12 Sandals Like Birkenstocks, At Every Price Point

Since first coming into existence a half-century ago, Birkenstocks have become the official casual shoe of the style set. Starting out as a bohemian staple in the '70s, the shoe has taken nearly every form since — acting as the perfect accomplice to demure and dad-core ensembles alike. The original shoe has been shopped and styled every which way at this point (celebrities with Birkenstocks love to keep them in rotation) — so, if you're looking for a pair of sandals like Birkenstocks that come with a few distinct updates, you're in luck. There are many similar, sporty pairs that make getting the low-profile silhouette easier than ever, no matter what your budget is.

Few off-duty shoes are this widely accepted in the court of high-fashion, so grabbing a pair of Birkenstock-like sandals that you can lean on in every circumstance is encouraged. Whether you're looking for an unfussy pair to slip on with ankle socks for some quick errands, or to pack for a weekend trip at a friend's lake house, there's something for everyone's personal style. Take, for example, FENDI's buckled slides, which are hand-painted in Italy with the brand's signature monogram. Or, for a more heavy-duty pair, Dr. Martens' Myles Brando leather slides offer a platform sole and its signature, mustard-hued stitching.

No matter what you're after, continue ahead for the full round-up.
