Great idea! Well in theory at least!August 1, 2008 7thinice(bracknell, berkshire United Kingdom) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Hi,
Firstly let me just say they are nice looking shoes. However, the design does not work.
The interlinks which are supposed to allow you to wear this particular style in 3 different ways do not clip together. (Please note mine could be faulty) This would render it impossible for me to where them as I would have liked.
I would still like to bring your attention though to what I consider to be a fatal flaw. Metal which is not covered and has full contact with top of toes (above toe post) and will undoubtedly cause excessive friction when feet are hot. I read a review for these which has a statement from a buyer who said her foot was red raw after wearing. I was not sure how this could happen until receiving mine today but I guarantee the metal would have done this.
Sadly mine are going straight back for refund. (Not Amazons fault though)
Please do not let this put you off Birkenstock as they have plenty of ranges to choose from and I do have a pair which are comfortable and I have only owned them 2 days. Tina x
Birkis Tofino Womens BlackAugust 5, 2008 C. Trotter(Norwich Norfolk UK) Hi there, I have just purchased a pair of black Birkis Tofino style and love them to bits! I have had several pairs of Birkis and are convinced they are the best shoes ever. I ignored the review about how the metal disc on toe post gets hot(all my Birkis have these and have never been a problem) and that the attatchments don't fasten properly (obviously a faulty pair), my ones are fine. These really are lovely shoes, go on treat yourself!
