And I find them awfully uncomfortable too. My feet loathe that type of support. Plus they are sandals and too wide everywhere. But I <b><i>do</i></b> support the look on others. Have clients who only wear Birkies in Summer. It can be done with style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-birkies-trend-centre-stage#post-1208212 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 02:17:13 +0000 Elizabeth P 1208212@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tee hee. I have two pairs of Birks (one to be replaced soon, was going to get black Arizonas, but am liking the silver ones Una posted...). They are my slippers. And three pairs of Mephistos, the flip flop style, Hale I think, in patent white, black and cobalt. Love them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-birkies-trend-centre-stage#post-1208196 Sat, 29 Mar 2014 01:55:36 +0000 Gigi 1208196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Golden, that *is* a lot of Birkies!

I do definitely need more walkable sandals, though...</p> <p>But definitely be aware that they run BIG. You may not be able to go by the Nordie's size guide at all. Try them on first!</p> <p>To wit: I wear a solid 6B in most shoes, sometimes going down to a 5.5. Euro size is usually around 36. My Birk size is 35 narrow--and which is not a size 4-4.5 American as all the Birk charts say it is. So...ya know.
