Birkenstock Arizona's...

Trendy or naff?

I've been wearing Birkies for around 29 years and have noticed the Arizona's becoming more trendy lately. Wondering whether to invest in a new pair for summer in bronze metallic.

I wouldn't bother asking if they are trendy. If you like them and will wear them buy them. FWIW (so going back on my original point), I think they are seen as more "stylish" in neutral tones. I have them in black and a beige suede

I have some and despite me thinking they're fugly, I get compliments.
They are quite old and I wore them when they weren't trendy. Neutral is probably best.

They went through a v trendy point over the last couple of years, which means that they are still quite cool. Particularly as sustainable fashion is the in thing now so trends aren’t moving as fast as they were.

But I don’t like bronze metallic! Go black or white.

I wear birkies all summer. I have the metallic pair but my absolute faves are my taupe shade. Go with everything. Nice painted nails are a must.

I have to admit, I wear Arizonas in the winter with socks 😮 instead of slippers (Strictly in the house only) but for walking I much prefer Mayari or the ones with the toe post - gizeth I think?

Arizona's are my fave style. I love the light tan colour in suede. They have big buckle ones on sale at the moment on ASOS.

Which colours look best with pale skin? My ink coloured ones are about to die and want a neutral but don’t know what shade is best for pale/pasty skin

I live arizona's, and i like the look with socks, i also wear this at home pickle! But i don't limit it to that, travelling, nipping into shops, etc.

I love Arizonas. I wear the sheepskin ones as slippers.

Dora26 · 21/02/2020 23:48

Have really pale skin and got the black with stone pattern - LOVE them and get costant compliments

I wear Madrid's and love buying a new colour. Buy the bronze and wear with pride.
