  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

A Great Pair of Sandals

I hate flip flops. I always wear "jesus sandals" in the summer. Never had a pair that molded to my fee though, seem pretty cool.

I've had to send mine back to get resoled once. Like a brand new sandal!

:angerFU: Bastid!!! :rofl: I'm like, when did he lose his sense?

What was damage to get yours resoled? Can any shoe guy do that or does it go to Berk? Have thrown out and bought new in the past.

I have the same problem as fredneck. I used to love them as a kid when they fit me, though. Sorta like a cross between a sneaker and a sandle that still looked like a sandle.

I sent them out to someone. I think it was abour 30-35. The great part is that you don't have to break them in again. I have the card around here somewhere. I'll see if I can dig it up.

No worries. I'll check a couple shops around here. I remember someone saying they could be resoled (recorked is probably more acurate) but always thought it was much more $$$$. Thanks Tom.

I wear Teva's now. It's hard for me to find Birks that fit my size 14 feet. I'm a freak.

You can order them Directly from Birk in Germany.... I have had to, I wear a 15.... same price as in stores so not that big of a deal

I prefer Tevas and Dr. Martins
Dr. Martins are so damn heavy. I used to have some Dr. Martin sandals and it felt like I had 5lb. weights strapped to my feet.
