I thought I’d like suede more, but when both pairs arrived I ended up liking the oiled leather ones more.\n\nSuede is super comfy right out of the box, but the straps are floppy so it’s a bit fiddly to get them on your feet. The oiled leather straps hold their shape so you can slide them on and go. \n\nThe suede pair I received were also kind of mismatched looking. The suede texture was much fuzzier on one pair than the other, whereas the leather was perfectly matched on the oiled leather pair. \n\nI braced myself for a rough break in period with the oiled leather ones, because my feet are very blister-prone, but it’s been totally fine. I wore them out walking for hours on the second day and I had no blisters or abrasions, not even from the rougher undersides of the straps.","subreddit":"Birkenstocks"},{"url":"https://www.reddit.com/r/Birkenstocks/comments/v26ny6/suede_or_leather/iar0du2/","type":"comment","title":"Suede High Maintenance and Short Lifespan","author":"__Butternut_Squash__","ref_id":"r_e_3","thread":{"url":"https://www.reddit.com/r/Birkenstocks/comments/v26ny6/suede_or_leather/","title":"suede or leather","subreddit":"Birkenstocks"},"excerpt":"Suede is softer and easier to break in, but as others have pointed out, it is high maintenance.
