Tell your toes it’s time to party, because sandal weather is here and not one but two pairs of Birkenstocks are on sale at Amazon. Ok, they’re not actual Birkenstocks, but they’re pretty identical in both looks and comfort. One pair comes in the style of the classic Birkenstock Arizona, while the other is a doppelganger for the Birkenstock Mayari — and both are beloved by a combined 99,000 customers who gave the Cushionaire-brand shoes a five-star rating.
Best of all, each pair is 40 percent off in multiple colors and rings in at just $30 each.
For those who aren’t so familiar, Birkenstocks are famously pricey — about $110 to $160 depending on the style. And while that may be a worthy investment for devotees of the brand, Amazon’s knockoffs are so real deal it makes you wonder whether there’s a point when you can spend a fraction of the price. You could conceivable buy a brand new pair of Cushionaires every summer for four to five years and spend the same amount.
But don’t just take it from us — here’s a look at these top-rated shoes along with testaments from customers who’ve walked a mile (or five to eight miles every single day) in the Cushionaire sandals that are giving Birks a massive run for their money.
CUSHIONAIRE Lane Cork Footbed Sandal With +Comfort
These Cushionaire sandals are virtually indistinguishable form the Birkenstock Arizona, arguably the brand’s most timeless style. They’ve earned every one of their 44,000 five-star ratings, too. In vegan leather and vegan suede options, they have the same silhouette, the same buckles and the same cork footbed that molds to your sole and makes these sandals an icon of all-day walking. Available in half sizes and wide widths, these are comfort MVPs for pretty much anyone.
One thrilled reviewer had this to say about the CUSHIONAIRE Lane Cork Footbed Sandal: “I love these shoes, they are LITERALLY so comfortable, I’ll never go back to regular flip flops. Cant believe I almost forked out for Birkenstocks. I’ve worn them everyday since I got them a couple months ago and they’re so comfy- the heels HAVE worn down a bit in the back but it’s not that noticeable, and not worth spending 6x the amount for Birks. Love these. Have to keep telling my teenage kids off for stealing them.”
CUSHIONAIRE Luna Cork Footbed Sandal With +Comfort
Birkenstock Mayari sandals put a bit of a twist on the classic design with criss-crossing straps of varying widths, and so do the CUSHIONAIRE Luna Cork Footbed Sandals, an absolute Mayari twin. Genuine suede insoles and a cork footbed team up to make these shoes heaven to stroll around in, and the upper comes in faux leather and faux suede options. EVA outsoles give them incredible traction, too.
“More comfortable than Birks!” one of more than 55,000 five-star reviewers boldly declared of the Luna sandals. “As someone who owns multiple pairs of Birks, these sandals are absolutely up to expectations of real Birks! Omg they feel amazing. They are nice and padded! They are so adorable too! Great quality.”
