So are Birkenstocks really hideous, or do they just look horrible on me? I have seen a few women wear Birkenstock sandals lately and swear that I really like the way they look, and they certainly look comfortable. What do you think? Cool and comfortable, or very effective birth control? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

there are plenty of other decent looking comfortable shoes. Check out Merrells and Eccos. Also Donald Pliner for more stylish looks. [ Reply | More ]

There are some great sandals that are just as comfy...for example look on Zappos...Eden by Stone Fly (the thing type), as well as others in that brand are very comfy have good arch support and good looks (some less than others). Mephisto now has some really cute sandals where the straps are stylish, but the soles are classic Mepisto. My fave comfy but really good looking sandals are calle "Ana-Tech." They are hard to find, but they are very high quality made in America (but not on Zappos). Cute and strappy in different colors, too. [ Reply | More ]

I wear mine eventhough I know they're ugly. I try to imagine that they tell the world that this mom with now saggy boobs (in a great bra, mind you) and a mortgage used to be a sexy hippie on tour with the Dead... Ahhh... the good ol' days... [ Reply | More ]
