As the battle of the summer sandal wages on – a contest in which feet are the obvious winner so far – Birkenstock introduces a new, lightweight version of its classic Arizona model.
Made of plastic and weighing just 130 grams, the white version is almost sterile in appearance (and wipe clean, burrito/bolognaise/curry fans), providing a modern alternative to the more traditional cork and suede.
As holiday footwear goes, the ‘new super light sandal’ has the qualities to go far – being comfortable in front of pools and beaches alike – a feat unlikely to ever be reached by simply going sockless in your leather lace ups.
