The ones with the big toe strap has been life changing for me. I can’t wear any other type of sandal.

I have a question for those of you who wear Birkenstocks.
I have a question for those of you who wear Birkenstocks. Do you like the ones with two straps or three? Does anyone wear the clogs or the ones that separate the big toe?

I have both 2 strap and 3 strap. Mostly a look difference. I have multiple pairs and they usually last me 4-5 years, wearing only in warm weather months. I also like the chaco sandals without the toe loop. Find a store that sells them and try on so you know what size and style. You can sometimes find gently used chacos on poshmark. Usually the birkenstocks footbeds get dirty/sweaty and they mold to your feet so wouldn't recommend buying used ones.
I need ones to hide the ugly bunions , but not sure they have one to suit.
I wear the one that separates the toe and the two straps
Go to the store and try them on. I needed to size down because they run big.
I have 3. Bought 2004 ☺️
I have several pairs. I tried to wear them in July and oh my gosh. My foot and ankle hurt for a few days after. I was only four months out. My PT said only wear sandals that have a back strap until I am a year out. I have two straps, three straps and ones that have the toe strap. I don't find a huge difference with how they feel or stay on my feet. I like that, over time, they form to my foot. If you haven't worn them before, it can take a bit to get used to them.
I wear the 2 strap and the clogs. Love them! I also have the plastic ones for the pool!
The only ones I can wear are the Arizonas (2 straps).
I wear the Arizonas and the Mayaris. The mayaris are my favorite!
same here. I tried on my daughter’s three strap pair. They’re comfortable, but my crooked toe shows too much.
Thanks, everyone.
