The Birkenstock-Fitness-Sandals<br />

The first Birkenstock sandals were launched <strong>in</strong> 1964. Their<br />

name: “Fitness Sandals”. Today, this model is also known<br />

under the name of “Madrid”. The orig<strong>in</strong>al name appropriately<br />

describes the function of this model. Because<br />

Birkenstock Fitness Sandals offer you a bonus: they exercise<br />

your feet and legs with every step you take.<br />

And this is how the Fitness-Sandals work:<br />

The relationship between the strap and footbed causes a<br />

gripp<strong>in</strong>g reflex of the foot with every step taken. Dur<strong>in</strong>g the<br />

gripp<strong>in</strong>g reflex, both the feet and ankle muscles are tensed,<br />

as the muscles responsible for the toe movement are<br />

located <strong>in</strong> the ankles. The muscles are then totally relaxed<br />

aga<strong>in</strong> when the heel is set down. In this way, there is constant<br />

tens<strong>in</strong>g and relax<strong>in</strong>g of the muscles with every step<br />

taken with the Madrid model. Gentle exercise for your feet<br />

and legs. In addition, the circulation of the legs is boosted.<br />

The model “Ibiza” also has this effect- you can choose either<br />

of the models.<br />

Illustration above: The “toe-gripper” helps return the toes to their natural<br />

position.<br />

Illustration on the right: The Birkenstock footbed is flexible and facilitates<br />

the relaxation of muscles when the heel is set down.<br />

Switch to Birkenstock<br />

Whether you're out on the street, <strong>in</strong> the office or on the move - shoes that cramp your feet soon start to cramp your style<br />

as stand<strong>in</strong>g up beg<strong>in</strong>s to feel like someth<strong>in</strong>g close to torture. Treat your feet to a break with Birkenstock sandals! Light,<br />

handy and extremely comfortable, our barga<strong>in</strong> Madrid model fits <strong>in</strong>to almost every bag - the perfect pair to take along<br />

wherever you go. They are available <strong>in</strong> a range of styles, one of which is bound to take your fancy. Your feet will thank<br />

you for it.<br />

Birkenstock’s thong sandals are made with the utmost care. We have meticulously tested and adjusted our thong<br />

sandal – until it was best suited to the foot’s anatomy. By the way: prolonged wear<strong>in</strong>g of fashion shoes that are<br />

too narrow can result <strong>in</strong> your toes be<strong>in</strong>g pa<strong>in</strong>fully constricted – Birkenstock’s thong sandal helps return your toes<br />

to their natural position. We therefore recommend that you choose the “normal” width when select<strong>in</strong>g a model.<br />

The “narrow” width footbed has been designed specifically for very th<strong>in</strong> feet. Our <strong>two</strong>-width system means that<br />

you’ll always f<strong>in</strong>d the perfect fit. Try it out for yourself!<br />

Healthy feet right from the start: Parents who take care that their children’s footwear is<br />

healthy with a natural footbed are play<strong>in</strong>g it safe. Because small children’s still soft foot<br />

skeletons need to develop first with a stable support system. Children’s feet need support<br />

until they have developed. The Birkenstock footbed is optimal for this: light, flexible<br />

and available <strong>in</strong> <strong>two</strong> <strong>widths</strong>.<br />

slender feet<br />

For a shoe to fit perfectly, it has to have the proper<br />

length and width. When mak<strong>in</strong>g your purchase, be sure<br />

that your foot has enough room <strong>in</strong> the width as well as<br />

several millimetres of space <strong>in</strong> the toe and heel areas<br />

to allow you to move freely.<br />

Our tip: always try on new Birkenstocks while stand<strong>in</strong>g,<br />

leav<strong>in</strong>g the straps unfastened – you’ll f<strong>in</strong>d it easier to<br />

