Many non birkenstock clogs
are tailored far too narrowly to accommodate the foot's
natural shape. Our models such as the Bonn here or the
Birkenstock
Tokyo with a backstrap are made to be comfortable
with plenty of toe room so your feet can stay healthy. The
original footbed was designed to mirror the shape of a healthy
foot. It supports the foot while allowing it to move freely.
Since healthy shoes are a product of the perfect fit, each
of our models comes in two different widths: normal for
sturdy feet; and narrow for particularly narrow feet. Pay
close attention to the corresponding symbols and try out
the two-width system yourself. See the Birkenstock sale
area for more...
Smooth
Leather: The leather used is super thick (about three millimeters)
yet supple. Natural leather is instantly identifiable by
its smell and the different contours and colors that characterize
its surface. We do not use any artificial dyes to cover
up these differences as we want to keep the leather open-pored
and breathing. Suede Leather: We only use extra-strong,
highly durable leather for our suede leather shoes. Here
too, the slight differences in the structure are the hallmark
of real leather. Nubuck Leather: For Nubuck leather the
natural structure of the leather is buffed up, giving it
a velvety look.
Embossed Leather: The bark-like surface structure gives
the leather a particularly expressive character. Birko-FlorŪ
Birko-Flor is a skin-friendly, tear-resistant, easy-care
material. The upper layer of this material has a leathery
structure and a soft fleece is built into the lower layer.
Birko-Flor is a progressive and inexpensive alternative
to leather. Birko-FlorŪ Nubuck: A special finishing process
gives this material a surface layer which doesn't just look
like leather but feels like leather too. Birko-Felt. Birko-felt
is made of a wool pulp mixture and synthetic fiber felt.
This mixture is practically untearable, but still permeable
to air and skin-friendly. Microfiber The high-quality microfiber
we use for our Birkenstock shoes has a delicate look that
resembles Nubuck leather. This material is especially light,
very permeable to air, durable and skin-friendly.
