| i have several pairs. At first you will hate them but if you have patience they will fast become the only shoes you will wear. See you have to break in the foot bed to mold to your foot then they are heaven. Good luck with them |

| Ooh, I LOVE Birkenstocks, I've been wearing them since high school (and that's many, many, many, years - LOL!).

| I actually have that pair in the picture. At first I thought and so what is the big deal about these but as the above poster said once you get them broke in you live in them. I plan to buy more styles in the near future because I have never had a pair of sandal's that I have loved even close to these. But remember you have to give them a chance to grow on you!

My Tiny Treasures Donating Member | I just always wondered what was so special about these $100 sandals that look like the cheapo sandals Walmart sells So I had to try them! I heard you need to break them in. So I'll give them time and see. I'm excited to try them! |

| I wore them in college all the time. I LOVED mine. I have the sandals and the clogs. I still wear them occasionally, but they are old looking Now I wear my crocs all the time to work.

| I love them. I wear the sandals all summer long & I wear the clogs in the winter. You do need to break them in, but once you do you will live in them. Desiree |

| I used to live in Birk's in Alaska! They are so comfy, especially after wearing for awhile and they become really worn in. You will love them |

| I have a pair of clogs/slip ons that I dearly love. My podiatrist says they are not the best, but better than many shoes out there.

| I don't have those ones, but I have two other pair of Birkenstock sandals. I LOVE them and wear them all the time. In fact, the one pair I love to much that I just had them re-soled because the style stopped being sold two years ago.

| I have a pair but don't wear them often, being only 5' I normally try to look taller My husband swears by them, he has a bad back and he puts these on the minute he gets out of bed and the first thing when he gets home from work. Sometimes you can find the ones with the double strap across the foot at Sam's Club for around 39.00 which is a major bargain. |