determ<strong>in</strong>e the ideal width and length for you. As a<br />

result, you’ll have a better posture and your<br />

Birkenstocks will last longer.<br />

Cross section of the footbed<br />

There is a soft, anatomically shaped cork latex core between<br />

the various jute layers. The lower jute layer provides<br />

stability while the upper, denser jute layer absorbs<br />

moisture. Layer<strong>in</strong>g these together along with the suede<br />

leather cover sole ensures an optimum "climate" for your<br />

feet and unsurpassed wear<strong>in</strong>g comfort.<br />

Our materials: natural<br />

Sandal or Clog - the foundation of each and every<br />

model is a footbed fashioned from natural and renewable<br />

materials. We only use the f<strong>in</strong>est, high-quality cork<br />

made from cork oak bark, which grows back on the tree<br />

after removal. The rubber tree’s natural sap (latex) is<br />

another crucial component of the footbed. Each<br />

footbed also conta<strong>in</strong>s <strong>two</strong> layers of jute yarn, made<br />

from the fibres of a plant that grows <strong>in</strong> the Southeast<br />

Asian marshlands. These quality materials come<br />

together and – by virtue of their composition – form a Carefully peeled: bark from the cork oak Valuable resource: bark of the cork oak<br />

flexible, light, moisture-absorbent, heat and cold-resistant footbed. All these factors contribute to the high comfort<br />

level and the pleasant foot climate provided by Birkenstocks.<br />

Our fit: perfect<br />

Many shoes are tailored far too narrowly to accommodate the foot’s natural shape. Our models are made to<br />

be comfortable – with plenty of toe room so your feet can stay healthy. The orig<strong>in</strong>al Birkenstock footbed was<br />

designed to mirror the shape of a healthy foot. It supports the foot while allow<strong>in</strong>g it to move freely. S<strong>in</strong>ce<br />

healthy shoes are a product of the perfect fit, each of our models comes <strong>in</strong> <strong>two</strong> different <strong>widths</strong>: normal for<br />

sturdy feet; and narrow for particularly narrow feet. Pay close attention to the correspond<strong>in</strong>g symbols and try<br />

out the <strong>two</strong>-width system yourself.<br />

37


The Birkenstock-fit<br />

<strong>Comfort</strong> is a difficult th<strong>in</strong>g to describe. It’s someth<strong>in</strong>g that’s much easier to sense – slipp<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>to a pair of Birkenstock<br />

sandals, for example, after a strenuous day <strong>in</strong> pumps, po<strong>in</strong>ty-toed, flats or narrow-fitt<strong>in</strong>g shoes. The Birkenstock comfort<br />

secret is the shoe’s one of a k<strong>in</strong>d fit. For the Birkenstock footbed – available <strong>in</strong> <strong>two</strong> <strong>widths</strong> – has been designed to mirror<br />

the shape of a healthy foot. It supports you right where you need it and gives you enough room to move freely. As a<br />

result, you’ll be able to walk and stand comfortably <strong>in</strong> your Birkenstock’s for hours on end.<br />

Simply better: the orig<strong>in</strong>al Birkenstock<br />

The cross-section clearly<br />

Many fashion shoes leave comfort by the wayside:<br />

depicts how wear<strong>in</strong>g shoes that<br />

toes are pa<strong>in</strong>fully constricted (Fig. 1). Feet have to<br />

are too narrow forces the foot to<br />

adjust themselves narrow-fitt<strong>in</strong>g shoes. Birkenstock<br />

assume an <strong>in</strong>correct posture,<br />

thong sandals have found a healthy balance: the<br />

which, <strong>in</strong> the long run, can lead<br />

depressions <strong>in</strong> the footbed help soothe toes back <strong>in</strong>to<br />

to the formation of bunions and<br />

their natural position (Fig. 2).<br />

a crooked big toe (see Fig. 1).<br />

Simply more comfortable: no heels<br />

Sandals and other heelless shoes enable you to walk<br />

naturally and help you to assume natural body posture<br />

(Fig. 5): your calf muscles relax allow<strong>in</strong>g for 90 per cent<br />

of your bodyweight to be supported by the rear of your<br />

foot – <strong>in</strong> particular by the heel bone, the foot’s strongest<br />

