don't want to wear Birkenstocks this summer want something more glam/retro can you help?

[minxofmancunia]

I have one pair of pink glads which I like and some black havainas for slumming about but wanted someother sandally type thingies as well that need to be comfy as permanently with pram/sling.

Can anyone help?

Just can't do birkies again this summer as despite having 3 pairs they're like a uniform round here and EVERYONE at work wears them (CAMHS) so just too health and social care professional for me!

I love these; they are amazingly comfortable ad I keep recommending them.

really tether? they look horrible [hopelessly out of touch]

ew at those lace up snakeskin things [boak]

sorry tether

those sandals are foul

sorry teather thanks for your link but I don't like them either!

Any other ideas anyone?

I am stuck in a shoe style rut generally have born boots in winter/birkenstocks in summer for several years and apart from several pairs of ridiculously impractical high heels I have little else in my warbrobe.

Just don't want to do social worker chic anymore! (apols to all birkenstock wearers out there!)

thank god its not just me (sorry tether) i thought i had prematurely entered extreme gimmerhood

Am bumping for you as you sound just like me! Uggs in winter, birkies and converse in summer, two pairs of heels for nights out and thats it! Would love to hear other suggestions for fab but comfy footwear for summer

They are divine and you're all wrong

I'm taking my ball and going home.

I have these www.lkbennett.com/shoes/sandals/FSDESERT429LEATHER

They are rather pricey (mine were a gift) but very comfortable.

tether it's ok

i posted soem i bought recently

nobody liked
but I know that I'm RIGHT

I expect I will be ridiculed for suggesting Boden, but they do have some comfy looking sandles.

What about these? www.boden.co.uk/en-GB/Womens-Shoes/Sandals/AR422/Womens-Corsage-Sandals.html?NavGroupID=134

these?

they look really practical, but they also look like they'd be pretty on your feet too.... actually, clarks have SOME really nice retro type shoes...look in the originals section on the site.

MamaGlee, I'm with you! (As long as they weren't Birkenstocks)

these boden ones are nice but too flat for me

Good lord, having seen the Clarks and Boden ones, I can see I'm on the wrong thread! My eyes!

As you were.

some lovely campers this season

How about Scholl for retro?
I like the buckles on these, or are they too birky for you?

I saw a Birkenstock shop in Hong Kong and they were amazing.....not all Birkenstocks, iyswim!

pmsl @ the scholl take on glamour orthopedic s&m anyone?

was teh black ones in this link

I HATE EVERY SINGLE SANDAL LINKED TO ON TIHS THREAD
apart from my own

mamag, those sandals are lovely if youwant to look like the evil on in blake's 7

I like some in that link MamaG. Which are yours?

And how can you hate my LK Bennett ones????? They are so puurrrdy.

BO, great name for those sandals too......I'd love to wear a pair of Fannys on my feet!

i'm with tether. i don't want to wear birks either as they make my feet look big but everything else will shred my feet :-(
