Birkenstock - Designer Information Page
Birkenstock have been around for 200 years. The family run business was created by Johann Adam Birkenstock in the small German village of Langenberg.
In 1902 Johan’s grandson Konrad created flexible arch support for factory made shoes, which by 1925 were being exported to France, Italy, Austria, Holland and Switzerland. With medical backing promoting their shoes in 1947, they had a book published entitled ‘Birkenstocks Podiatry’ which was the most widely read book on foot health of its time.
By 1990 new lines Tatami and Papillio were launched and in 2004 Birkenstock received the Draper’s award for “Footwear Brand of the Year” in England for their pleasing designs suitable for all age groups.
We feel that Birkenstocks are the highlight of comfort and we recommend them to everyone. Your feet just sink into them and feel amazing, plus, with our wide range of designs and colours for both men and women we have something for everyone.
