At the end of a long day at work, all you want to do is remove your shoes, toss your bag, pop in the shower, and change into something cosy and comfortable. But wait. What if the most comfortable aspect of your busy day was your shoes? And what if you NEVER wanted to remove them?

With BIRKENSTOCK, this is a distinct possibility! Over the years, the brand has established itself as the personification of unparalleled comfort and evergreen style when it comes to footwear. Since its conception, comfort has been at the core of the brand’s philosophy. Their iconic contoured footbed, often copied, never equalled (in their own words!), is the fundamental in which the comfort quotient resides.

The original BIRKENSTOCK footbed comprises four layers: jute, cork-latex, followed by a second layer of jute, topped with a suede finish. For a brand that has defined and maximized comfort for its wearers, it was a question of what they could add to make their footwear even more comfortable and sought-after. To make the footbed experience even better, an extra layer of foam insert was added before the suede cover. This added detail formed a footbed variant: the Soft-Footbed, distinguished by the bright blue BIRKENSTOCK logo.

The anatomically shaped BIRKENSTOCK footbed provides the same comfort as standing barefoot on a beach. Designed based on the impression of feet on sand, the footbed mimics the natural shape of the sole. It has a deep heel cup, arch support for the middle sole, followed by the toe grooves, and a high footbed edge that protects the toe during the rolling motion while walking. These little details ensure that your feet are always at ease, during both activity and rest.
