Why I love them

They’re made to look and feel just like the $165 high-end designer version, but these are only $74, which is 55% LESS than the originals. I’ve tried both, and I actually prefer Quince’s version! These Birkenstock Boston dupes are lighter, more comfortable, and just an all-around better shoe.

On top of that, these clogs are made with 100% water-repellent suede leather, a little upgrade you might not find with other designer versions. And the best part is you get free standard shipping and 365 days to return them (not that you’ll want to)!

They're definitely the most on-trend shoes I see all over Orange County. my tween daughter even tried to steal them from me (proof they’re that good!), and I had to put my foot down because I wear them almost every single day. Whether you're heading out on a trip, lounging at home, or running a quick errand, these clogs give you that cozy slipper-like feel while still being totally wearable as real shoes.

Birkenstock Boston dupe FAQ

Are Quince clogs really as good as Birkenstock Bostons?

After wearing both, yes — and I actually prefer the Quince version. They’re lighter, water-repellent, require zero break-in, and cost 55% less.

Do Quince clog mules run big or small?

They run slightly wide and only come in whole sizes. If you’re between sizes or have a narrow foot, size down.

Are the Quince Birkenstock Boston dupes waterproof?

The suede is 100% water-repellent — it shrugs off rain, puddles, and accidental spills, though it’s not fully submersible.

What’s the difference between the Birkenstock Boston and the Quince Suede Clog Mule?

The silhouette and look are nearly identical. Quince uses a cushioned foam insole with zero break-in (vs. Birkenstock’s cork-latex), the suede is water-repellent, sizing comes in whole sizes only, and Quince is $74 vs. $165 for the Birkenstock Boston.

Is the Birkenstock Boston worth the price?

If you love the cork-latex footbed and don’t mind a 1–2 week break-in, yes. If you want the same look with no break-in for $90 less, the Quince dupe is the better buy.
