If you have yet to see the Barbie movie starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling that released in theaters on July 21, 2023, be aware there are minor spoilers ahead. The good news is, you can still see it on the big screen for a little while longer, and it will be available for streaming on Max thereafter.
It’s no secret that the famous Barbiecore aesthetic has rapidly risen in popularity since billions have seen the box office hit. Those who have seen the film might have noticed that the main character, “stereotypical Barbie,” was spotted in one of the closing scenes in what looks like the popular Arizona Big Buckle Nubuck Leather Sandals in the shade of “old rose.”

The iconic color is already completely sold out at several retailers, but you can still get ahold of it at the Birkenstock site for $160. We wouldn’t be surprised if it sells out here soon too, though, considering the Barbie moment caused a 110% spike in searches for the Birkenstocks, according to retail site Lyst, and Google has clocked “Barbie Birkenstock” as a breakout search over the last 30 days.
You can shop a four other shades of the Barbie-approved style, too, all of which are pretty versatile and make for a great transition shoe from summer to fall thanks to the neutral tones.
While you’re probably interested in these sandals for the style, we can’t forget to mention the many features that accommodate comfort too. They have a breathable lining that wicks away moisture and a contoured footbed that forms to your foot, which provides ample support. Plus, the adjustable buckles ensure a perfect fit.

You can shop a similar hue, “mars red,” at Nordstrom for the same price as the old rose shade. This darker tone still fits the Barbiecore aesthetic considering baby pink isn’t the only color in Barbie’s wardrobe. “Camping Barbie” and “Cowgirl Barbie” featured in the movie wore similar darker pink colors.
For a more vibrant and perhaps most classic Barbie-pink Birkenstock, you can grab the EVA sandals in "Candy Pink" for just $55. The most affordable style that still captures the vibe of Robbie's character, these waterproof shoes are also the most lightweight. Perfect for a travel shoe or to wear somewhere you might get wet or dirty, these pink Birkenstocks are easy to clean, durable, and comfortable.
