Welcome to Closer's guide to shopping the best Birkenstock dupes online, from Arizona replicas to Boston Clog alternatives. News flash: Birkenstock's are cool - they're not just relegated to sock-wearing Dads now.
The Saturdays icon turned Really Great Outfits Sharer, Frankie Bridge, has found our favourite Birkenstock dupes. Yep, this season's must-have Birkenstock Boston Clogs have a celeb-approved dupe and they're a steal, with prices of some of those dupes starting from just £8.
Best Birkenstock clog dupes at a glance...
Editor's choice: New Look Sand Suedette Clogs, £27.99
Best for fur lined: Boohoo fur lined clogs, £20
Best Arizona sandal dupes: La Redoute Double Buckle Mules, £54
Sharing a fashion reel to her 1.5 million followers, Frankie revealed her go-to uniform for the school run which included off-white tracksuit bottoms, an olive bomber jacket and a cap (all from New Look), but the star of the show was her cosy yet ridiculously chic footwear choice.
Especially as they are a brilliant copy of the ubiquitous Birkenstock slip-on and are retailing for less than a quarter of the price, please enter the EGO Snug-Soda Buckle Detail Slip-On Flat Mules, £8 that are unfortunately now sold out (boo).
One fan commented, "Love your shoes😍 link please?" whilst another added, "I mean. I wish I looked this good on the school run 🙌😂"
Birkenstocks are well and truly the best sandals and pretty much go with everything. As Frankie proves, they're great for pairing with loungewear, but also look cute with midi dresses and your favourite denim.
As the original Birkenstock Boston Clogs, £130, and the Birkenstock Arizona Sandals, £80, are a little pricey, we've scoured the internet to find the very best dupes the British high street has to offer. From classic tan colourways to splashes of bold colour fit for summer, here are our top picks of the best Birkenstock dupes on the internet.

What are the best Birkenstock knockoffs?
In terms of value, we'd say the Fur Lined Closed Toe Clogs, £20 from Boohoo are the best Birkenstock 'knockoffs'. Almost identical to the originals (minus the price tag), these clogs from the high street brand are almost exact in terms of colour and design. However, these clogs also have a bonus. Yep, they're also fur-lined to keep you cosy in winter.
Are dupe Birkenstocks good?
While you might never replicate Birkenstock originals in terms of quality (after all, they're £130 for a reason), you will get a pretty spot-on dupe in terms of how they look. Sometimes, it's hard to tell the dupes from the originals because they're that good.
If you want a pair to last, then we'd recommend buying the Birkenstock Boston Clogs, £130. However, if you're just looking for a low-maintenance, affordable pair to knock around in, a pair of dupe Birkenstocks might just be the way to go.
Why are my new Birkenstocks hurting my feet?
According to Birkenstock, it can take time for your foot to adjust to the contours of the footbed and for the cork to mould. Birkenstocks come with a sturdy cork base which means they can take some time to break in. We suggest wearing them around the house for a few hours at a time to get used to them.
