    Birkenstock heirs become instant billionaires when they sold their company in 2021 to a private firm and their new designs i heard were crap. So yeah theyre making money using Birkenstock good reputation for 2 centuries 😢. Some of their new designs didnt even have cork insole. I hope they wont change the old designs bec i only wear Birks 95% of the time.

      @mrandmrscorona8658 I was about to buy the new QO500 as an alternate for my Bend Low and I saw Rose Anvil's review, there was no cork in there but a thin tape-like material that looks like cork(no wonder he said people were complaining it hurt their feet instead), fake stitching outside among other else. It's one of their newer design and I was excited but I was shocked and saddened to learn that they sold it to a company that only wants to get more money than protecting the brand's quality reputation, I even heard that reputable cobblers that repair Birkenstock refused to service any Birks(even the older, original design) now because of this. Like seriously, how expensive it can be to use real cork and they're selling it for $155?

    I have these in white and have had them for almost two years and they remain super comfortable and show very little wear on the soles. The sticker showing the materials reads from top to bottom upper (100% Leather). inner sole (Leather and cork hence the two symbols) and the sole in this case is 100% natural rubber.
    The footbeds are made in Germany and the uppers as you say, Portugal. The leather is European ethically sourced and the rubber and cork components are all enviromentally and ethically sourced.
    If you are sharing the shoes with someone I would highly recommend getting a replacement set of inner soles for them as these soles mould to the foot after time so could cause comfort and support issues.

    You are right. I am wearing my sandals all over the place even though I like shoes and work boots! I don't even like sandals but tried them after complaining about foot pain, and they do really take pressure off of pain points and redistribute it somehow. Now I am looking into either getting shoes like yours here, or their Birki Sport insoles that go into regular walking shoes.

      These are not like their traditional sandals in that respect as I have found where my heal strikes the ground the normal sandal soles last barely a summer before that section has worn down to the cork so I never wear the sandals now but their shoes are much better in that respect.

    From a sizing point of view would you go for 1cm space up front or 1.5cm space? Not sure whether to go for a UK9.5 or UK10.5.

      I like the option of wearing thick socks so I generally size up…

      Hope you get a chance to try them in store… specially because the curvature of the insole would be uncomfortable if it’s the wrong size…

    Did you size down for these? I normally wear a size 10 but for the sandals I wear a size 9. Should I get a 9 for these as well?

    • @mrandmrscorona8658

      I don’t think the sandals are a good reference… because of the openness of the toe box…

      Note that with sandals people normally don’t wear socks… with these shoes you might be compelled to wear socks so make sure you compensate for the thickness of the socks…

    its too bad that it has fake cork. If you look at the dissections of other shoes from birken they put cork on the outside to make you think it has it when it doesn't.

    Have fun getting those shoes resoled. All Birkenstock shoes are made in Portugal with a lower profile when it comes to the outer sole. It’s not hold up. Not even a month old, NOT the standard original Birkenstock outer sole 😡
