🩴 About Footprints by Birkenstock

Footprints by Birkenstock is (or was) a line of casual, everyday shoes offered under the Birkenstock name — typically leather lace-ups, loafers, Mary Janes, slip-ons, and other closed-toe casual styles. These are not the classic open sandals most people associate with Birkenstock, but they still use Birkenstock’s anatomically supportive footbed design.

These styles were widely sold as comfort casual shoes and are now often only found used or in older stock listings, because the Footprints sub-line has been discontinued or is rarely available new directly from Birkenstock.

They were made with Birkenstock comfort and cork-footbed support, but often had a shallower footbed or different construction compared with classic cork sandals, according to owners of the shoe.
