Birkenstock London Clogs, $75 (was $175)
Why do we like this deal?
Birkenstock’s closed-back styles don’t get as much attention as backless models like the Arizona sandal or Boston clog, but if you have to pick one to wear all day during spring and summer, the London clog is worth looking at. A product of the ’80s, the shoes are one of the oldest closed-toe shoes in the London brand’s catalog, and they’re over 40% off at Nordstrom Rack right now.
The $175 Birkenstock London Clogs are down to $75 at Rack, a whopping 57% off. Sizes 8 to 13 are all in stock, but the only color available is Antique White. White shoes may be a turn off for some people, but in most cases, including this casual pair of slip-ons here, they look better when life decorates them with bumps, scrapes, and bruises.

The London is one of Birk’s oldest closed-toe silhouettes, and they’ve held up just like everything else in the lineup. The suede upper and clean lines give it a natural, old-school look that pairs easily with denim or chinos, and the adjustable buckle strap keeps the fit dialed in without the break-in period you sometimes get with other clogs. They’re crafted with the brand’s signature cork footbed that gets more comfortable the more you wear them.
London is essentially Boston with a closed back, so it’s fair to compare the two. The Boston has a full retail price of $170 and has the same suede upper/cork footbed, but the London adds an adjustable back strap, giving it a refined look and a more customizable fit. Here, the back actually matters, unlike the styles you see in Dansko clogs, where the back is just for show.

what shoppers are saying
There are no written reviews for Nordstrom Rack London yet, but there are plenty on Birkenstock’s site. One of them reads, “They might be the most comfortable I’ve ever been.” One die-hard Birkenstock fan wrote, “I have three different pairs of Birkenstocks, but these take the cake.”
Another buyer found these to be great travel shoes, writing, “I love this model for comfortable travel. For someone who goes on the go, this is a great pair with excellent support and a fully enclosed design.”
The Birkenstock London Clogs are available now for $75. Just be sure to take advantage of this deal while sizes are still available, because Birkenstocks sell out very quickly when they’re on sale at such low prices.
