairing. you may change your mind on wearing cheap shoes as you get older and consider them an investment in foot health rather than a fashion statement. Yes, being retired makes that easier.
The soft footbed ones are much better. Also you gotta bend them up a bit to loosen up the footbed.
it seems like theres more places to get custom soles, sole swaps, etc than there was a few years ago. theres even a bunch of places you can mail in your kicks to have it done if there isn"t someone loc
ITS NOT HES KICKS WITHOUT getting the wrong size/width :P
I've talked so much shit on these, and my wife has a pair she LOVES, and now I think I'm curious to try a pair now
birkenstock is really comfortable
for people that never use shoes with zoom or react or boost or other modern cushion technology lol
I bought a pair of Birkenstock shoes, they are nice I have not broken them in yet, what I really like about hem is that come in wide, naturally.
Love my broke in pair bircs
Hmmmm maybe I’ll have to give these another chance. I just drove to pick up a pair, tried them on and within 2 seconds I was like “helllllllll no” bafflingly uncomfortable
Surprised by this information I had know idea. Yesterday I tried a pair And felt like I was stepping in round rocks!! Really uncomfortable. I think should give another try! 😂😂
I never understood the concept of an acquired taste or footwear I need to dedicate time to breaking in when there are so many great options where you don’t have to spend that time to try and like them
Birkenstocks are old tech and for the time they came out in 1774, they must had been the best option for comfort footwear
I can't speak to Birkenstock but something like Redwing boots that end up molding to your foot are definitely worth it and much more quality materials than Birkenstock.
Is it ok to get wet in the rain in Birkenstock?
How comfortable are these for those of us with flat feet?
People with flat feet generally need arch support. These might hurt a bit to break in but they *could* help build up your arch.
Have you seen that SAUCONY X TOMBOGO BUTTERFLY coming out soon Hes? Looks nuts
You need to do a 5 month review like after wearing for 5 months because you have to get past the blisters at the beginning
Been wanting a pair. I got the clear weather bantha on sale good alternative
Same backstory bro in HighSchool, I also wore my exGF's Birkenstock 🤣😅
It takes time.. To wear them in. The best ones are the coverd toe ones.
Yes
you should try the Soft Footbed option which is much more friendlier for 1st time Birks users.
Boston suedes are my new house shoe they're perfect when cooking or doing any other household chores that probably need a closed toe shoe
No narrow foot is the soft footbed that is the one you want.
You can get the soft footbed in either width.
Support your local cobbler👍
ok i disagree. ive owned 3 pairs of birkenstocks which probably lasted me 5+ years while they do mold to your feet and get softer its nothing to write home about they are still uncomfortable and walking in them all day will kill your feet. I think people gravitate toward them because they are slides and there easy to slip on and the looks/style appeal to them just like any other sandal.
Can you please do nike pegasus turbo next nature☺️
Just watch out the size. Sizing is different
Your shoes aren't leather! Don't bake them! They'll melt! 😂
I have very wide feet and Birkenstock's Original footbed is about the only shoe that wears comfortably for myself. Always read the description. Sellers don't care that you didn't read it and refuse a return bc you didn't read their description! I've been stuck with a pair & I had to resale. I have Birkenstock's older than most of you! 😂 They ARE THE G.O.A.T. for A Reason! Break them in and they'll be your Bestfriend but PLEASE buy the correct size!
Birkenstocks are lit🔥🔥
Had a pair once upon a time, they were expensive and they were horrid in the rain.
To think that I live in a tropical country (🇵🇭).
Once I discovered Sandugo, Tribu and Habagat sandals, they offered better foot damping and grip, for 1/4 the price of Birkenstocks.
They kinda blatantly state these aren’t to get wet at all. That’s why they made the EVA version and those are only 40 USD.
@@raigresham1298 40 USD is still expensive in a 🇵🇭 setting.
Those Sandugo, Tribu, Habagat sandals go for 8.93-16.07 USD, provide Birkenstock-level cushioning, and can be used in sandy, rocky, and waterlogged terrain.
@@judemorte3095 oh yeah, I know there are cheaper sandals. That can be said with just about anything. But as I get older, especially with shoes, many times the adage “you get what you pay for” is true. Plus, just as you live in a different climate, I live in a desert, where their sandals are perfect pretty much year round.
I kind of want to try it out.
Nike pegasus turbo next nature
yeah I'm 10US and wears 42 on Birks to get the right fit.. you definitely got the BOATkenstock.. 😂
He's Hes and he's the best
I don't like them but they take a year to break in
jebus approved. aaaaaaaaasaaaamen!
I knew u would review these this summer after all those slide videos, it was worth the wait.
Why the dumb sound each time a new image is added? It’s annoying.
comfartable not really but durable and quality is on point, i use their clogs ( super birki the original insoles comes with is so hard imo i changed it to heffe luxx) and it's comfortable 🙂.
Look a bit big on you, if those are 43 you might need 42
The more you wear them the better they are.
I feel like if the shoe doesn't fit, you shouldn't make a review video.
That cork conform to your feet, I work at DSG in the footwear Dept, them shits expensive AF tho $125+
If you really want comfort, just get a Nike offcourt sandals
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
We wanted an on feet view with no socks, come on.
bro, next try birkenstock bend low. cork sneaker.
??
I bought my pair and do not wear my sneakers anymore, dress shoes and birks, all my shoes have inches of dust on them
Sorry in this day and age... breaking in a pair of shoes is ridiculous. Should be comfortable right of the bat.
Some of us have to wear suits for work. If dress shoes are a part of your wardrobe, breaking in shoes is among your activities. Same with work boots, a pair of Red Wing Iron Rangers doesn't come broken in from the box.
If you live in sneakers, then yes, breaking in shoes will be a concept foreign to you. 👍
They are extremely uncomfortable
just wear yeezy slide at this point
Never liked them and probably never will
eva is so outdated! Birks should evolve by now...
What? There's no EVA in a Birk Arizona...
You have to break them in, they're trash at first
Why do ppl who wear Birkenstocks look like dirty hippies lol.......please don't tell my wife I said this cause that's all she wears if I don't make her wear her Jay's lol
Why did people who used to line up for Jordans around Christmas threaten, assault, and sometimes resort to gun violence against others in line like street thugs LOL? I say did, because there was so much violence the stores can no longer put people who want certain Air Jordans together while they're being sold.
Anyone can play the stereotype game...
is not comfortable
bostons >
Literally Jesus sandals
No they are not. I purchased a pair from Amazon and Now they are simply house shoes 😂😂😂
Amazon is full of fake ones.
They are nice, but they are girl shoes lol specialized for teenage girls actually
Noooooo don't put them in the oven use boiling water!
I haven't yet maybe ill try that!
