Why These 6 Recovery Sandals Are About to Change Your Post-Workout Game Forever (I Tested Them All)
The Birkenstock Arizona Sandals are a stylish classic with a blend of suede, leather, cork, and EVA foam for everyday wear, but I’m here to tell you they’re also a game-changer post-workout. I’m constantly seeing them on runners’ feet in New York City (I know when I spot a runner), and I understand why.
Like the Salomon RX Slide 3.0, the cork molds to my feet with each step, creating a cradling sensation. The only difference I noticed is that it took a couple of weeks for the insoles to conform to my feet, and Men’s Health style and commerce editor Joseph Cheatham agrees. “The contoured cork-latex footbed starts off a bit firm yet not super uncomfortable, but after a week or two, the sandal starts to conform to the shape of my feet in a way that feels incredibly natural underfoot,” he says. For context, a contouring footbed provides personalized support that mimics custom orthotics.
