About Birkenstock

At Birkenstock, tradition and heritage are important hallmarks of a brand that dates back not years or even decades, but centuries. Birkenstock is deeply rooted in the fine art of crafting premium quality shoes that are good for you. Since 1774, Birkenstock has passed this commitment down from one generation to the next. The result is the absolute best in quality, comfort and support.

The original Birkenstock footbed is the heart of all their models. While today it is synonymous with exceptional comfort, the word “footbed” was first used by Birkenstock in the 1930s to describe anatomically shaped inner soles with special support elements.

Footbed Technology

At the heart of every Birkenstock design is the legendary footbed. The details are all in the design; each element of the footbed serves a purpose to encourage proper foot wellbeing and health. The result is signature style coupled with all-day comfort.

  1. The deep heel cup cradles the heel and keeps your natural cushioning right under the heel bone.
  2. The longitudinal arch support runs along the sides of the footbed, providing stability with each step.
  3. The transverse arch support runs through the middle of the footbed, helping ensure proper alignment and a solid stance.
  4. The raised toe bar encourages the natural gripping motion of your feet, exercises the legs, and stimulates circulation.
  5. A roomy toe box allows toes to move more naturally, promoting better balance and correct foot alignment.

Sandal Structure

  1. FIRST LAYER OF JUTE - The first layer of jute forms the foundation of the footbed. It stabilizes the natural cork and latex core.
  2. CORK AND LATEX FOOTBED - The cork and latex footbed is the heart of all BIRKENSTOCK shoes. The shock-absorbing and highly flexible cork and latex core support and relieve pressure on the feet. The natural materials insulate against the heat and cold and create a good foot climate.
  3. SECOND LAYER OF JUTE - The 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. This layer of thick, absorbent jute helps to regulate moisture.
  4. SUEDE LINING - The suede lining absorbs moisture. This natural property of the high-quality top layer helps to ensure a pleasant foot climate.
