OH. I agree with @booby about the Toms toe length. I really wanted to like them because in theory canvas sneakers are great, but they looked really dumb on.
I live in Houston, where summer is hotter than hell. So I either wear Havianas or cheap sandals from F21. I have them in a metallic color and a tan color.
These are cute. I worry about arch support, though. But I do like them, and for less than $10, I can certainly give them a try.
Also, thank you for helping and not just laughing at me like the rest of these jackholes.
Toms don't have any arch support so if that is an issue definitely go with the Birks. However out of those two I would go with the Birks anyway. I don't like those Toms.
I have a pair of Dansko sandals that are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn in my life (well, two pairs, actually, I got them in brown and black because I loved them so much). But it looks like they were discontinued. Helpful, I know! But these don't look too bad? Well, I'd wear them anyway.
But I also don't mind Toms or Birks, so take my opinion for what it's worth I thought the Toms ballet flats are much cuter than the original style! I bought a pair on Zulily the other day.
I wear flip flops for 9 months of the year (warm climate). I really like the Reefs with a leather footbed - leather doesn't smell Some styles also have ok arch support.
