Chuckles spewed forth when we glimpsed a desperately panting headline -on the latest print Vogue ..not because funny gal Amy Schumer was on the cover...but because of the stiletto magical thinking...
Because except for a fancy soirée-or a night out-or even most likely, stashing a pair under a desk at work in an office...it's becoming a flattish (or wedge) fashion comfort world -footwise for ladies.It's hard to sacrifice that good feeling one gets from wearing comfy shoes...especially when stylish eyeballs have adjusted to what is on trend these days. PLUS everyone seems to dress more casually for just about everything-including sophisticated urban settings--- except for maybe maybe a day in court.
BIRKENSTOCK has been riding the tidal wave of popularity for good reason-it's legendary (230 years in the making) contoured footbed that coddles and supports the various spots of feet-with that comfort molding cork/latex blend and 2 layers of jute to whisk away moisture...has been much copied, somewhat---but never quite as well.
Even stylistically the signature Arizona sandal has some higher priced labels aping the look. But there is nothing like the original. AND consumers know.

Really-even a quick glimpse of this GIF-obvs which sandal is the all day -shock absorbing on concrete sidewalk -worthy one.
