Summer is officially here, and that means you're about to wear sandals pretty much every day.

The Birkenstock footbed used to be exclusive to the brand, but today, you can find something similar on a lot of shoes without the Birkenstock price tag. Now is the time to get affordable sandals, clogs and slippers. We've rounded up some of the best Birkenstock alternatives at a great price so you can experience all the comfort and style while saving money for your next summer trip.
In this article: FITORY Womens Open-Toe Slipper with Cozy Lining, KIDMI Women's Suede Clogs and ODOLY Women's Cork Footbed Slide Sandal
This sandal features a cork footbed almost identical to Birkenstock's, so you know it'll be comfortable all day long. The leather uppers, with two straps and metal buckles, come in 21 colors to match any outfit or style.
Rather than cork and leather, these sandals are made from cushiony ethylene-vinyl acetate foam that feels like you're walking on a cloud. It also means you can get these sandals in a ton of fun colors that traditional Birkenstocks can't offer, but still with the two-straps-and-buckle design you know and love.
If you prefer strappier Birkenstocks, these are the sandals for you. Their cork footbed is almost identical to the real thing, and they feature leather straps that crisscross for a dressier look than Birkenstock's classic slides. They come in 15 colors, all for under $40.
