We are headed to the nail salon for a fresh pedi because it is officially sandal season. After finding our favorite Birkenstocks out of stock (for, like, the third time), we decided we needed to check out some new brands. Our beloved Birks are usually our go-tos for summertime footwear, Brooks Sneakers and we aren’t saying we’re done with them, we’re just expanding our sandal repertoire with these nine shoes like Birkenstocks.
