[Mizmazzle]

@Oaktavia yea man!! That color is so cool!!
I also went with the back strap and really like it. Makes walking feel so stable.
Mine are getting pretty comfortable already too!

[Oaktavia]

@Mizmazzle hah whoops! Not sure why I mistook that. I love the Bostons but wanted a new open toed pair. Diggin' it and dig that you dig yours.

[Mizmazzle]

@Oaktavia I dig that you dig!
I actually dug some weeds in mine the other day!

[pechelman]

that's the cleanest footbed ive ever seen on a pair of birks that look that well used @Oaktavia
Do you wear socks in the boston's all the time or do you have some wizardry cleaning routine?

[gr8 selvedge]

My two cents.

[Oaktavia]

@pechelman ah I would say yeah most of the time I wear socks with them. I actually sized up to compensate for thick socks. Didn't need to do that though. But yeah ‍️

The blu ones are my fav

[Oaktavia]

@Denimhead-0 oh wow those are all awesome choices in your collection. I like the blue the best too.

[Mizmazzle]

Those are all great!!

After some leather oil yesterday.

[Mizmazzle]

These have served me quite well this summer. Might be time for some leather love soon.

Anybody have experience getting their Birks rebuilt? The cork sole on my pair is really starting to come apart now after 5 or so summers.

I’ll try and add some pics after work

[GraemeE]

@Danimal506 depending on whether you just need the cork footbed or a resole as well it's typically in the $60-100 range in my experience .

I've done it a couple times on my one non-suede pair of bostons I've had for years, even though it's not that much more just to replace them, because the leather is so soft and beat up that I want to keep them alive forever

[denim-dawg]

I have worn the classic B inside and outside no matter the season… but forgot to pack them for Japan… borrowed these.

[Mizmazzle]

@denim-dawg willow women!!

Finally got around to snapping a couple pics of my Bostons and my Arizonas. The Arizonas definitely need to be repaired before next summer.

I love my Birks! I got my first pair in 2019 for summers when I lived in Chicago. I grew up in San Diego wearing Rainbow sandals. I wanted something more comfortable for walking in the city. These have five hard summers of wear on them. The Bostons I got for the winter when it’s cooler out. I got the air soles in the Bostons and really like them. I wish my Arizona’s had the air soles too. None the less, they’re so damn comfy!! I really want some Zerrows some day.

Finally caved on some bostons and I love them! Went for the oiled black leather in the end and really like the dusty looking leather. Super comfortable and convenient, plus sexy as fuck.

Not my pooch, we’re dog sitting

[Danimal506]

@jerkules Bostons and denim are such a good combo!

[Mizmazzle]

@Danimal506 what are air soles? Don’t think I’ve ever noticed those before.

Edit: just looked em up. Interesting.
