1.Flexibility

When you walk, your foot flexes to support your body. The Birkenstock sole and cork footbed flex with your feet for comfort with every step. The raised toe bar encourages the natural gripping motion of your feet exercising your legs and increasing circulation.

2.Neutral Heel

Elevated heels cause the body to move out of alignment. With our neutral heel, the body weight is distributed more evenly across the foot and away from the ball of the foot. This encourages a healthy and more natural walking gait and adds to overall stability.

3.Room for Toes

A pointed or narrow toe box can cause discomfort and foot problems. The shape of the Birkenstock contoured footbed allows room for toes to move freely. This room also encourages the toes to flex and grip naturally and is part of the correct alignment for your feet.

4.Contoured Footbed

Our contoured footbed provides firm and orthopedically correct support for your feet. Proper arch support, a deep heel cup and adequate room in the toe area make up the footbed support. The shock absorbing sole is flexible, lightweight, durable and replaceable.

Do You Know Your Birkenstock Size Conversion?

2011-04-19T13:39:00.000-07:00

Find Your Correct Birkenstock Size

No other part of our body is subject to so much strain as our feet. They maintain our body's balance, absorb impacts and bear our entire body weight, so it's important to support the feet as well as possible. The secret of the special Birkenstock comfort is our unique fit, which means that it's essential your Birkenstock footwear fits you correctly.

Take Your Time

Sizes can vary between individual shoes. When you get the shoes or sandals home, try them on soft carpet. Before you stand up, make sure that there is a little room all around; your feet will expand and change size as you walk throughout your day.

Good quality leathers often feel stiff when you first put them on. Wear your new shoes at home for a few hours at a time for a while to let them soften and shape to your foot.

Frida Patent Clogs by Alegria - www.clog-heaven.com

Frida Kahlo Bio Courtesy of Wikipedia:

Frida Kahlo de Rivera (July 6, 1907 – July 13, 1954; born Magdalena Carmen Frida ^[2] Kahlo y Calderón)^[3] was a Mexican painter, born in Coyoacán.^[4] Perhaps best known for her self-portraits,^[5] Kahlo's work is remembered for its "pain and passion",^[6] and its intense, vibrant colors. Her work has been celebrated in Mexico as emblematic of national and indigenous tradition, and by feminists for its uncompromising depiction of the female experience and form.^[7]

Mexican culture and Amerindian cultural tradition figure prominently in her work, which sometimes has been characterized as Naïve art or folk art.^[8] Her work also has been described as "surrealist", and in 1938 one surrealist described Kahlo as a "ribbon around a bomb".^[7]

Kahlo had a stormy but passionate marriage with the prominent Mexican artist Diego Rivera. She suffered lifelong health problems, many of which stemmed from a traffic accident in her teenage years. These issues are reflected in her works, more than half of which are self-portraits of one sort or another. Kahlo suggested, "I paint myself because I am so often alone and because I am the subject I know best."^[9] She also stated, "I was born a bitch. I was born a painter."^[10]

Shoe Care Tips from Haflinger:

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

Indoor Boiled Wool Slippers
Machine wash warm with mild detergent on gentle cycle for 5 minutes. Machine dry gently for several minutes to release excess moisture. Stuff slipper with paper overnight and allow to air-dry.

Outdoor/Indoor Boiled Wool Slipper
Machine wash warm with mild detergent on gentle cycle for 5 minutes. Machine dry gently for several minutes to release excess moisture. Stuff slipper with paper overnight and allow to air-dry.

Wool Felt Grizzly
Wool Felt Upper - Use a soft brush to remove any dirt or debris that has accumulated. For heavier dirt build up, spot with a damp cloth and brush gently. We do not recommend that you apply chemicals or soaps to the wool felt-this could compromise the natural breathability and strength of the felt.

Cork Latex Footbed - If you intend to use the Grizzly in inclement weather conditions, we recommend that you use a cork protectant/sealant on the footbed at least once a year. This will help preserve the natural cork latex from breaking down prematurely.

Leather Clogs and Sandals
Leather Uppers - Uppers can be cleaned and treated with a leather cleaner/protectant suitable to the type of leather on the shoe (i.e. nubuk, smooth leather, etc.). Please be aware that applying liquid cleaners/protectants can sometimes affect the color, tone and texture of leather. We recommend that you test a small amount of cleaner/protectant on an inconspicuous area of the shoe before applying the product to the whole shoe. For dirt and debris accumulation, we recommend only the use of a soft brush to clean all leather uppers.

