Thoughts on the Birkenstock Bostons?
I want some summer sandals but my feet are hideous because I broke my toes a gorillion times. These cover the toes

No. Youll look like a faggy hippie.

looks bad with slimmer pants
looks good with looser pants

>>18463792
Who cares?

>>18463700 (OP)
These are super overplayed by the broccoli heads right now, I see at least 3 or 4 pairs every time I go to the gym

>>18464079
I'm a rapidly aging millennial (35) so I couldn't possibly give a shit what zoomers do or think

i love mine for winter. i like to tan my feet so i'm back to arizonas now though.

>>18464230
i'm not rapidly aging, but this. they're one of the best shoes to wear barefoot.

>>18463934
"looks good" is a strong word for those

I wear mind around the garden and running errands. The other poster is right. They only good with loose fit pants and earth tones. They’re not particularly comfy either but as far as slippers that are useful for walking around the yard or whatever they’re hard to beat.

>>18464737
i think they can look sick sometimes

>>18463700 (OP)
I use them aorund the house tho I don't have the comfidence wear them outside

they can look good with some outfits. mainly looser fits like other anons said. i own a pair but I just wear them as slippers or for when im in the garden. mine are looking p beaten up and I've only had them 2 years, so i think the quality has diminished. they're p comfy once broken in though. they're mad overplayed atm however, just this week I've seen probably 10 people wearing them and i live in a small town.

>>18463700 (OP)
If you want a pair of closed-toe sandals, I would consider a pair of huaraches since they're more breathable & look better in shorts or with no socks

>>18464947
Those are African wedding core

>>18464896
that fit would be better with boots or gats
also denim on denim is an abomination even if the pieces are nice

>>18465698
gotta disagree on both. imagine wearing boots in tropical weather all day. i got seamonkey friends that do it but miss me that just seems so uptight.

>>18463792
update your cultural conceptions boomer

>>18465757
birkenstocks are great for wearing fun socks

>>18463700 (OP)
Just get open toed instead so your feet wont get all sweaty

>>18463700 (OP)
>I broke my toes a gorillion times
Are you one of those fags who did ballet growing up?

>>18466314
No, just skateboarding mostly but my shit is completely mangled on one of my feet, ugly hammer toes that look disgusting in open toes. I probably broke each toe at least twice

>>18463700 (OP)
The Birkenstock footbed takes a while to get used to. Other than that they're great.

>>18463700 (OP)
Post your feet, i'll tell you if they are ugly or not.

I have 20 years of experience as a footfag, i know the precise arche angle and toes alignment that make your feet attractive or not.

>>18465758
reddit called, they want their balding millenial with his cactus and his old dog back.

>>18466366
Toes are hammered

>>18466367
i didnt realize cactuses and dogs were reddit

>>18466446
Very much so, yes

>>18466446
There's nothing more reddit that an interior with cactuses, some ethnic knitted rug (not on the floor) and some shit abstract art (not on the wall).

*cacti

>>18466348
>just skateboarding
even worse

>>18466360
Is the cork better than the rubber/pastic?

>>18466590
much better, but the rubber ones (EVA) are great for the beach/rain or when you just don't want to get your leather ones fucked up. i do outdoor sales in the summer so a light-breathable polo/ short-shorts and Arizonas are my "uniform".
watch a video on how to care for the suede footbed and your feet will thank you every time you step into them.

>>18465702
just don't live in the third world lol
sounds like a skill issue

>>18466647
I've had EVAs for going on five years now, and they're falling apart. I'm tempted to "upgrade" to these: https://www.birkenstock.com/us/arizona-grip-natural-leather/arizona-vintagewood-naturalleather-0-evarubber-m_1699.html

>>18467076
are you me? the grips are awesome, and a good compromise between the types. i spilled beer all over the strap and it was much easier to clean than the oiled leather of suede ones ive had before. im on a lot of concrete and pavement so the regular soles just get shredded. i'm planning on wearing them for work this weekend, but if it's rainy and muddy i'm using one of the EVAs instead.

Im always on the thinnest hole in the Arizona. Will the Boston's fit too wide, given the lack of the forefoot strap? Ive tried the footbed but that squished my toes together too much, in the Arizona, so the standard width would be my preference. Question goes to anons ITT who mentioned they wore both.

