Products from Birkenstock

Birkenstock is one of the big well known brand names in Germany. Johann Adam Birkenstock started his shoe production in 1774 and from then on the name Birkenstock is connected to tradition and excellent craft quality. Only best quality materials like natural cork, leather and jute are used for Birkenstock shoes and sandals and form their characteristic footbed composed by at least three layers. Since feet and comfort requirements are very individual Birkenstock are available in two different widths. When they were conceived Johann Adam was inspired by the footprint a naked foot leaves while walking on sand. This footbed (a term also invented by Birkenstock)  is exactly what creates the distinctive walking comfort that convinces so many Birkenstock fans all over the world. Quality and comfort are always focused by the company but further to this production and design are adapted to modern customer and environment requirements. Birkenstock production only uses environmentally friendly glue and could reduce consumption of energy to a great extent.

Many Birkenstock articles come in a classic design that we know for a long time but in the beginning of each season the producer surprises us with new creative designs. With colored outer soles, shining surfaces or new imprints there is no risk of boredom and collectors are again and again thrilled by the new product choice. Provided that Birkenstock shoes and sandals get sufficient care they last a very long time which is an easy way to save money and to preserve the planet by an increased sustainability. Finally, Birkenstock are a “healthy” product for humans and for our planet as well and therefore correspond to the expectations of our present times.
