Birkenstocks are beloved by many — including moms, dads, teens, fashionistas and celebrities. Joanna Gaines recently sported her favorite pair of Birkis, the Birkenstock Arizona Soft Footbed Suede sandals, on an Instagram post with her sweet son, Crew Gaines.

Although this isn’t the first time the “Fixer-Upper” star has sported her favorite Birkenstocks. The mother of five has showed off these sandals several times on Instagram, often styling the Arizona suede sandals with skinny jeans and a simple t-shirt.

Birkenstocks’ loyal fan base also includes Gwyneth Paltrow, Jessica Alba, Naomi Watts and Miranda Kerr.

The 244-year-old company has steadily grown its business over the years. Between 2012 and 2016, Birkenstocks sales reached $800 million, reports the Business of Fashion. In 2018, the brand was slated to sell 25 million pairs and an additional 30 million pairs in 2019.

More recently, we’ve seen Birkenstocks collaborate with high fashion designers like Rick Owens and brands including Valentino and Opening Ceremony. However, at the heart of the shoes’ success is the fact that they have stayed true to what’s most important: quality and comfort. The classic Birkenstocks have a cork footbed that molds to your feet to create that perfect, tailored fit. But if you prefer something more lightweight and waterproof — for all those beach days and pool parties this summer — the Arizona Essentials have a waterproof, EVA outsole and interior with shock-absorbing support.

Still need more convincing? Simply read through the sandals’ 1,000+ 5-star reviews, which exalt the love people have for these fan-favorite shoes.
