BIRKENSTOCK introduces the ZÜRICH TECH

As a tribute to the timeless ZÜRICH silhouette, BIRKENSTOCK today launches its latest footwear innovation – the ZÜRICH TECH. Drawing on the unmatched design of Karl Birkenstock and inspired by utility and innovation, this iteration of the closed sandal introduced in 1964 puts the Original BIRKENSTOCK Footbed into a new context.

Engineered for comfort and agility, its singular design and new materiality embrace the future of footwear and perfectly blend form and function. BIRKENSTOCK pushes things forward. Designed with a focus on utility, ZÜRICH TECH is the contemporary reinterpretation of a sandal that, already in 1964, embodied a dynamic vision of the future. It was only the second product with a built-in Original BIRKENSTOCK Footbed - enabling the brand to integrate the footbed and the purpose of “walking as nature intended” into people’s daily lives and sustainably changing our perception of footwear.

Inspired by the functionality of winter sports, the classic BIRKENSTOCK buckle is replaced by a monochromatic, adjustable black buckle to customize the fit for optimal comfort with every step. The sandal boasts a suede upper and a lightweight EVA outsole, which provides optimal support and durability without compromising on weight.

From £150 and available now at BIRKENSTOCK.
