QUOTE(allvin @ Jan 12 2017, 10:37 PM) durable mer? I tot some /k expert say need maintenance. Cannot kena water. Some even say due to our hot weather, not gam. Need apply what oil to make the wooden won't crack bla bla bla... Extremely durable. It's not water proof. And most expensive shoes are not. Hot weather wise is also non-relevant. Don't forget, there are few months of summer all over the world. And the heat can be higher than Malaysia. Oil application, I haven't done it, so no comment on that one. It might help applying. But I had mine for 4 years and counting. Love it.

Yes, it is very durable. My first pair i wore it for 4+ years and the tread still got 75%. Now my 2nd pair already near 2 years. At first u will feel uncomfortable and a bit of hotness due to the cork, but after awhile it will be very comfortable and you wont go for other type of slippers. Trust me, it worth every penny of it.

QUOTE(asamalikum @ Jan 12 2017, 11:21 PM) Judging by all above ignorant negative comments, how many of you really owns a genuine pair remains to the question. Sour grapes. If u don't understand and can't afford the high price for such sandals, suggest u to dig some research before making a fool out of yourself. Regarding the "this shoes meant for indoor" comment, I find it hilarious. No European slippers or sandals are specially made for indoor or outdoor purpose. Just wear it whenever and whenever u like. Birkenstock comfort emphasize on arch. It is design to fit perfectly on your feet. Not for cushioning purpose. I own them and I don't like em. A little self-righteous tonight, aren't we? Silakan meninggal.

QUOTE(scottyvstheworld @ Jan 12 2017, 10:45 PM) Are you serious or what? Must take it off and go shoeless when raining??? Rm200++ and must do that? People say every part can be repaired so scared of what??? Serious, I saw it with my own eyes and I have the same thought as you. QUOTE(Winning11 @ Jan 12 2017, 10:46 PM) Tahan 5 years? Wow. The 'bunga' on the slipper still there after 5 years? Around 30% except the top and bottom tend to worn out faster.

Bought my first and last pair in sg. Cost me 100SGD. In 4 months period the strap came off. Durable my ass. Always fell my feet dirty after wear em. Then heard people say cannot kena water also, so troublesome. I threw it away and will never buy another pair again.

Usually the sole tanggal from the cork base. But ours bought in Europe, dunno if same applies to those bought here.
Honestly not worth it la. Long lasting also how many pairs of slipper you can buy for that price? Slippers are not meant for you to give a fuck. With these you scared they get dirty la, cannot go hiking la, cannot leave at masjid la. Passing fad, like crocs.
