I love these.  I bought this pair with some others.  I have traditionally worn the regular birkenstock or the others made in the birkenstock family.  I got these to wear when the ground is wet, and I didn't want to get the cork wet.  I have worn these out on wet grass and all over the place.  I've gotten complements.  I had also planned to take them on a cruise.  After ordering my first group I ordered additional pairs.  I like them, and the price is fantastic. Thinking of buying a few more pairs.
