BIRKENSTOCK-Last for decades, hidden… but shown here on IH.

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle these are very cool and I love the color too. Hope they end up breaking in and working out for your trip.

[Mizmazzle]

@SKT thanks dude! Been wearing em non stop. Did yard work in them yesterday. Think they’re going to be fine.
Course this is Colorado so…75° yesterday into this today….

[SKT]

@Mizmazzle you get the full spectrum!

Bostons in need off some TLC but super loved and worn.

@Mizmazzle got me a pair of the Insignia Blue too but opted with the back strap. I LOVE this blue oiled leather. Package came by surprise today.

[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 ‍️

[Denimhead 0]

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.

[Danimal506]

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!!
