        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

            @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

                    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.

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

                          Edit: just looked em up. Interesting.

                            @Mizmazzle Initially I was worried about them being a bit of a gimmick. But they’ve held up great and are still comfy after a couple years of general, not too heavy, wear.

                              @Danimal506 little more spring to the step I’d imagine.
