If you're looking for a comfortable summer shoe, a pair of Birkenstocks should be at the top of your list.
They're versatile, come in many styles and colors, and are, yes, incredibly comfortable.
When shopping for a pair of Birkenstocks, consider how you plan to wear them: Waterproof styles -- marked by their material, EVA -- are ideal for beach, lake and pool-goers. The "big buckle" styles, like the Madrid Big Buckle sandals, are good day-to-night options you can wear with denim or maxi sundresses, for example. There are wedged and platform Birkenstocks or clog styles for everyday wear.

For example, perhaps a gold buckle is best if you gravitate towards gold jewelry. A shiny patent or oiled leather upper may be your best bet if you're looking for a dressier Birkenstock, whereas a canvas upper lends itself to more casual, summer wear.

"GMA" asked Olivia Boyd, a marketing director, and Caitlin Palumbo, a travel writer and photographer, to try out multiple pairs of Birkenstocks and styles they've inspired.
They raved about the lightweight feel of the EVA sandals, noting they're great for wearing to the pool. The Cushionaires, they noted, have a light, springy footbed that offers support and comfort throughout the day.
Boyd preferred the support and comfort of the Arizona Birkenstocks, but Palumbo appreciated the cushioning of this pair. "They are so comfortable," she said of the Cushionaire shoes. "My feet are not tired at all.
