be your hippie best! these green suede slides with detailed white hand sewn edging are the bomb! to Tommy was a high-end Birkenstock line and these shoes are proof that their products were everything they intended them to be! suede inner lining is a bit worn but there is zero loss of tread except a little on the very backs of the heel... and still cushion and ample arch support and toe grip inside. these are original hardsole Birkenstocks non-slip rubber soles and extra high arches... with some cushioning to the heel and a little cupping to keep your foot in place. I wore these a lot but can no longer do the heel drop due to some back issues and I'm really sad to give these up. just a great shoe, with all the funk and uniqueness a person could want! including a little elastic venting so that no matter how high your arch these will always go on.
