BIRKENSTOCK has released its Spring/Summer 2024 Collection

BIRKENSTOCK has released its Spring/Summer 2024 Collection, complete with vibrant new colours, fabrics, and silhouettes.

True to the BIRKENSTOCK pioneering DNA, the collection celebrates its rich archive and explores the new, while staying true to the brand’s core – the original BIRKENSTOCK footbed. 

The SS24 seasonal collection presents a fresh take on some of the most iconic BIRKENSTOCK styles—reimagined for the summer months, with updates in innovative materials, and a bright new spectrum of colours – an ode to the season’s vivid hues. 

New silhouettes and textures set the footbed in a new context, boasting features such as the exquisite footbed, beautiful big buckles, vibrant rainbow shimmer, and an upgraded braided detail, adding a feminine touch to classic suede styles. 

The collection is a testament to BIRKENSTOCK’s fundamental values – function, quality, and its celebrated premium footwear experience. 

Materials

This season highlights new leather textures, such as Shiny Lizard – a playful lizard-embossed synthetic material delivering just the right amount of sheen. Handmade suede braided leather details add a feminine touch to selected suede styles. Saffiano, featuring a refined crosshatch pattern with a luxurious leather feel, is introduced for men in new roast and stone coin colours.

New summer shades

Reminiscent of long summer days, the new collection features a palette of eye-catching colour. The classic EVA material has been reimagined in Fondant Pink, Elemental Blue, Surf Green, and Roast – these versatile tones add a new dimension to any summer look. Some of BIRKENSTOCK’s most timeless silhouettes – Arizona, Madrid and Gizeh are now available in Green Tea, Candy Pink, Berry Crush, Surf Green and New Beige. To make a statement, eye-catching hues like Crocus and Green Tea have now been added to the popular High Shine Collection.
