Can I wear these as a pasty white boi or will everyone laugh at me? They look comfy and the flip flops I normally wear casually in hot weather look boring and aren't very comfortable.
>>18750168They are so ubiquitous, no one even sees them.If you get ones that match your skin tone, it's invisible pretty much.
>>18750168>Can I?Fashion is confidence, which you don't have.
it's the official sandal of pasty white bois imho.like it's either birks or slides.
also wtf is "birkibuc"? Sounds like a way for them to cheap out by not using actual leather (since the Birkibuc versions are all like ~$25 cheaper than the leather ones).>>18750174Do I really want to match my skin tone? This is probably the only "leather" one on their site that's even close but it's specifically suede.>>18750190well a key part of it is I haven't gone anywhere that sells them to even try them on. I just want to know if it's a fool's errand before bothering because nothing close to me sells them (and I hate ordering clothing sight-unseen online).
>>18750204Maybe don't go that light because it's feminine, but if you're pale go with sand or light tan, not with a black that would clash.
>>18750174The resurgence of Birkenstocks, and their subsequent acceptance as “fashionable,” is probably one of the worst things to have happened in the 21st century
>>18750198this
>>18750168literally the offical footwear of pasty white boys

>>18750791>>18750792>>18750790I don't think I'd classify any of these guys as "pasty white boys". I've been mistaken as albino on a number of occasions growing up.
>>18750837Post your white ghost feet
>>18750871n-no thanks mister
They are comfortable. You must shave your legs with sandals. Nobody wants to see a monkey is strappy shoes.
I say this in every Birkenstock thread, and I'll say it again. Their quality is trash now, has been for years ever since they were bought by private equity. My Arizonas I purchased in 2020 are still going strong. A brand new pair I doubt would last a year of consistent use. If you enjoy being raped by all means get those birks, otherwise get Stegmanns if you want something that will hold up better.
>>18750883>private equity buys a thing you like
birks are worn by everyone, from kids to florida dads to office karens to the japanese guy in college wearing a skirt, literally the least offensive or interesting sandals there are
>>18750872Do they look like this?Or are they whiter?
>>18750999That's fairly close.>>18750883I've read this before recently, which worries me. I guess what I'm looking for is a combination of open-toed but relatively secure on your foot, comfortable, solid build quality. Does Stegmanns make anything for men other than clogs?
>>18750168It’s actually perfect for you believe it or not. It’s for yt boys like us.
>>18750168Birks are shit now that private equity owns the company. Thankfully, there are alternatives.

>>18751747Sorry, anon. Gonna gatekeep this one.
>>18752042Good, keep it close to your heart buddy im sure its the most important thing in your thoughts right now.
>>18752042Are you trying to feet mog us? Is this what life is about?
>>18752042that's fucked up anon
>>18752099I don't care about mogging. I care about supporting small businesses making quality products. As soon as normies make them popular, in come the bankers, the hedge funds, and the "investors" to ruin them.
>>18752643>I don't care about mogging.It's a mog-or-be-mogged world out there.
>>18752643That makes no sense. They can always choose not to sell. Seems like you're being selfish and would rather keep them to yourself rather than see them succeed.
>>18750883>>18752643They are already milking the cow with Birkenstock nail polish.
>>18753007>They can always choose not to sell. In most cases, the owners decide to sell because the buyers make extremely lucrative offers.>Seems like you're being selfish and would rather keep them to yourself rather than see them succeed.I prefer if the small business finds stability and success among its small and loyal customer base than expand too quickly and become enshittified, yes.
>>18753104There you go.
>>18752042>>18752643>I want to support small businesses by never telling anyone about their productit's just a short skip-and-a-hop from "posted on my tibetan glassblowing forum" to "bought and ruined by private equity".
