I wear Birkenstocks or Birkenstock orthotics and have for many years, per a podiatrist who checked me out. I find these shoes/orthotics to be more comfortable to going barefoot - I love them. If you buy them on ebay, shoe stores sell them new, in boxes, for less than 1/2 the price in stores. I've bought so many pairs this way! Their 'Tatami' sub-brand have black soles, so they don't have the 'earth mother' look to them.
