Berserker's Greavers are a bad choice due to the existence of Ionian Boots of Lucidity.

Because of Azir's passive, he gains more attack speed with more CDR. IBL offers CDR, and while it doesn't offers as much attack speed as if Azir were to use Berserker's Greavers, the difference is not that enormous (18% from IBL when compared to 25% from Berserker's) but due to IBL also offering cooldown reduction, it is way more cost-efficient.

I don't use Sorcerer's Shoes because I tend to buy Void Staff, and the magic penetration from Sorcerer's Shoes is negligible when you have Void Staff, so at that point those boots become inneficient. I do this on every mage, not just on Azir, but Azir is the one who takes the most advantage of this, due to his passive.
