firkenstocks 

Fake Birkenstocks that can be bought at Target or Wal-Mart or stores of that nature, and they don't cost a fortune. They tend to be more comfortable than real Birkenstocks because they aren't made of huge blocks of wood.
Tracy (unpopular): Like my new Birkenstocks, Kim?
Kim (popular): You mean Firkenstocks? I could tell those weren't real from a mile away, poser. *Turns nose up*

"When Firkin blasts into the strings, the spark of Celtic party cracks. The audience leaves the ground again and again. 100 times, 1000 times. Sounds good? It will!! Fire!" (Unit Magazine)
