I’ve had several pairs. My first were hunter green, and I absolutely adored them. Then burgundy. Then I got a waterproof pair two sizes too large (ego at work … I figured my feet would never stop growing). From there, it was blue-burgundy-blue. I picked up several pairs during Covid for $30 apiece off AliExpress, and after running the first pair into the ground (quite literally; the heel is gone on the right one), I’m now rocking sand straps. I’ve still got an EVA pair for when it floods, but I much prefer suede.
Birkenstock Arizonas. Been living in them since 1993, and I hate having my feet enclosed. The only shoe size I know is 43.
Hard to argue with a classic.
How many times have you replaced them over the years? What color do you go for when you replace them?
