Guillain-Barre Syndrome is a problem with your nervous system. It can cause muscle weakness, reflex loss, and numbness or tingling in parts of your body. It can lead to paralysis, which is usually temporary.
I did not (and now feel justified in drinking a glass of vino the next time I don my 10-year-old Birks). That is one of the fun facts I discovered while researching Birko-Flor, which was not around when I acquired my pair. According to the company, Birko-Flor is a fabric âmade of acrylic and polyamide felt fibers.â The good news: Itâs waterproof and cheaper than leather. The bad news: Acrylic is essentially a plastic.
OK, now I'm getting the difference btwn the birko flor and the real suede. I've only had real nubuck Arizona's with a suede footbed. I liked them. They did get a bit stinky from my sweaty feet, but otherwise, very comfy. Like I said, I'd like to get something with 2 straps, but a little slimmer profile.
