How many brands can trace their roots back to 1774? Not many, we’d bet. With over two centuries of expertise under its belt, Birkenstock knows a thing or two about footwear.
It all started in 1774 with Johann Adam Birkenstock, a humble cobbler from Langen-Bergheim, Germany. Six generations later and the Birkenstock family is now a global player in the footwear world. Here at UrlfreezeShops, were celebrating this tradition-rich, family-owned brand with our men’s Birkenstock footwear collection.
Our men’s Birkenstock edit covers all the legends. For your new warm weather go-tos, check out our men’s Birkenstock sandals. Classic styles include the Arizona, a cult icon hailing from the ‘70s or the Kyoto, which takes notes from the brand’s heritage Zürich model. Or, as seen on Instagram, channel your love of clogs with a pair of men’s Birkenstock Bostons - style them with or without socks, we’ll let you decide.
At the heart (and sole) of all Birkenstock footwear is the brand’s legendary invention - their unique, anatomically shaped footbed. Crafted from layers of flexible, shock-absorbing cork and latex, Birkenstock’s footbed is designed to relieve pressure on your feet, for unmatched comfort while you’re trekking around the city in search of the perfect coffee.
Birkenstock’s men’s footwear is produced under the best conditions in Germany and Portugal. Men’s Birkenstock sandals take up to 17 steps to create, while Birkenstock’s men’s shoes require over 100 highly skilled hand movements to craft each pair. Birkenstock’s carefully selected raw materials, including its soft leather, pure merino wool felt, velvety suede and springy cork, are sustainable and natural, sourced, where possible, from Europe.
