How much do Birkenstock Sandals cost in Germany?

[shepaski1987]

They cost $110 USD here in the states. Are they cheaper over there because they are German or are they the same price?

you're an idiot.

You bastard, I finally thought someone had made a reply to my birkenstock thread and was just you.

Strange question but here you go:

They are around 30 to 40 Euros depending on the model

 

[shepaski1987]

That's $51.46 USD so that's over half the price.

jepp

you can buy a lot of them and sell em in the US haha

 

[shindigg]

yeah. but birkenstocks are viewed differently over there. like, when I lived in Switzerland and wore my birkenstock sandels outside, everyone looked at me weird and called them "Hausschuhe" aka "slippers"..

 

[Marcos79]

yes totally agreed!

 

[shepaski1987]

I wear them to school and everywhere else in the states and no one thinks twice. So do they consider all sandals to be slippers or just birkenstocks?

 

[japie99]

dude im sorry but these things are sooo ugly!!!

 

[Dustin.]

they are shoes

A Tip for all the "slippers" wearers outside there:

Don´t wear them with white tennis socks in your "hausschuhe"!

Nearly every girl hates that!
