I like how these are pretty much a Birk knock off while still maintaining high quality, real leather and a better price point! I also really like the design with the braided feature! I purchased the same brand sandals from another retailer but different style first and they didn’t fit right but when I found these I was so happy! I was not disappointed. I have a small baby toe so only downside is the design on the sandals hides them making me look like I have only four toes lol but that’s a small sacrifice considering I really like the design and comfort of these. I live in sandals in the spring and summer so I’m happy!
