Down West, a little village craft shop sells every kind of Birkenstock imaginable

We’re firm fans of the ‘stocks and socks look.
Love ’em or loathe ’em, Birkenstock sandals have become a go-to choice for cool kids and West Cork hipsters, and for good reason.
First off, they’re comfy as all heck. Plus, they mould to your feet over time, so it’s like having a custom-fit pair just for you.
You might not have realised that Birkenstocks come in any other colour except black and brown, because those are the most popular choices stocked in the highstreet stores.
But a little craft shop in Bantry is absolutely blowing our minds with a selection of Birks that, frankly, we never knew even existed.
We’re talkin’ yellow suede, lavender nubuck leather, chunky, suede Arizona Birks in candy pink, vegan Birks, boot Birks, slippers… The Craft Shop Bantry has it all.

You can even get replacement footbeds *swoon*.
These bad boys are built to last, so you’re getting plenty of bang for your buck too. If you’re ready to hop on the Birkenstocks bandwagon, The Craft Shop Bantry is located at 11 Glengarriff Rd, Town Lots, Bantry, or you can shop their online store here.
