Birkenstock Arizona: Timeless chic for healthy feet

The cult sandal Arizona with the classic two straps has been inspiring for decades with its timeless design. The reason for this hype is also the prominent Birkenstock wearers like Heidi Klum, Alexa Chung or Jessica Alba. At first glance, you cannot tell that this sandal is a health shoe that gives your feet optimum support. But orthopaedically valuable shoes and chic design have long since ceased to be opposites at Birkenstock. On the contrary: Birkenstock sandals stand for German quality shoes. Healthy feet are exactly what Birkenstock promises thanks to their comfortable cork sole and ergonomic footbed – and what has made them one of the most successful shoe trends worldwide since the company was founded in 1774. Like the models Madrid, Gizeh and Boston, Arizona is one of the most established and popular shoes of the quality brand.

Go wherever you want – with Birkenstock Arizona you can reach any destination

The reason why the Arizona mule is so popular is because of its high quality, comfort and design. Specially developed Birko-flor upper material, the ergonomically shaped cover sole made of nubuck leather and the footbed made of natural cork ensure maximum comfort. The EVA outsole is specially designed for slender and narrow feet. But you can also get this model for wider feet. At the heart of it all is the original Birkenstock footbed. The construction is based on the natural footprint of a foot in the sand and helps your feet perform their work for many hours without stress. This ergonomically shaped relieving cork-latex footbed with a cover sole made of breathable microfibre and the flexible EVA sole ensure maximum comfort. A footbed that is so convincing that its shape has not changed since its invention in 1774.

The classic two-slider for everyone as a designer model

No matter what you wear or who you are and what fashion style you wear: Arizona is universal. The two-sided tie is popular with children, ladies and gentlemen alike and always convinces whether you like it casual, striking or classic. The mule offers the best hold and comfortable wearing comfort and is suitable for everyday life, leisure or office. You can get this classic in many different colours – from trendy red to reserved brown, in shiny or matte. The variety is huge and has become even more so with the designer cooperation with the New York duo Proenza Schouler. The new unisex design, inspired by workwear, is intended for the urban context. One practical detail: the duo replaced the classic buckles of the "Arizona" and "Milano" model with Velcro fasteners. The models created in the joint project are available in the timeless colours black, white, ochre and silver. They are made of shiny Specchio calfskin, which comes from Proenza Schouler's past and present collections. Shortly before this collaboration, Birkenstock had already launched the new premium line "1774", under which all designer collaborations will be combined in the future. The three most classic styles Arizona, Milano and Siena shine in specially developed, powerful colours.
