Vogue Editors Endorse Birkenstocks and Baggy Jeans as Summer Uniform

Vogue editors have declared Birkenstock Arizonas paired with baggy jeans the ultimate easy summer outfit. The combination is praised for its simplicity, practicality, and effortless cool, requiring minimal styling. It has been worn by celebrities like Julianne Moore, Tracee Ellis Ross, Gigi Hadid, and Kendall Jenner, often while running errands in Los Angeles, but is suitable for vacations, city breaks, or heatwaves in London. The classic Arizona silhouette with double strap and molded footbed is recommended in understated colors like taupe, brown, or black to avoid seasonal trends; a limited edition 1774 collection collaboration with Repetto drops this summer. For denim, relaxed fits such as wide-leg, baggy, barrel, or balloon jeans that pool at the ankles are suggested, paired with elevated basics like T-shirts, polo tops, or button-downs. The article rounds up favorite Birkenstock styles and complementary denim brands including Citizens of Humanity, Ayla, and 1996 D-Sire.
