Birkenstock Boston EVA Clogs, $42 (was $60)
Why do we like this deal?
The Boston Clog has been one of Birkenstock’s bestsellers for decades, and it still looks the same today as it did in the ’70s. The Foam version takes that iconic shape and turns it into one piece of water-resistant EVA, making it an incredible summer shoe that actually feels good to wear.
The only thing that can make them better is a sale, and that’s what’s happening right now: The $60 Birkenstock Boston EVA Clogs start at $42 at Zappos, which is up to 30% off the usual price. This sale is only for the khaki colored shoes, which is the lowest price we’ve seen for the shoes in the last month.

What shoppers need to know
- Upper: eva
- Midsole: Contoured EVA footbed with deep heel cup
- Outsole: EVA, water-resistant
- Suitable: Adjustable strap with tonal pin buckle
- Best for: Poolside, gym, gardening, wet weather work, summer
The EVA version of the Boston can handle puddles, mud, and yardwork without the worry that comes with leather, and the single-piece molded construction means there’s no break-in period like sandals. That water-resistant construction also makes them great for summer, whether you’re going from the garage to the pool deck or from the car to the gym locker room. Of course, you still get the adjustable straps and overall Boston look.
The geometry of the footbed is the same as Birkenstock’s leather Boston, so the feel doesn’t change much even if the material changes. At about a third of the price of the leather version, you’re still getting a pair of Birkenstocks, and some have even found that they have comparable comfort and arch support to the OGs.

what shoppers are saying
The shoes are so comfortable that even OG Boston fans are sold: “Feels great on the feet, maybe even a little more comfortable than regular Boston clogs.” Another shopper bought these for her husband, and she said they are “very comfortable and more supportive than expected.”
There are even more reviews on Birkenstock’s site, where one shopper said they’re a “great pool and beach shoe,” and another wrote, “It’s perfect for summer. So easy to clean.”
If you’re looking for a summer shoe that’s waterproof and low-maintenance, yet still looks great, the Birkenstock Boston EVA Clogs are for you. Just be sure to grab a pair while they’re still in stock, as sizes are already running out.
