Shoe Review: Birkenstock Gizeh sandals

I don't really think the weather can make up it's mind at the moment. First it's sunny, then it's monsooning, then it's completely freezing. It's meant to be August! So with schizophrenic weather in mind, i'm really trying to enjoy the last few summer days before it goes all miserable and grey for the rest of the year.

Admission time: I've always been a Birkenstocks fan, I'm half German (they are my heritage after all) and I grew up with them, and even though there are prettier sandals out there, with more bells and whistles, I still always default back to my Birks.



These are my Birkenstock of choice, metallic silver Gizeh toeposts. I'm usually not the biggest fan of toepost sandals, but unlike others these don't rub, because what Birkenstock is synonymous with is comfort. And these are so comfy. I had a white pair previously that I lived in when I was in Thailand, as they support your arches and, if you have high arches like me, makes walking in sandals much easier.

Birkenstock shoes are still my go to comfy summer flat, and although you might not get to wear them for much longer this summer, they'll last you years. And when you finally chuck them away, i'll bet you'll get a new pair!

The Gizeh style, my personal fave, comes in black, brown, white and metallic silver, are about £39.99 and I would thoroughly recommend them.