bone (Fig. 3). The heel bone works as a natural<br />

shock absorber with every step you take. It is equipped<br />

with a strong layer of protective tissue that cushions<br />

every bit of physical impact. A pump works differently:<br />

bodyweight is shifted forward – forc<strong>in</strong>g the ball and<br />

front of your foot to carry up to 50 per cent of it (Fig. 4).<br />

Toes and the midfoot bones are subjected to excessive<br />

stress, caus<strong>in</strong>g the calf muscles to contract. The<br />

body assumes an unnecessarily crooked position –<br />

with the pelvis tilt<strong>in</strong>g forward and the sp<strong>in</strong>e contort<strong>in</strong>g<br />

<strong>in</strong> an unnatural position. Switch<strong>in</strong>g to heelless shoes is<br />

therefore advisable to avoid foot, leg and back <strong>in</strong>juries.<br />

We recommend: pumps when necessary -<br />

Birkenstocks as often as possible.<br />

Unh<strong>in</strong>dered by pumps, the<br />

strong heel bone can fulfil its<br />

function of carry<strong>in</strong>g our bodyweight<br />

(Fig. 3).<br />

Pumps unnaturally shift our<br />

overall bodyweight forward. The<br />

small bones <strong>in</strong> the midfoot are<br />

pushed forward, and result of<br />

walk<strong>in</strong>g on unprotected bones<br />

is pa<strong>in</strong> (Fig. 4).<br />

Walk<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> pumps leads to an<br />

abnormal posture: the pelvis<br />

tilts forward and the sp<strong>in</strong>e is<br />

crooked. This can lead to severe<br />

back pa<strong>in</strong> and <strong>in</strong>tervertebral<br />

disc damage (Fig. 6).<br />

The Birkenstock-materials<br />

Smooth Leather<br />

The leather we use is super thick (about three millimetres) yet supple. Natural leather is <strong>in</strong>stantly<br />

identifiable by its smell and the different contours and colours that characterise its surface. We do<br />

not use any artificial dyes to cover up these differences as we want to keep the leather open-pored<br />

and breath<strong>in</strong>g.<br />

Suede Leather<br />

We only use extra-strong, highly durable leather for our suede leather shoes. Here too, the<br />

slight differences <strong>in</strong> the structure are the hallmark of real leather.<br />

Nubuk Leather<br />

For Nubuk leather the natural structure of the leather is buffed up, giv<strong>in</strong>g it a velvety look.<br />

Embossed Leather The bark-like surface structure gives the Birkenstock leather a particularly<br />

expressive character.<br />

Birko-Flor ®<br />

Birko-Flor is a sk<strong>in</strong>-friendly, tear-resistant, easy-care material. The upper layer of this material has<br />

a leathery structure and a soft fleece is built <strong>in</strong>to the lower layer. Birko-Flor is a progressive and<br />

<strong>in</strong>expensive alternative to leather.<br />

Birko-Flor ® -Nubuk<br />

A special f<strong>in</strong>ish<strong>in</strong>g process gives this material a surface layer which doesn't just look like leather<br />

but feels like leather too.<br />

Birko-Felt<br />

Birko-felt is made of a woolpulp mixture and synthetic fibre felt. This mixture is practically untearable, but still<br />

permeable to air and sk<strong>in</strong>-friendly.<br />

Microfibre<br />

The high-quality microfibre we use for our Birkenstock shoes has a delicate look that resembles<br />

Nubuk leather. This material is especially light, very permeable to air, durable and sk<strong>in</strong>-friendly.<br />

Birko-Flor ® , Birko-Flor ® -Nubuk und Birko-Felt are exclusively produced for Birkenstock.<br />

39


Birkenstock quality<br />

Quality is our top priority. For our leather models we use only cow leather which is 2.8 -3 millimetres thick. As it is<br />

unsplit, all valuable qualities such as the typical surface structure, toughness and longevity of this natural material<br />

are preserved. Leather of this thickness is not readily available everywhere. Due to the particular breed and husbandry<br />

conditions of the cattle as well as climatic conditions, only leather orig<strong>in</strong>at<strong>in</strong>g from Central Europe meets our criteria.<br />

