This is a very famous brand. They have a rich heritage and a real passion for their shoes.
Birkenstock USA was founded over 40 years ago; founded in 1966. The original family of shoemakers started making shoes over 230 years ago. The shoe's we have come to know and buy today were invented and manufactured in Germany by Konrad Birkenstock in 1897.
They Feature a wider look from other sandals.. unlike some shoes that compress your toes, these are built to follow the natural shape and contours of your foot.
They are designed with orthopedics in mind. This is why they are known to be much more comfortable and offer greater support for your foot.
They are also a very 'green' company for those of you that care about that type of thing. You can read all about their processes and materials here that are environmently friendly: Birkenstock's are Green!
Because they are made with top quality materials, they will last a long time. They are durable. So you may pay a little more, but it'll be well worth it because they'll last a lot longer.
That's always how I justify investing in a better shoe. I don't have to buy a new pair every few months!
They can be found at the net's most popular shoe store:
