For those that have EVA models, how do you find the comfort and sizing? Thinking of getting these for summer....

These are the BEST bc you can get them wet! I love them for trips to the beach or lake, or just every day. I think they run a bit large, so I size a size down vs. what birkenstock suggests you buy. I am a true size 8 and wear a 39 in the cork version but a 38 in the EVAs

Thank you! I was able to track down a pair at a local store and decided to get the olive....more neutral to match everything in my wardrobe. Love them! (Tho I understand the poster who said they “squeak” while walking).

LOVE the pink toes! Inspiring me to buy the green now. My husband has the same black ones I do and I always feel a bit silly when we are both wearing them :P

You wasted no time getting them hahaha! Love the olive/army green! One of my favourite colours :love:

I have a pair of Arizona EVA in white that's lasted me forever. It's been to several countries and many different adventures with me. Literally indestructible! Also have a pair in black, single strap style which is also good but not as secured on the feet so I mostly wear them when I'm just walking around in the city.

Both are so cute with jeans, shorts and dresses even! Thinking of getting a pair of Teva but we'll save that for a differen thread :biggrin:

If you like the look of Tevas, have you seen Suicoke? I just started a thread on them and modelled the new pair I got. Loving this this chunky sport sandal trend!

Ooooo I know that Suicoke alright lol. Call me frugal but I can't wrap my head around spending 3 bills on sporty sandals and they don't even have any leather on them! LOL

My dream pair is the Loeffler Randall Maisie in Leopard but again, can't justify it :no: maybe the old me would've? :shrugs: haha

Yeah, my DH was a bit shocked at the price of the Suicokes...tho, the pair I got wasn’t bad ($200 Cdn, like $160 US) compared to some of their styles. I just loved the color-blocking on them. Of course DH also thinks $60 Cdn is too much for plastic Birks...he opened the box and said “I hope these were only 50 cents”:lol: Coming from the fellow who only buys Croc flip-flops on sale! But it’s all better than $1000 Louboutins!

Only if we can buy anything for 50cents still eh lol (fellow Canadian here ;)). If the LR Maisie ones I like were made out of EVA I might be able to justify buying them funny enough...considering how the material is waterproof, easy to clean and indestructible! My cost-per-wear would be amazing haha! Since the upper is fabric, I worry once they get dirty I won't be able to get the stain out so it's a no no for now :sad:. The Bay's own brand, Designer Lab, has some cute inexpensive ones tho so maybe I'll look into that but do I reeeeaaaalllly need another pair of sandals...:thinking::P
 
Thank you @l.ch. ! Since this thread is about chic ways to wear Birks, thought I’d post my OOTD. I’m far too old to show midriff but still want to enjoy the crop top trend so got high-waist wide-leg jeans and cropped hoodie from Aritzia. Goes great with the Arizona sandals....ready for spring!