In addition, we only buy from tanneries which comply with the strictest environmental regulations. Moreover,<br />

our strict quality controls guarantee that only pieces of leather without any defects are used. Pieces hav<strong>in</strong>g cicatisation<br />

caused by mosquito or tick bites or thorn scratches are sorted out.<br />

When select<strong>in</strong>g the raw materials for our footbed, only the best will do: only especially<br />

pure and high-quality natural cork is used here. And the latex milk taken from the<br />

bark of the cork tree is processed <strong>in</strong> many steps subject to careful controls <strong>in</strong>to an<br />

adhesive substance which holds the cork granulate together. Due to its tensile<br />

strength, latex keeps the footbed elastic and ensures a long lifetime wear. The textile<br />

plant fibre jute also has to first be roasted, peeled, combed, cleaned and then made<br />

supple before it can be spun <strong>in</strong>to jute fabric and then used to stabilise our footbed and<br />

absorb moisture.<br />

Cork bark, stamp<strong>in</strong>g residue<br />

and granulate<br />

Another quality feature that dist<strong>in</strong>guishes Birkenstock<br />

from other brands is the elongated cut of the upper<br />

material toward the heel. This holds the feet firmly <strong>in</strong> the<br />

footbed and br<strong>in</strong>gs them to their optimal position when<br />

the heel is set down dur<strong>in</strong>g the walk<strong>in</strong>g motion.<br />

Our buckles are also made with the greatest care: each<br />

buckle is protected aga<strong>in</strong>st corrosion with baked-on<br />

enamel, mak<strong>in</strong>g them especially durable. The clamps<br />

attach<strong>in</strong>g the buckles to the upper material are curved<br />

<strong>in</strong>wards so that they cannot be felt. For an optimum<br />

hold, the buckles are clamped <strong>in</strong> four places.<br />

Birkenstock stands for quality from the buckle to the<br />

sole. We place great value on the soles <strong>in</strong> use. They are<br />

made of EVA (ethylv<strong>in</strong>ylacetate) and are dist<strong>in</strong>guished<br />

by a high degree of abrasion resistance and <strong>in</strong>sulation<br />

properties.<br />

Stand<strong>in</strong>g and walk<strong>in</strong>g jobs<br />

Many times we are required to spend a fair amount of time on our feet. Without supportive<br />

footwear, foot and leg fatigue can set <strong>in</strong> very quickly. Even worse, permanently<br />

damaged feet and a variety of other health problems can result. Our recommendation is:<br />

wear fashion shoes as little as possible, Birkenstock-sandals as often as possible. There<br />

is a good reason why Birkenstock's are favoured by people who have to stand and walk<br />

a lot on the job. We do spend a fair amount of our day on the job - a very good reason<br />

to spend it on healthy feet! Remember that all our Birkenstock styles are available <strong>in</strong> <strong>two</strong><br />

<strong>widths</strong>. This way you will always have the perfect fit.<br />

Highest quality<br />

The super-grip sole excels through its specific characteristics. Along with the non-abrasive and<br />

durable material the super-grip sole conv<strong>in</strong>ces with its oil and grease resistant properties. You<br />

always have a secure stand<strong>in</strong>g position with the help of the extremely slip-resistant super-grip<br />

sole. The mark of dist<strong>in</strong>ction of the supergrip sole is the comb<strong>in</strong>ation of the <strong>two</strong> components<br />

which make up the supergrip sole. The rubber tread guarantees secure foothold and is nonabrasive.<br />

The EVA-<strong>in</strong>termediate layer enables the foot's natural roll<strong>in</strong>g motion and cushions<br />

each step. You have never passed a more comfortable day on your feet.

