I’m not making this up — Birks are back. My college self is saying ‘hallelujah’, but as a reminder: not washing your hair until it dreads, wearing sweat pants to class and/or the bar, and thinking that febreeze is a perfume is not back. College Kendi, you stay where you belong.
But what is back is wearing classic black Birks with your neutrals and your darks. I think I prefer the soft suede the best. Think you can pull it off? Thoughts on Birkenstocks — yay or cray?
(also no matter your ‘yay’ vote or ‘cray’ vote, I’m still getting a pair. anyone up for beer pong later after we study?)

I am on the “yay” side of this vote. I’m partially stunned they’ve come back as a fashionable option but hey, I’m all about comfort!
I think they look super cute. And I love comfort so hard. Also, in college, I convinced my mom’s bf to make me an amazing beer pong table out of beautiful wood, with a classy blue paint job on the top. It was the talk of the town. I miss that thing.
um, where’s the thick socks to wear with?!
that’s the next post 😉
Oh, man….I have to ‘nay’ this ‘cray’ trend. I remember breaking up with
Oh my gosh….I have brown Birkenstocks! Are only the black ones in now? Will I be looked down upon for wearing brown ones?! Haha… I am loving the looks above though.
~Jessica
Haha, loved Birkenstocks. And I still think Febreeze should come out with a legitimate perfume because that smell is amazing.
Oh, man. i have to ‘nay’ this ‘cray’ trend! I remember breaking up with a boyfriend because he wore ‘Jesus sandals’…extremely shallow of me, I know (but grass-stained jeans and stretched out t-shirts were also a part of his get ups…)
I’ve been wearing my black Birks since I bought them in Germany on a high school trip (11 years ago!). Glad to know I’m back on trend! 😉
Definitely glad I didn’t throw my birks away all those years ago! Although back when I wore them, it was also really cool to wear them with wool socks. Like the thick ones that your dad wears. And then sweatpants, and then some girls who were, you know, really fashionably bold, would tuck the bottoms of their sweatpants into said dad-socks. Fashion forward, us Canadians, amiright!?
Let’s just say this time my dad can keep his socks…
I have to say nay. I love comfy sandals, but this style is just a no-go for me.
I’m in, I owned a pair when I was younger, but I love that comfy…sort of cute/sort of ugly shoes…are making a comeback. As long as they aren’t flatforms!
I still have two pair from HS/college that i wore ALL THE TIME. Even in the snow, with the think wool socks. What makes this look work now, is pairing the sandals with something more delicate or tailored. Not the over sized jeans and XL t-shirts of the 90s. Now that over sized shirt is made of chiffon and worn as a dress (see above).
More power to Birk lovers, but I think I’ll leave this item to others …
I remember in the 90’s when I was about 8 years old, and my mom had a pair of birkenstocks. She wore them everywhere and loved them. Every summer I would buy a cheap pair from Walmart (since kids feet grow so quickly I wasn’t allowed real ones) and I never took them off till they fell apart. Maybe now it’s time to get myself my first real pair… I’m a definite ‘yay’ for this trend!
I never was fan of these but seeing them combined in this way I actually like them 🙂

I used to wear Birkenstock clogs year round in undergrad… unless it was too hot, then I just wore flip flops. Unfortunately I wore the cork out and haven’t gotten a replacement… yet.
I already have a pair. And I love ’em.
I’m not a fan of Birkenstock because they aren’t fashionable and to be honest aren’t that comfortable. You are right about the whole pj’s and going to school look
CRAY. But they ARE comfortable. However,m that does not make them cute, though I guess they are “in” now.

I have birks in light tan and I think I look a hot mess when I try and wear them with anything normal. I think it’s the black ones that look more chic. I was tempted to by a pair but with the colder weather approaching I chickened out. I can’t wait to see how you style them!
Hurrah!!! Birks= functional fashion. They have some other styles that aren’t as 90’s hippie-tastic, too.
Definitely have to say “nay” (and “cray”). Sorry Kendi! I just think the shoes are ruining every single one of those outfits above.
I see these all around campus and they look so comfortable, but I can’t do it! I do like the solid black with the bright blue toes but not for me haha
Angela @ Pens & Peonies!
If loving Birks is wrong, than I don’t wanna be right.
As far as I am concerned, they NEVER went ‘out’ of style… my love for them is here to stay!… plus they have updated and have different styles now…. always black ones….. then and now.x

major yay.

Love ’em. Girls gotta take a break from heels sometimes!
I just ordered a pair on Tuesday, so Yay!
They are comfortable that’s for sure. your feet have the tendency to go wide after wearing birkies. the best version is the the whole black Arizona (black leather footbed, like the pair Sabrina has on). Amazon has this shop located in Germany that sells them (hopefully to be restocked because my size sold out a couple of days ago).
ha i saw a TON of ppl wearing birkenstocks in italy so it must be true. xo jillian – cornflake dreams
I’m not a fan of Birks. They remind me of my 7th grade best friend, we had very opposite styles! They look cute in these pics, but I think I’ll stick to my ballet flats for heel free days!

I have a pair of Think sandals (also German, super comfy, and same style). They’re my oldest shoes, and I always end up wearing them at least a few times during the summer. They’re great when you’re on your feet a lot. As comfortable as they are ugly to some people, I’m sure. Mine are black leather that was cut into a delicate lacy pattern. Love.
I love my Birkenstocks. I bought a pair about two months ago because I was going on vacation to the east coast and needed a good pair of walking shoes. My Birks were fantastic and soooo comfortable. I didn’t even need to break them in! I’m not a huge fan of the classic Birkenstock shoe style, especially since they have so many more styles (much cuter!) to choose from.
Cray!! They are sups ugly ;-P But I’m sure Kendi will find a way to look cute either way.
I love that you just said ‘sups’ — double points for you.
lol yay
yep, they are so college….not sure if I can go back!
I LOVE my birkenstocks! They’re the most comfy shoes known to man. I don’t care how college/hippy/goofy they look, I’ll keep wearing them. I’m all for utilitarianism in my fashion choices.
I think I’m loving that they’re back! My older sister had a pair when we were younger and I was always jealous 🙂
Some of the prints they have out now are super cute!

