About Birkenstock

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.

At the heart of every Birkenstock is the footbed that started it all. Birkenstock invented the contoured footbed, introducing the concept in the 1930s for anatomically shaped insoles with incredible support. Since then, many have tried to copy the idea, but there is only one that can proudly bear the Birkenstock name.

Birkenstock sets the standard for comfort, quality and functionality. It all starts with carefully selected, high-quality materials from sustainable sources. The original, iconic Birkenstock footbed is known for its high-quality natural materials: cork, latex and jute. Top quality leathers and synthetic materials ensure a premium-level all-around product.

How things are made matter as much as the product itself. Birkenstock products are made with deep respect for German and European standards for ethical, social and environmental responsibility. This tradition, quality and craftsmanship is what sets Birkenstock apart, and has since 1774.
