Spring is the perfect time for new Birkenstocks
Although the summer is the best time to bare your feet, spring is when you actually want to buy sandals. Why? The longer you wait, the greater the risk that the pair you want most will go out of stock.
Luckily, Birkenstock understands this. Right now, the company is offering amazing footwear, such as the Papillio by Birkenstock Arizona Platform Vegan Sandals and the Birkenstock Gizeh Big Buckle Canvas Sandals.

Why Birkenstock sandals are so popular
Fashion can be synonymous with discomfort. Think tight jeans, high heels, buttoned collars and other stylish apparel. However, this is not the case with Birkenstock sandals. This iconic footwear has not only become a fashion statement made by celebrities, such as Kendall Jenner, Emma Roberts and Gigi Hadid, but the sandals are remarkably comfortable.
In fact, many people (including some podiatrists) claim Birkenstock sandals might even be good for your feet. Besides the roomy toe box and arch support, this footwear features a deep heel cup. That design helps stabilize the foot and staves off potential problems, such as flat feet. The design also distributes the wearer’s body weight evenly to make for a more comfortable experience. Also, the cork footbed provides exceptional shock absorption, and it helps control the moisture that can create a breeding ground for bacteria. And controlled bacteria means reduced foot odor.
In short, Birkenstocks are so popular because they are fashionable and comfortable, to the point of actually being good for your feet.
How to pull off sandals in the spring
Once you get that perfect pair of Birkenstock sandals (at such an enviable price), don’t wait to wear them just because it’s not officially summer yet. You can wear your Birkenstock sandals even if it’s early spring. The key is keeping the rest of your body warm with a fashionable ensemble.
That’s right, your feet can be stylishly exposed in moderately chilly weather, if you refrain from wearing other summery clothing: no shorts, bikini tops, bathing suits, tank tops, etc.
Instead, focus on keeping covered. Consider a maxi dress, something white or neutral, that keeps you covered and warm. Another option is a stylish jumpsuit — not something that resembles pajamas — with a smart-looking handbag. If you want to try a little more casual, jeans, a fun top and your brand new Birkenstocks create an upbeat seasonal vibe that is fashionable, fun and relaxed. If you follow these simple guidelines, you can look great in your new sandals as soon as they arrive at your doorstep.
