Birkenstock

The heart and soul of BIRKENSTOCK

The iconic footbed is the heart and soul of every BIRKENSTOCK. Its beautifully designed anatomical features are the fruits of knowledge passed down through generations of the Birkenstock family. Its invention was inspired by a simple but difficult-to-achieve aim: to enable walking as nature intended. In order to perform this function, the footbed’s contours are designed precisely to underpin the anatomy of the human foot, mimicking a footprint in the sand. Its layered construction uses a unique combination of natural materials processed via a series of bespoke manufacturing techniques. This guarantees optimum durability and flexibility, and means that the functionality of the BIRKENSTOCK footbed is unrivaled.

BIRKENSTOCK uses high-quality types of leather, carefully selected textiles and synthetic/blended fabrics to produce sandals and shoes. All materials are produced responsibly and continuously monitored to ensure they are kind to skin.
