This is the time to buy a new pair of Birkenstocks. Thanks to the sales which makes them decidedly more affordable and, before they sell out, the low price is a valid reason to add a new pair to your collection. And although many people don’t find them very beautiful, the reality is that, for some time now, from simple orthopedic sandals they have turned into accessories cool. Fashion enthusiasts will not only have noticed them on the feet of stars and influencer but they compete to get hold of the most exclusive models. The line Birkenstock 1774in fact, collaborates with the most important brand to the creation of clogs limited editions that regularly sell out, despite their high price.
What does Birkenstock mean?
The brand takes its name from its founder, Konrad Birkenstock who began his footwear adventure in Frankfurt way back in 1895. In 1897 he revolutionised it by developing the now famous anatomical shapewhich has since then been a symbol of the brand: an innovation that featured a rounded back, a malleable sole, and a distinction between left and right foot. Later, he began to think about how the foot could follow its natural movement inside a modern shoe and in 1902, his experiments led to the production of the first insoles (until then made of metal). According to Konrad, in fact, the insoles were not only a way to cure or alleviate foot diseases, but were essential for its general health.
What’s so special about Birkenstocks?
Their strong point, right from the start, was precisely the comfort so much so that Karl Birkenstock collaborated with the doctors for the diffusion of his line of shoes that were distributed mainly in orthopedic stores. Then, something suddenly changed: in 1990 Kate Moss posed for a photoshoot by Corinne Day and published on The Face wearing Birkenstocks while Marc Jacobs, in 1993, made the models who paraded for the legendary collection designed for Perris Ellis. Little by little the fashion world has thus discovered the side glam of these sandals which, in more recent times, have been reinterpreted by the most famous brands, such as Valentino, Jil Sander And Proenza Schouler.
Which Birkenstocks are in fashion and are worth buying on sale?
The best seller it is without a doubt Arizona (he even wore them Steve Jobs in the Seventies!), which over the years has been proposed in numerous colour and material variations (lately the version in soft coloured rubber has also been very popular). Also Bostoncork clog, has become particularly trendy with Gizathe flip-flop for which three years of experimentation were necessary which finally allowed the anatomical sole to be adapted to the particular shape of the upper.
Before it’s too late and before all sizes sell out, now is the right time to buy the hottest models on sale.
Arizona
I’m a real one passe-partoutfrom the classic version with a solid-colored upper and cork sole to those with special details, such as the large buckles and golden. Those in eraserthen, they are not only comfortable and very light but also perfect for the sea since, immersed in water, they dry in an instant. Unlike the variant in cork which must instead be cleaned with soapy water it’s a soft brush. The detergent It must be removed with a wet cloth, taking care not to wet the shoes too much, which, once the ritual is concluded, must be left to dry in the open air.
Uji
That is, a more modern and revisited version of the classic Arizona thanks to the addition of Velcro and visible rivets. Very comfortable because they can be adjusted to the shape of the foot, the Uji are also easy to put on. Very comfortable with the cork base, but perhaps this could be the right time to try a long-term investment and buy the version with shearling interiorto wear for the autumn season.
Boston
They were the hit of last fall/winter, loved both in suede and soft nappa. Birkeston Bostons are the it shoes of the moment and, for this reason, finding them on sale is a reason to buy a pair right away, to wear both now and when the cold arrives (with the addition of a pair of socks, just as fashion dictates).

Giza
Created in 1983, they take their name from the city of Giza: the flip-flop sandal made its first appearance in ancient Egypt, around 1400 BC. Now, the most minimalist model of the brand It is also among the most appreciated, often spotted at the foot of celebrities and it girls who appreciate it silhouette simple and, above all, natural comfort. Now on sale, they can be found both in the EVA modelmade of rubber, both in the classic version and the one with a maxi gold buckle.

Presented at the 1963 shoe fair in Düsseldorf, it was not an immediate success. Now, however, it is one of the shape most appreciated especially in the version with maxi buckle, also known as model Birkenstock Big Buckle.
