The Iconic has a sale on footwear at the moment and found these Birkenstocks pretty cheap. Normal retail is $241 for the oiled leather with the soft food bed (more comfortable than the regular base I think. Works with the $20 off new user code posted earlier this year even with a pre-existing account I already had.
Sizes EU 36, 37, 38, 39 available at time of posting.
If buying 2 pairs, can use the $50 off $250 spend to get it even cheaper.
$20 off for the referee ($99 minimum spend), and $20 credit for the referrer.
Got these to wear at home.
Yes they are decent, but no way in hell they're $200 retail quality, maybe $100 standard price.
Would not cop with this price ever.
Where do you get leather ones for $100? Keen to try some others if there's some you recommend.
Sorry - no way they're WORTH $200. They should be priced at $100 STANDARD retail.
I've switched to slides for indoor. Outdoor i wear sneakers. My company works w/ NB and so i got a code for 20-25% off anything on their official website (full price only - no US/UK made) <;)
Would you say someone with flat feet could walk in these all day while travelling?
the sole is quite hard, not sure if that helps? They're comfortable but not for all day walking imo.
Thanks, it seems near impossible to find a sandal that's not going to destroy me haha
@neo: Unfortunate. If someone has any ideas and is a product designer, i can set you up with a factory anywhere in China and arrange samples / start it up. Help a fellow ozbargainer (Neo).
@neo: I am flat too but i thought the idea is we need to wear something with high arch regardless of how painful our feet will be.
@CyberMurning: Exactly!
Every one I have found that has arch in it has a terrible sole that's synthetic = yuck
No they do not have arch support so do not help with flat feet and you cannot put inserts into sandals
@shaidas
Can you recommend a good one for people with flat feet? Or maybe a good insole?
@CyberMurning: Nah sorry..I bought a Birkenstock ..did not work.. hence my comment … I don't think arch support is a priority in the sandal and the flip flop world. I am yet to find one.. if you do please share..I must qualify my statement.. I have custom made arch supports for shoes without which I cannot run..walking at normal pace is not that much of a probllem depending on how much I walk.. your situation may vary.
pretty fancy for just house shoes
I just wear sheepskin slippers in winter and slides in summer
RRP $241 for sandals?!
cheaper than rm williams craftsman boots …$450.
That's insane!
Got this from kogan/catch when on special for $89-99. And they often do the specials just waif.
