BIRKENSTOCK RUBBER SHOES

BIRKENSTOCK RUBBER SHOES
Birkenstock Rubber Shoes
 
These are my most useful shoes at the moment. I got these last year, primarily to use when we went camping. I know that Crocs are very practical shoes but I just cannot bring myself to wear them as I feel like Coco the Clown in my big flappy shoes every time I have worn them.
 
So, as Crocs are out, I was on the hunt for some shoes that were a) waterproof so that I wasn’t walking around in soggy shoes all day b) I could still wear while wearing socks (this rules flip flops out) c) could put on without effort. These seemed to fit the bill and I have not been disappointed. Not only are they very practical they are also extremely comfortable. They are also very handy for slipping on to your feet in a hurry if you have to dash outside, which is something that I quite often have to do, mostly for dog related incidents.
 
Just last night in fact they were most useful. I had fallen asleep on the sofa and waking up in the small hours, I let the dog out for a bit of a sniff, only for her to spot something in the undergrowth and start barking at it. It was a very still night and her barks were resonating around, so I had to dash out to stop her barking before she woke the whole neighbourhood up. However, at this point, having been asleep for a few hours, my contact lenses were still well and truly adhered to my eyeballs and I could not see. I did not want to rush out in bare feet as I did this a few weeks ago in the dark and stepped on a big fat slug which squished between my toes. Thankfully these shoes were close enough to the door for me to slip them on and retrieve The Dog.

My current shoes of choice. I can heartily recommend them. I got mine from Amazon: amzn.to/2GTXuVy
