Years ago I was grounded by  plantar fasciitis.  My foot doctor recommended Birkenstocks.  I live in them now.  I can hike for miles, walk with gladness, and dance, get down and really dance, for hours.

Don't get these shoes wet.  The cork is much softer if you don't get them wet.  I use different shoes in the rain or when I go in the ocean. (I live in Hawaii).  The Birkenstock Rockford boots are waterproof and I use them when I have to travel to cold climates in the winter, and to take hikes anywhere.  Birkenstocks have transformed my life.  Plantar Fasciitis is a pain.  I am grateful for these shoes.

I size them at the local Birky store and order them for far less here.  I still patronize the local Birkenstock store when I  get new soles etc.
