Specialty Birkenstock Footwear 332 Forest Avenue, Laguna Beach, CA 92651

"Read before visiting store!! You have to make an appointment to see Luke. He arrives early and leaves early. But, it is well worth it!! His shop is the only place you can get expert advise and expert work/repairs. His character is different but, don't let that get in the way of the best service for Birkenstocks anywhere. I've been using him for 10 years and will continue to use him until he retires."

"Luke is a treasure. I went this morning as I have been having some foot issues and proceeded to receive the most amazing fitting and education about the human foot! Without me telling him, he was able to describe to me much of what my challenges are and what is causing them. Luke also gave me some terrific insight into what shoes I should be looking for and volunteered to review all of my existing shoes with me by simply bringing them in. Luke is only open early in the mornings so please call first to ensure that he is there. Early morning in Laguna is fabulous as it is relatively quiet and the parking is wide open! Do yourself a favor and call Luke!"

"Luke is amazing! He really knows his stuff and will help make sure you leave the store happy and informed. He was so great in helping us find the right size and making sure we were happy with what we were getting. Best birkenstock store ever."

"The owner has been doing this for over 30 years. He is super knowledgable and makes sure you absolutely have the proper fit! You will want to call to confirm store hours as he travels from Santa Monica each day and may also be the reason for the early hours of operation. I am glad I held out and went to this store vs. trying to buy online. I would agree with Vice quite the experience...my Dad has been going to this guy for years."
