We first started talking about Birkenstocks as a fashion-crowd thing back in the Summer, and then the Spring 2014 shows rolled around and it seemed like it was officially, without a doubt going to happen. While we're still stuck in the middle of Winter — and wearing the requisite boots and sensible closed-toe shoes — we've already started thinking about the shoes we're excited to buy for Spring. And top on our list? Yep, the Birkenstock-inspired pool slide. See all the ones we've been eyeing here.
Steve Madden Brigad Studded Slide Sandals
A classic black pair ($100) stands out thanks to a trim of studs.
Isabel Marant Holden Leather Slides
The Isabel Marant touch of cool isn't limited just to booties. These soft, padded leather slip-ons ($510) make it obvious that her touch extends to summertime, too.
Kenzo Purple-Printed Triple Strap Sandals
As if the Birkenstock needed another entry into the arts and craft department, Kenzo's pair ($295) was splashed with an abstract print.
Zara Double Strap Black Sandals
The sandal is at its minimalist best when done simple, chic, and solid black ($60).
Givenchy Floral Print Double-Strap Flat Sandals
The pretty purple and pink blossoms on these Givenchy slides ($795) make the chunky shape more than appealing to the typically stiletto-clad feminine set.
Ancient Greek Thais Calf-Hair Sandals
The quickest way to add some city-smart sophistication to the hippie staple? Via calf hair, like this Ancient Greek pair ($270).
Giambattista Valli Studded Black Leather Flat Sandals
The large round studs on this pair ($834) make it obvious: these aren't your grandmother's sandals.
