Birkenstock  Lutry Oiled Leather Clogs - Men's

Sole and upper began separating within 1 month of infrequent wear.

Going to start it at a 4-star with an eye towards updating it after I wear them for a bit. The good: Beautifully made. Strap relatively easy to adjust and really does hold without chafing. Also arrived super-fast from REI! The footbed is well-built (needs a little breaking in but I'm not too worried). The not quite as good: These are WIDE visually (much more clownish than the Boston I own). My wife is calling them "Birken-Crocs." Feels like the use case is ideal for a pair of thicker socks, maybe too wide for bare feet. We'll see.

Official Notice: I have super wide feet and I absolutely love these!! My Fiance calls them my clown shoes because they are wide and do have a bit a "clown look", but when they break in, they normalize a lot more and honestly I couldn't care less either way. When brand new, you do feel the leather crease push hard against the top of your toes/foot pretty hard, but that fades. Crazy comfortable, crazy convenient, and they look like normal shoes when wearing pants which is nice. They are now my "winter" shoes so I used mink oil to seal them up a bit better. I see why some people gave negative reviews, but my feet are happy campers and I will be buying again in a few years (or just getting them resoled).

After about a week of wear, the rivet holding the strap on the shoe broke. Just wore them to and from work. Didn’t wear them that much at all. Very disappointed in the quality of Birks recently.

I bought this two months ago, and the rivet holding the strap on the right clog broke due to metal fatigue. Two months!

True to size, break in required, extremely comfortable and arch supporting.

Had to go up on size in shoe. I have a wide foot and the leather needs to be worked in. I have been walking around the house and the jury is still out on whether it will be the right shoe or not.

These are my first Birkenstocks and I’m so glad I got these! I was looking for a quality house slipper that would last a long time. I was tired of my slippers compressing and getting flat or falling apart after only a few years. I decided to give these clogs a try. These seem very well made with a high quality oiled leather that looks like it will age well and patina. They’re a bit heavy for clogs and can feel like you’re clunking around while walking. But I think that speaks to the durability of these shoes. They do run quite wide and a bit large overall. I notice this particularly if I’m barefoot; socks definitely make them feel more comfortably snug. They were not difficult to break in and now they’re quite comfortable to wear around the house. I’m quite happy I found these and I think they’ll last me a long time as house slippers.

Comfortable and versatile, and easy to break in. Glad to have a clog that I can go on walks in. The shoe is pretty weighty compared to other Birkenstock shoes, and feels a little flat. They’re very easy to “clomp” around in. Very nice build though, feels more quality than the last couple Birkenstocks I’ve bought. They look and feel great, and are definitely gonna be one of my most worn shoes this fall.

Overall good quality leather if taken care of, nice sizing and width, I will say on short part of the strap feels significantly softer and flimsier then the rest of the leather which is probably a processing issue but other then that it’s great
