Boston Genuine Shearling Clog

If it works, why change it? One of the few wide-shoe option for really square feet was acquired by new owners who’s marketing tactics cater not to comfort and healthy feet, but money and fashion. The last has been altered making it narrower, more slanted and uncomfortable as well as the materials. No issue with new or more colors or textures for the top but keep the leather and the toe box height! What a pity. I’ve worn BK since the 80’s before they became fashionable. The “shearling” is thinner, not cushiony and soft. BK!! Can you keep something for those of us who don’t have canoe-shaped feet???

Just came in the .mail and at 76 yo, with old feet, lol, these Birks were perfect. I slipped them on the way to the doctor's office, and now I'm wearing them as house slippers. Worth the $$$.

I received a different style of Birkenstocks (the unlined ones) and decided to exchange them for the shearling version, which I was happy to see back in stock! These are very comfortable, cozy, and stylish, but they are more snug, due to the lining and the fact that I wear them with socks. For reference, I am a true size 9M in shoes. In the unlined Birkenstock Boston, my size is 41, but in the shearling model, I needed a size 42!

My usual shoe size is a women’s 9M (not wide). In regular (not lined) Birkenstock Boston clog, I take a size 41, which correlates to a women’s size 10. In these shearling lined clogs, the size 41 was way too snug, so I had to size up to a 42, which correlates to women’s size 11. Please note that I do wear socks with these.

"Shearling comes from young lambs and has the leather and wool attached, offering superior softness and warmth." I did not realize this when I bought these shoes. I guess I though that shearling could be manufactured. They are very comfortable but I can't wear something from a young lamb.

My second pair- I wear them as slippers. I need a proper footbed now to combat foot pain and Berks do the trick. Love the shearling lining!!!!