>>18467485
>Ive tried the footbed
*meant to say, I've tried the narrow footbed. They make different widths

>>18467367
>spilled beer all over the strap and it was much easier to clean than the oiled leather of suede ones ive had before. im on a lot of concrete and pavement so the regular soles just get shredded.
Are you talking about the Cork or the EVA?

>>18467535
the cork

sandals are gross on guys. people always say
>men should never wear blah blah blah
which is usually bullshit but men really should not wear sandals. i don't care if your toes are hidden I don't wanna see your bare heels. disgusting.

>>18467717
Fag alert! Found the fag in the comments! The fag is right here!
I just don't care what (you) (a fag) thinks, I'm wearing my sandals with and without hiding my toes, faggot

>>18468157
Imagine speaking like this in reality, with a high pitched, whiny voice

I swear I’m pretty much only wear Birkenstocks and Rainbow sandals these days.

>>18464896
>Faggot wearing a crisp new jacket with obvious artificial distressing
God I hate posers so much it's unreal.

>>18468657
Imagine being a giant fag. Which you can, because you're a fucking fag.

>>18468157
>dresses like a woman
>says you are gay if you don't like it
no amount of reverse psychology is going to make you not a cocksucker lil bro. don't be crying when you get bashed for prancing around in daisy dukes and chancletas.

>>18469042
here i fixed it, everything here is sick.

>>18464896
>Look sick
>Example photo of a lesbo or some sort of FTM? Honestly can't tell.
>Loose baggy fit from 20 years ago
>Inseam too long so it pools at the bottom of her legs
>Weird fake distressing that doesn't make sense unless your job is sitting at a desk and grinding your jacket with sandpaper on the edge
Honestly terrible fit.

>>18469318
You don't wear those Birks with bare feet.

>>18464896
Dykes are not allowed to post on a board focused on *male* fashion.

>>18470398
why not?

>>18464079
Yeah I see them everywhere now. They're replaced slides as the shoe of choice for Walmart people/normies.

>>18463700 (OP)
You can get copies or other brands. Just search for "leather clogs."
God-damned Shane Gillis wears the Birkenstocks on his podcast.

>>18464896
that looks mad uncomfortable

holy shit dude, you're browsing a FASHION forum and you're late too trends so much that even fucking retarded normies on TikTok will know you're out of style
DUDE IT'S OVER END IT

>>18470595
It's the rule.

>>18463700 (OP)
I wore Tokios when I worked in a kitchen.
Pretty comfortable, but I can't wear anything but barefoot shoes anymore. Just don't weigh a billion pounds. If you're a lardass you're gonna blow the insoles.

>>18463700 (OP)
>>18463934
They look like something your alcoholic Aunt who never left the house wore.

>>18464917
Good, they look dumb and not practical to walk in for further than a mile.

People have gotten very lazy. They wear pyjamas in public, now. They're just all huge slobs, now.

a lady i work with wears the same size and we trade lol. i have smol feet, but my toes are long though so they look nice.

>>18471739
because they look cool and theyre suede and the cork footbed is comfortable and lasts longer than synthetic insoles.

only low value "males" and little boys put other men down like that. if you were happy in your own life you wouldn't be so focused on other men. unless you're some kind of faggot or something.

funny how quickly fashion moves

I didn't catch on to the boston clog thing til Spring 2024. Got lots of use of out of them that Summer. Nodded at a few fellow cloggers out and about, thought we all looked pretty sick. Some well-dressed mfers wearing these things.

but 12 months later - now they're everywhere, and the cool kids have moved on. Apparently it's all about flip flops and exposed toes now for this Summer.

>>18472766
shut the fuck up

>>18472766
>exposed toes
as someone with ugly feet, i wish this wasnt the trend.

>>18473011
that's not a trend. that faggot wishes it was a trend.

They’re good if you’re
>young
>fucking around the garage/lawn/garden
>are a fucking hippie
That’s it. When college aged guys wear them around in public, I don’t think much of it. Young guys dress like casual hippies. That’s part of being young. Once they get older, it makes them look like a crunchy hippie. Like what? Loafers were too mature for you?

>>18465754
This. These are for microplastic söyboys with allergy problems now not dirty hippies who fuck covered in mud and have bedbugs.
