Nordstrom Anniversary Deal: I Get So Many Compliments on These Birkenstock Big Buckle Arizona Sandals
I’m simplistic in my shoe choices — my footwear wardrobe includes a tight edit of women’s white sneakers, cushioned running shoes, strappy heels, and comfortable walking sandals that I wear on repeat. This summer, I can’t stop wearing my Birkenstock Big Buckle Arizona sandals, and they’ve earned me more compliments than any other shoes I’ve owned. During Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale, you can save $40 off.
Once written off as granola, Birkenstock sandals have had a major glow up recently: Celebs like Miley Cyrus, Taylor Swift, Gigi Hadid, and Katie Holmes are often spotted wearing these supportive sandals, showing off their versatility with skorts, dresses, and athleisure ‘fits. I’d been eyeing the Arizona sandals for awhile, and the Big Buckle version immediately won me over. The oversized metallic buckles give the classic Arizona style major oomph, taking these sandals from crunchy to so cool. TikTok users are with me on this — “Birkenstock big buckle” has over 225 million views on the app.

The Birkenstock Big Buckle Arizona Sandals have been a godsend for my plantar fasciitis-prone feet. I have high arches and walk a ton, so simple flats and flip flops never do the trick. These sandals feature the same contoured cork footbed that the brand is known for, which support my high arches whether I’m walking to work or taking my dog around the block. (City slickers will appreciate that the sandals are extra durable and keep your feet an inch off the ground, keeping grime away.)
I’ve paired my Birkenstock Arizona sandals with baggy jeans and a white T-shirt, a ribbed cotton midi dress, and workout clothes. No matter what I team them with, compliments come my way, ranging from “are those actually Birkenstocks?” to “OMG, send me the link, please.”
During Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale, Birkenstock’s Big Buckle Arizona sandals and single strap Madrid sandals are discounted up to 27 percent off. My friends aren’t the only ones adding these shoes to their wishlists — nearly 8,000 shoppers combined are viewing these pairs of sandals ahead of the Anniversary Sale opening to the public on July 17. Add these walking sandals to your wishlist, stat, and keep scrolling to shop some secret shoe deals at Nordstrom now.
