Firm Support For Your Feet
It would make sense
to think that a softer and more "cushiony" shoe would be more
comfortable. But in fact, the Birkenstock concept of comfort is
based on firm, orthopedically correct support. As with a quality
mattress, feet require solid support and correct positioning in
order to give us maximum comfort and health. The footbed features
proper arch support, deep heel cup, and adequate room in the toe
area — all to help distribute weight evenly over the entire foot.
The result is improved posture and balance for greater comfort when
walking.
Our Contoured Footbed Encourages
Foot Health
The Birkenstock
footbed is made of resilient cork/latex and is shaped to create a
healthy walking environment for your feet. Additionally, the
cork/latex blend is pliable and reacts to natural body warmth.
Therefore, over time, the footbed yields to the characteristics of
an individual foot just as the foot yields to the healthy shape of
our contoured footbed. Many long-term Birkenstock wearers find that
the longer you wear them, the more comfortable they become |