I love Birks! My mum always wore them when I was a kid (I even had a pair when I was really little) but when I was a pre-teen I though her Birk wearing ways were super embarrassing. I have seen the light though and when I was in about grade 11 I got another pair. I absolutely love them and have worn them ever since. I am a fan of the t-strap style ones.
-Emily
Nay, my style is really laid back but I would only wear them at home because they do look comfy.
It’s a nay for me. I think they look clunky on the foot and even the models pictured above look like they have lumberjack feet. 🙂
I never thought Birkenstocks were cute until now!

I never had a pair when they were “cool” in high school so you can bet your ass I went for it this time. Soft suede for me. (But honestly, they aren’t all that comfy.)
i dont hate it!
http://www.from-TheLionsDen.blogspot.com
me neither 😉
What cold possibly be wrong with being conscious about the support your feet need!? And with so many options to choose from, Everyone can find a pair that works for them!
Noooooooo!! So much no! But I will play beer pong with you any day of the week 🙂
Errr………..no. I have a pair of (pink) Maseur sandals, which are similar, but I never, ever wear them out. I got them in pink for that reason, they work with nothing I own, so are relegated to the beach and around home;rather like the Crocs knock-offs I use for showering in caravan park facilities – great in their place. I am occassionally tempted to buy a pair in a neutral shade, because I have foot issues (heels are out forever), but I have restrained myself thus far.
No way Jose! I had enough of Birks back in the 90’s when they were cool the first time. They make my size 10’s look like Flintstone feet. :oP
I just got a pair of Birkenstocks and love them! I had an old pair that was very heavy, but the new ones are so light and comfortable! In Germany, I saw them on women of all ages and they looked so comfortable that I couldn’t resist buying a pair.
Love that birks are back! I need to get myself a pair stat!
Mmm…. I’m not there yet. YET.
haven’t had a pair since college either. hmmm, i may stick with my mocs. http://semiweeklyeats.blogspot.com/2013/10/work-outfit-3.html
can’t wait to see you style them! i’m with Jannira and not there yet (but not totally discounting it).
No way. Not at all about this in the fashion industry, but totally all for it for my friends who hate fashion!

As a teacher and therefore someone who stands all day.. and who has a bad back, love them. I have three pairs of Gizeh’s. They do make your outfit a little more casual, but my back is thankful.

I love this post! I have been thinking about pulling mine out of the bottom of my closet lately and this just inspired me to do so! Thanks!
I kinda like this trend coming back. they are so comfy.
Hells Yeah! I have a dark brown pair I got in Germany and they are soooooo comfy. I think the Birks all look really cute with the outfits above. I’m a runner, so I like to wear supportive shoes whenever practical when I’m not running. Take care of your feet girls – they’re the only ones you got!
well that’s dang good news. my mom just gave me her old birks and they’re the only shoes i own that don’t make my feet cry.
they’re a bit masculen. I wouldn’t wear them but it looks cool on someone else. 🙂 http://comedomenica.blogspot.com/
I;ve noticed that they’re having a moment and I think I’m okay with it! Not sure if i would ever add a pair to my wardrobe (my feet are very skinny… might look weird) but the leather ones look dressier and are kind of cool!
http://www.confessionsoftheglitterati.com/
yay! I love them. I can’t believe it but I really do:)
yes, yes, a thousand times YES! Also, helllllllo arch support!

I love birkenstocks! my fiancé has some and he calls them his “jesus joggers”.
I think they look absolutely horrible in that first photo. The other ones are not quite as bad. I think there are much better options for comfortable footwear, though.
Personally, I had brutally painful plantar fascitis foot pain for a year and a half, which I healed by walking barefoot as much as possible.
For me, the most comfortable shoe is one that has pretty much no heel and is super flexible… like a ballet flat with a leather sole. Anything with “support” flairs up my foot problems, almost immediately.
Yay. I too had horrible plantar fasciitis and the only shoe that felt good on my feet were birks. I wore them even though they weren’t cool and just “made it work”. I’m so happy to know they’re legit now and everyone will embrace my choice.
dig it.
I had this and my mom made me throw them out!!! I need them.

I prefer the more feminine styles (like Adria & Mayari) over the classic two-strap, but they are super comfy!

Seriously Cray Cray!
Seriously Cray Cray!
I never stopped wearing my birks. I’ve been wearing them for years and I’ll keep wearing them forever. I honestly find it kind of annoying that suddenly high fashion people are all over it because vogue wrote a silly article putting them on a pedestal but at the same time calling them UGLY!

OK, I’ll be the honest guy here chiming into this Birkenstock discussion. I highly recommend them to women,especially all moms and potential moms. Almost all the women I know swear by them. They are like the Cadillac of flip flops and thong sandals. Maybe not for looks but the comfort factor by reputation outweighs the ugly rep they supposedly have. They don’t look all that bad to me. The Gizehs are the most popular from what I’ve seen. I think they look pretty cool on women and are quite flattering to the feet IMO. The Mayari and the Adria styles are also gaining in popularity. Seen a lot of women wearing these aside from the Gizehs and Arizonas.
I wish people would stop saying “Cray Cray”. I mean, seriously? Oh yeah and it’s a definite yay for Birks
