Birkenstocks - what colour?

14 replies

Garlicbutteredbread · 18/11/2023 18:19

I've been waiting for Birkenstocks to go on sale and now they are!

Now need suggestion on colours please. I'm very pale pasty and usually wear darker colours, even in summer.

What colour should I go for?

Which style? I have Mocca Bostons, white Arizonas, and a denim blue sneaker
I am pale , freckly , red hair. The blue are probably the most useful.

I buy a pair of silver Gizeh every year and wear them to death as they go with everything

My favourites are my navy blue ones, Silver also good but not sure that works with your skin tone. I have tan ones too which go with everything and are a nice neutral.

I have a few pairs. My faves are my navy and gold pairs. Go with everything. They has a white and gold snakeskin a few years ago and they were amazing

I have a black pair and white pair of Arizonas that I replace every time they wear out then but one other pair as needed in a bright colour - current pair are orange.

Between that selection I am covered for anything.

I have a pair of lace ups in Sandcastle. Best shoes ever!

When I looked at the sale on the Birkenstock website, there weren’t loads of options in my size. Have just ordered some pale pink Gizehs and a pair of trainers which I’ve never tried. My fave colours have been a warm brown, and navy. I had a pair of bright blue ones this summer but they clashed with various things.

Any birkies are good birkies!
I have a pair Boston clogs in oiled brown leather… they are great trans-seasonally and have worn them with socks. They are many years old and look like new
Currently ( summer here) I am wearing a pale suede Kyoto… I feel quite bohemian in them!
Mostly I wear Arizonas… I have too many pairs 😂
I wish they would do a bright red!
Leather is much better lasting than other materials.

They are on sale at Office shoes and Very.

I've gone for a black matte pair of Arizonas. To be slashed in the wardrobe until the summer now.

Ooo thank you OP I just had a look and bought a pair of Arizonas I really wanted and they sold out just after I bought mine so I'm happy I got in there just in time.

I was looking earlier on the Birkenstock webpage and they have a few on sale there but none that I wanted

I love my suede taupe softbed Arizonas so I just bought them in velvet grey so I know they'll be super comply the second I put them on

Mirrormeback · 19/11/2023 02:31

I wear my current ones just around the house but want a darker pair to wear outside

DD has the oiled leather ones in Black which I always though I wanted but they're not as deliciously comfy as mine so I'm sticking to the same for now to avoid any disappointment

Don't stick them in the wardrobe.

They're so comfy to wear around the house
