here's a pic of the style...

I like the narrower straps; I have a coouple of pairs with chunkier straps. I suspect the missing colour option in the drop down box is the orange shown in this photo but I'm thinking of the purple. :51:

Very tempted by the sounds of the purple ones! may have to wait til I see them before I make a decision :1:

My goodness the Birkenstock lady looks a whole lot better with her hair short. I didn't recognise her at first.

 

[queenie]

yes she does look about 100% better,always thought she looked a bit old fashioned before! she looks great now.havent bought these but they are very nice,have to start being good now before my hols and have quite a lot of pairs lurking in the wardrobe too!!

 

[Lizzie]

I agree her hair is much better at 1st glance I thought it was a new presenter! couldn't resist the purple ones, I just hope there isn't another OTO tonite at 9! :54:

The first lot of OTO sandals are still at the special price, so I've just ordered the purple pair. I've also gone for the Molina sandal in patent white - I do have the Ibiza two-strap sandals in white, but I got them wet and didn't dry them off, so the buckles went a bit rusty. I use them for the beach, round the pool, etc. so thought it would be good to get a new white pair - and I have the Molina in pink so know they are comfortable.:1:

I love the Panther oto - it is so lovely and has broken my rule of not buying any more!!

They are my 7th pair, but I think someone said last night that they have 39 pairs?

I've never bought birkenstock sandles before. I have a really really narrow foot, do you think they would suit me? I know the Birkenstock lady said the toe post sandles are wider/widest of the sandles. She said the others are narrower.

I would definately give them a go! they are correct the toeposts are the widest of the footbeds and I thinkg QVC only stock the narrower option. If you go with some with straps you can alter you should be fine. Let us know how you get on. :1:

Thanks Lizzie, can I just ask you which style do you think would be the narrowest (I also just like plain style without florals). A piccy would be lovely or a link please.

I have narrow feet / skinny ankles and they look fine on me (I have some Madrids ... they're quite old) and I wear the normal fit which QVC don't sell cos the toe grip in the narrow one didn't sit under my toes correctly. You can't tell I wear the normal/regular size though cos my feet spread in them (and obviously swell a little in the summer). There's supposed to be room around your foot in the sandal as well ... quite often the models toes appear to be trying to escape over the lip and that's not how to wear them (according to the Birkie site).

I take a 6 1/2 so would a 6 be the best size to go for (that would be a 39)? (I did buy fly flots once as you could adjust the buckles.:hide: I wear them for the garden though).

Are you worried about length or width for the size cos you mentioned adjusting buckles? I'd try and get the length right so that the toe grip and foot arch are in the right place, other wise it will be uncomfy - is there anywhere near you that sells them so you could try them on first? My Madrids have buckles on them to adjust the top - they go down pretty small/tight.
