I've been a long time fan of Birk's. At one point, I had 15 pairs...clogs & sandals. Over the past few years, I've donated some since the soles were worn. Now, when I buy new ones, I'm paying "full freight" & wish the Q would carry them again. They provide great arch support, something most shoes, lack. Great patterns. Love the sandals. Please bring the Birks & Sally Combs back.

Thought you might want to check out HSN.  They carry sandals and other styles.  I have bought a couple of pairs since the Q got rid of them.

Guess, it's the same as it was years & years ago, either you were  afan  of  Birkenstocks  or you  did  not care for them.

 

 Sorry, but they have never appealed to me. I found other shoes that were good for the feet  and were more stylish.

It wasn't QVC's choice. Birkenstock ceased doing business with QVC and Sally Combs years ago. This has been addressed many times.  

Buy your Birkenstocks from Dillard's or a sporting goods store or a local boutique; no S&H. They are my favorite footwear and I prefer to buy locally. I've purchased a few pair of Birkenstocks on-line without ever paying S&H. Look around!

I like Birkenstocks too.  I have a pair on right now.  Actually I wear a pair everyday in the house.  I've gotten my last two pair at Dillards.  Got free shipping on one pair because there was no stock in store but had it on line and got clogs at the store.  Birkenstocks are the most comfortable shoe and I prefer to wear them than any other.  It would be wonderful to see them back on the Q.

I love them too, but I don't really 'need' any since they last forever! I'd still enjoy watching the shows though! Smiley Wink

Re: Bring Back Birkenstock’s

I bought my last two pair from HSN. I've also purchased directly from Birkenstock.

I think I miss the Q's prices the most. I've bought directly from Birkenstock but they are so pricey. No Dillards or Macy's near me. Online is only way I've shopped since last March for everything. 

Surprised B cut the cord with the Q. They sold hundreds of thousands of Birk's.

Re: Bring Back Birkenstock’s

 @Cruzzing  Many of the best manufacturers and products ceased doing business with QVC by choice. There is a reason for that decision: demanding quanties, unusual colors and styles, lower prices and greed. It all takes away from the true brand name and the retailers who are also selling those famous and beloved items.

Frankly, I admire Birkenstock and other top quality brands for walking away from the horrible hours on air, the hassle of working with QVC and their demands to lower prices.

An excellent product does not need QVC to sell exceptionally well.
