where to get birkenstock knockoffs?

[Jmag034]

I'm looking for a pair of leather sandals very similar to the Birkenstock Arizona series. However I don't want to spend $75-$100 on them because i know ill ruin them by the end of summer. any recommendations of where to get a pair?

i wonder if you pony up for the real thing if maybe you wouldn't have them ruined by the end of the summer

sometimes you get what you pay for

Bingo. Why go through two knockoffs when you can go through 1 real pair?

Case and point: I bought a pair of rainbows spring of '06 and my roommate bought a pair of reefs spring of '07. I bought my second pair of rainbows spring of '08 and he bought his second pair of reefs spring of '08.

Just saying that some brands have better quality than others.

Knockoffs are so uncool. I ponied up for real Birks in 1996 and they are still in mint condition. Don't be lazy: If you step in puke, rinse them off and dry them off. Duh.
