      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.

                  Sounds like a book.

                      I'd like to introduce @echoparkcowboy who's down in LA and makes Crocs look p good:

                        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.

                            Going on 10 years for this pair. They were navy. I’m not cool enough to buy purple. This is my 5-6 pair. I have yet to find anything more comfortable. Left my feet out the pic on purpose😄

                                      Hahahaha a multiple Birk owner like me! How do you like having the back strap on those Milanos, @seawolf?

                                        I’ve never worn a pair of Birk sandals without the back strap, so I love it!
