Joanna's Shoes #128

Ric Owens Birkenstocks

Weird, Furry and Functional!  Great adjectives for shoes as far as I am concerned.

Ric Owens has a strong aesthetic that I have admired and splurged on for many years, so when I saw the Birkenstocks that he designed, I knew they were coming home with me.

You cannot beat the comfort, and the long calf hair adds that subversive edge that Ric is known for, and that I am drawn to.

The first pair of Birkenstock-style sandals I bought 15 years ago were from Christian Dior. Since then, I have added 5 actual Birkenstocks to my shoe collection.  I consider them a modern classic that fits easily into my lifestyle.  Keep em’ coming!
