Birkenstock is arguably the biggest name in slip-ons and there isn’t a more iconic silhouette than its Boston clog. Expertly crafted in Germany, Bostons feature a contoured cork footbed that forms to the shape of your foot for that much-needed arch support, a deep heel cup and roomy toe-box for added comfort, a lightweight EVA outsole for a cushioned step, and malleable leather uppers that get softer and better with age and wear.
If you’ve been a Heddels reader/listener (check out our Blowout podcast – we did a whole episode dedicated to Bostons), for a while, you’ll know that we love clogs. Forget Dirty Dancing love; that’s child’s play. I’m talking full-on Fifty Shades of Grey love. The Titanic on steroids – the Rose to my Jack. In short, we just can’t get enough. Their versatility and comfort is simply unmatched. If you consider wearing slippers outside socially unacceptable (not me), then Bostons are your best bet. There’s a Boston for every occasion, and Stag Provision’s latest drop brings about a couple of suede colorways that are all kinds of ‘yes’.
If you’re in the market for a pair of low maintenance summer beaters, look no further than Birkenstock’s Bostons.
Available for $140 from Stag Provisions.
