      I think Birks are close to being objectively ugly but man they feel good.

      I really wish they had made these abominations in my size. See these @jordanscollected ?

        They are objectively ugly, and I wear them every day! They're so comfortable. I kind of recently discovered the soft footbed, and that's a whole other level.

          Unfortunately I just found and bought a pair of those hideous Turkey and the Wolf Birks linked above

            @seawolf I've given up on my Birks since we moved house. I now enjoy the comforts of underfloor heating

                @Tago-Mago Oh, that's the move right there! I mostly wear my birks indoors for the arch support, but if I had heated floors, it might be a different story.

                    @mclaincausey Amazing! It was in the stars.

                    I saw a pair in the wild a few weeks ago, so it's funny that you mentioned them today. Congrats!

                          God dammit. Those are nice.

                          I have all of the parts to make my own Birkenstock Milano or Arizona, but I haven't had the time. Maybe when summer rolls around.