Style Antistatic<br />

Have you ever encountered these unpleasant electro-static shocks when touch<strong>in</strong>g a doorknob<br />

or a car door or discharges when shak<strong>in</strong>g hands In order to avoid these pa<strong>in</strong>ful<br />

discharges, our ESD-footwear was developed so that the static charge with<strong>in</strong> our body<br />

can cont<strong>in</strong>uously dissipate softly. Conductive metal rivets added to the ball and heel of<br />

the footbeds dra<strong>in</strong> static electricity from our body through the shoes to the floor. Antistatic<br />

glues and an anti-static outer sole (EVA sole) further enhance anti-static protection.<br />

The ESD-tag (Electrostatic<br />

Discharge) marks the<br />

antistatic sandals<br />

The new shoes by Birkenstock<br />

Well-laced and so comfortable: our three new closed models have a Birkenstock footbed covered with calf leather that<br />

can be removed and exchanged. It is the same as the comfortable footbed that we use for all sandal and clog models.<br />

Only the toe-gripper was somewhat toned down, because the cut form of “Devon”, “Norton” and “Harrison” already<br />

provides support. All models are processed with an <strong>in</strong>ner padd<strong>in</strong>g of calf leather which is especially moisture-absorbent.<br />

In addition, these classic casual shoes have a light and <strong>in</strong>tensely <strong>in</strong>sulat<strong>in</strong>g sole made out of polyurethane (PUR).<br />

The Blue Footbed ®<br />

The Blue Footbed ® is ideal for anyone want<strong>in</strong>g to enjoy Birkenstock’s unique comfort <strong>in</strong> closed shoes by other manufacturers<br />

too. It is available <strong>in</strong> three <strong>widths</strong> and <strong>two</strong> designs. Whereas the Blue Footbed ®<br />

“Tradition” is more suitable for shoes with heels due to its higher arch, the Blue Footbed ® “Sport”<br />

is recommended for shoes without heels.<br />

The Blue Footbed ®<br />

takes less room <strong>in</strong> the shoe than regular <strong>in</strong>soles<br />

is manufactured from natural materials and ensures a healthy foot climate<br />

ensures an optimum spread<strong>in</strong>g of the weight<br />

In case you’re wonder<strong>in</strong>g: the Blue Footbed ® has a three quarter length <strong>in</strong> order to ensure a perfect fit. Because shoe<br />

size can be different from the size of the feet. For this reason, the footbed has to be carefully adjusted by your retailer<br />

before purchase.<br />

<strong>Comfort</strong> <strong>in</strong> all shoes<br />

Toe-free <strong>in</strong>soles from Birkenstock<br />

These <strong>in</strong>soles are no ord<strong>in</strong>ary flat but anatomically formed masterpieces, which respect and support the natural shape<br />

of the foot and immediately provide you with sense of well-be<strong>in</strong>g. They fit <strong>in</strong> any type of shoe!<br />

The heel is sitt<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong><br />

a cup. This cup is<br />

very th<strong>in</strong> to reduce<br />

heel slippage.<br />

The toes can grip<br />

without any resistance.<br />

The tip of<br />

the shoe is spared,<br />

toes do not<br />

get crowded.<br />

On the <strong>in</strong>side just<br />

before the heel,<br />

there's another<br />

foothold <strong>in</strong> place.<br />

The longitud<strong>in</strong>al curve<br />

is formed anatomically<br />

correct all the way to the<br />

front of the heel and has a<br />

most agreeable effect on<br />

the forefoot as well as the<br />

longitud<strong>in</strong>al arch.<br />

The entire ball<br />

of the foot is<br />

cushioned softly.<br />

The toe-grip stimulates<br />

a natural gripp<strong>in</strong>g motion<br />

of the toes and thus<br />

results <strong>in</strong> ultimate blood<br />

circulation of the foot.<br />

Full-length <strong>in</strong>soles with footbed<br />

Footbed <strong>in</strong>soles are anatomically formed like footpr<strong>in</strong>ts <strong>in</strong> the sand. The ball of the foot and the heel are padded softly.<br />

Millions of air bubbles with<strong>in</strong> the micro-latex foam let the foot step softly and protect sensitive areas. The micro foam<br />

we use is permanently elastic. This guarantees very good shock absorption. Moreover, we offer a variety of different<br />
