Birkenstock trainers

[Wellwhatalovelyday]

Has anyone had a pair of these? I’m looking at the blue suede ones, but since I usually wear Skechers (so comfy) and I’m prone to plantar fasciitis I’m wondering how comfy they are. I always wear Birkenstocks in the summer.

thanks!

I've got a pair of the slip-on trainers and I live in them in the warmer months

Like these, but a different colour https://www.birkenstock.com/gb/oswego-suede-leather%2Ftextile/oswego-canvas-mixedleather-0-rubber-u_1629.html#filters%5BrefinementModelType%5D=%22Loafer%2FSlip%2BOn%22

Thankyou…. I think I’m going to give them a go.

OMG I did not realise that Birkenstock did trainers! Thank you for this info. My Vans are not giving me enough support.

Do they have the contoured footbed, like the sandals have, please?

I mean, that's literally the whole point of Birkenstocks 😆

Take a look at the pics. And the words.

Birkenstick do make shoes that don't have the contoured under-the-toe ridge support, though.

Hmm, I've got a pair of the leather ones - think they're called Bend. I do really like them however, if I wear them for a while, I get really painful knees. Ironically, the sole doesn't seem to bend enough. It's annoying as I thought I'd found the perfect trainer for work.

Ive got Bend Low, love them, so comfortable.

I've got three pairs of the Bend ones and live in them in winter.

Can you tell me, do they have the under-the-toe support ridge, please? I have a Morton's neuroma, and the toe ridge really helps. But I've bought Birkenstocks online before that have a flat footbed where the ridge should be.

I'm not sure if to the ridge but I can feel a lump there! They feel just like the sandals to me.

Worth ordering and sending back if they're no good but they do charge for delivery which I find a cheek given the prices of the bloody things

Thank you vocalfry.
