I have what may be some shocking news for you ladies. You may want to sit down. Ready? 

Here it is: Birkenstocks are back and bigger than ever.


At the Spring 2014 runway shows in New York, Houghton (left) had custom Birkenstocks for the catwalk. They weren't the only label taking a lax approach to fashion week. Edun (right), Shades of Grey (middle) and Tina Turk all put models in comfy flat Birkenstock-style sandals.


Maybe we shouldn't be so surprised though. Celine gave us fur lined shower shoe-esque sandals last Spring 2013 and most notably, Miley Cyrus has been a huge fan. Plus, both Marni (right) and Miu Miu (left) did variations on the beloved Birky (that's my new nickname, you heard it here first) in their Spring 2013 shows. 

So, here's the question: are these set to make a real comeback? Will they become the next 'it' shoe? What do you think? Would you wear Birkenstocks?
