what's happened to Birkenstock?

[dynamic]

Birkenstock were the staple items of summer past - they are no longer on the brand site - does anyone know if they have gone for good?

 

[BusyLizzie]

If you type Birkenstocks in the 'search' box it comes up with loads......many at "last clicks" prices.

 

[Sazza]

They have added in a new section "Shoes & Handbags" so Birkenstocks will be in that section not the Fashion section.

 

[Rentochops]

they had quite a few new ones on Spring 'fashion' Day....

Plus a mention of doing both width fittings.

How daft not to mention on the web site the different width fittings.

I always get mine in TK Maxx - a LOT cheaper than QVC :happy:

I do think birkenstock have dwindled IMO in the last couple of years on QVc.

There was a time where there were wall to wall shows and a good amount of TSV's.

As I remember TSV's were few and far between last year.

:wonder:Am intrigued by the fact that they don't sell 1/2 sizes on Q, however, every time I go to an outlet shop there are loads of size 7.5 to be had.
Presumably all returns from those who were sold them as a Size 8???

I got caught like that with QVC birkenstocks - made me quite cross. Wish QVC would give out the Continental size (41 etc) on their shoes to stop the confusion.

the tk max birkis are attatched differently to normal birkis.

I don't watch Birkenstock shows often because I don't like them ... oddly they kill my feet but I've just seen Debbie F raving about a £50 pair that were leather. Aren't they pretty much all leather? At £40+ they flipping well ought to be!

 

[Brissles]

No, I think a lot of them are made from Nubuck - leather thats found 'between the layers of leather' if you can make that out !

 

[Akimbo]

Most of them a "birkoflor" or something like that, a man-nade fibre. Only a few are real leather.

i can't wear them either. find them hard as a rock and they rub my feet. tried once, never again. not to mention the fact they're ugly imho.

 

[Greyhoundgirl]

I love my birkies, but one pair (£20 from TJHughes) is sufficient.

I have a Kipling bag, I also ditched the monkey, it's on my 10 year old's book bag which makes much more sense.

I think the clothing on QVC is shockingly overpriced and can't believe they sell any!

 

[Greyhoundgirl]

And somehow I replied to the wrong thread. Doh!
