Birkenstock sandals are pretty cool, but I prefer to wear tevas. You can wear them on and off the water, but you can not do that with birkenstock sandals.


true, but birks are more comfortable and tevas are not appropriate for teaching



I can wear both. I guess I am lucky.


can or may?

Yesterday I was at COEX and noticed that there was a big rack of Birkenstock's in the New Balance store. I get a little mixed up in that place so I can't tell you exactly where it was- but it's in there somewhere.

Prices for the Arizona-type sandal were somewhere around 120k and the Boston (clog) was about 150. A little pricey, but I guess that's what they're going for here.

Thank you. I was there yesterday too, but they did not have my size. The cheapest I have found so far is 95,000, but not size 46 yet.

If you have a Korean friend that can help you, check out www.auction.co.kr. It's Korean Ebay. You can find some really good deals, and shipping is 2000-4000. At the main page, I did a search for Birkenstock and got 11 auctions going. There's one auction where you can "buy now" for 25,000.
