      Great topic! I got these in 1999 and they are pretty much all I wear when the weather gets warm enough to not wear socks and I don’t have to have my work boots on. I can’t remember how many times they have been re soled. The only thing original is the leather. Probably cheaper to buy a new pair every couple years, but the sentimental value is worth more to me.

          Thanks @henry_david I loved the photo you posted in the overalls section in the white Boston’s so much I got a pair for myself. So glad I did. I love em. Very comfortable. Thanks for the inspiration!

            Where has this thread been all of my life?! I'm in Birkenstocks 365 days/year. Pics to follow!

              I always enjoy a thread I cannot contribute to. Means I can sit back and be a passive reader regarding something I know nothing about [emoji1]

                  Dude @deanclean!!! Aren't they sick?! Glad you like them. I happen to appreciate how hard wearing the sole is on those compared to the classic EVA sole. And the pebble leather is super nice, too. They look great on you.

                    @henry_david yes they are great.  i love the pebbled leather as well.  I was only wearing them around the house for the first while because I thought people would think "what is this guy doing was those ugly things on his feet" then I snapped out of it and realized this isnt high school and I never cared then what people think so why should I now.  I love them, I think they look great and they are comfy as hell. @neph93 just grab yourself a pair and jump in!

                      The chances of me jumping into that pool are somewhere between zero and none @deanclean. You’re all men of substance and taste so there is clearly something I’m missing here, but what it is, I do not know. No matter how I turn it in my head I can’t think of an area in life I would use these.

                        My wife wears Birkenstock sandals as house shoes. Probably not warm enough in your environment though, Reuben

                          I've been wearing them since I was 14 years old, and to me there's nothing more comfortable for my high arches than a pair of broken-in birkenstocks. I prefer wearing them to being barefoot, and I wear them in the house daily and out of the house almost daily. Most of my footwear comes in the form of Birkenstocks or Wesco boots, and that's what I wear whenever I'm awake.

                            You know what's up, @seawolf  😃 I felt much like you did, @deanclean. And then I thought: "Dude. You're 31. When're you gonna finally choose to be comfy and not give a fuck?" So now I have three pairs of Birks for different scenarios (weather changes, dinners with friends, around the house, etc.) and wear a women's handbag as a tote cause I think it's cute.  ???

                              Ha, glad everyone is allowing themselves to enjoy what they like and not concern themselves too much with looking goofy.  Great looking Birks, everyone.

                                        I don’t have a pair myself but if crocs are your thing go for it. If someone likes a thing they’re wearing they are probably making it look good.
