Loyal Fans Love Their Birks
Of course they do! Birkenstock shoes have been a popular choice for decades, loved for their supreme comfort and unique design. That flexible footbed is like a dream come true for your feet. And it’s been part of their design forever, known as the “blue footbed.”
Fine tradition is part of every Birkenstock shoe and sandal thanks to craftsmanship and quality passed down for generations. Birkenstock shoes have been around since 1774, when Johann Adam Birkenstock registered as a shoemaker in a small German village. Now that’s some serious shoemaking cred.
Designed for Your Comfort
When you think about what Birkenstock is known for, you immediately think — comfort! It’s one of the most notable things about any Birkenstock shoe. The contoured footbed supports the natural shape of the foot. That foot-hugging design is just what you want for better arch support and it reduces pressure points. Enthusiasts and podiatrists alike praise the design for helping to alleviate foot pain, plantar fasciitis, and other foot-related issues. Birkenstocks are good for your feet.
It was Konrad Birkenstock, one of Johann’s descendants, who first developed the contoured footbed we still know and love. The legendary Birkentock foot bed prioritizes proper foot health and comfort combined with their signature style. A design focused on getting all the details just right. Today, Birkenstock shoes are sold in over 90 countries and are recognized as one of the top footwear brands.
Classic Style
The classic Birkenstock style continues to stand apart and gains fans in every new generation. But the company doesn’t rest on tradition alone. They continue to innovate with new styles and new materials. From the Birkenstock Arizona to the Mayari, old becomes new again with colors, materials, and fashion updates.
Legendary Design
From the foundational first layer of jute, stabilizing the natural cork and latex footbed core (the heart of all Birkenstock shoes!), to the beautiful high-quality top layer, everything about the Birkenstock design supports your feet and delivers undeniable comfort.
Perfect Climate
Every Birkenstock shoe features their shock-absorbing and highly flexible cork and latex core to support and relieve pressure on the feet. By using natural materials they insulate against the heat and cold to create the perfect climate. A second layer of jute is placed around the sides of the footbed. This increases the flexibility of the footbed and makes it significantly more durable. Plus, the thick and absorbent jute helps regulate moisture.
Environmentally friendly
Birkenstock was early to introduce advancements like environmentally friendly adhesives and to modernize production to reduce energy consumption, setting standards for innovation in their manufacturing. They’ve even introduced a vegan shoe version of their classic Birks.