Cork Latex Footbed - If you intend to use the clogs in inclement weather conditions, we recommend that you use a cork protectant/sealant on the footbed at least once a year. This will help preserve the natural cork latex from breaking down prematurely.

Shearling Clogs
Shearling Uppers - We recommend that you treat shearling uppers with a mild protectant. If you do apply a protectant, we recommend that you test a small amount of protectant on an inconspicuous area of the shoe before applying the product allover. For dirt and debris accumulation, we recommend only the use of a soft brush to clean all shearling uppers.

Cork Latex Footbed - If you intend to use the clogs in inclement weather conditions, we recommend that you use a cork protectant/sealant on the footbed at least once a year. This will help preserve the natural cork latex from breaking down prematurely.

brand-new: the Birki's Disney Collection of sandals, clogs and shoes

2009-05-09T08:04:00.000-07:00

Walt Disney succeeded in captivating children and adults with his ideas and taking them to fantastic worlds. Today, there is hardly anybody who hasn't heard of Disney's biggest star: Mickey Mouse.

The element of fantasy has always played a major role in Birki's models. For this reason the new Birki's Disney Collection was developed at the beginning of the year.

The new collection shows Disney's best-known faces and of course includes the special Birki's comfort with the original Birkenstock® footbed, molded heel cup & toe bar.

Mickey, Minnie, and Pluto, Winnie the Pooh, Tigger and Jack Sparrow from Pirates of the Caribbean, they all adorn the models featuring cork-latex insoles such as Dorian, Ios, Guam, Woodby, Tahiti, and Salina as well as the ALPRO-foam sandal Aruba for adults and children.The collection is available immediately for adults and children in sizes 24 to 46 (depending on the model and design) at the online clog authority http://www.clog-heaven.com

classic pirate print now available in professional clogs

2008-07-23T19:41:00.000-07:00

So what, exactly, is it about skulls & crossbones?

Apparently, with fashion, it's the ability to unpretentiously tease about what a badass you are. There's just something to be said about wearing a skull and crossbones emblem that allows you to be a self-proclaimed rebel of sorts. Consider the Sanita pirate print professional clog - it's definitely not all frills and bows. The pirate print is edgy and just a bit rough and tough for that swashbuckling style without going overboard!

The dominance of pirate and nautical inspired fashion keeps coming back again and again. Take for example Jean Paul Gaultier’s runway at Paris Fashion Week, where again the pirate look dominated the collection. The show featured an array of pirate couture with pinstripe fabrics and the models with wild, untamed manes, their locks appearing as though they were tousled up by an ocean breeze.

British model Lily Cole donned a pirate’s outfit for the Jean Paul Gaultier spring/summer 2008 collection.

Everyone has a little bit of that pirateer spirit in them and what's a more fun way to show it than with a pair of pirate print clogs? Clogs never go out of style & coordinate with everything. Wear them to work with a pair of scrubs for a hip-professional look or on your day off to complement your trendy-chic style. Wear the same pair of clogs and dress a look up or down depending on your choice of clothing. You're the captain mapping out your own course in fashion -it's all up to you.

graffiti makes its way to fashion...in clogs

2008-07-02T09:21:00.000-07:00

If you're in one of the various avenues of the medical field & spend most of your day wearing institutional scrubs or a profession where a less than bland uniform is mandatory, you might be feeling short on style. And, if your idea of expressing yourself is not wearing patterned scrubs from head to toe, the Sanita 'Graffiti' clog is definitely the way to go. You look professional with just a hint of charachter & fun - not like you came to work for a pajama party!

Here's a little Graffiti 101;

"Graffiti is an element of every literate society. True, graffiti can express negative aspects of society such as hatred, racism, and harm to others ; however, keep in mind that graffiti also promotes ethnic unity, love, friendship, freedom from oppression, and diversity. Before forming a quick opinion the next time you see graffiti, take time to analyze the markings to reveal its value to someone other than yourself."
(Graffiti Definition: The Dictionary of Art
London:Macmillan Publishers (In Press). copyright 1996 Susan A. Phillips)

So, if you're into adding a little flair to your professional look give Sanita clogs a try.
After all, the Sanita company has been making Danish style clogs for over 100 years and they're still going strong. Keep this company in mind the next time you need a new pair of work clogs. With grafitti being the latest print, who knows what they'll come up with next? One thing I know for sure, I'm definitely going to stick around and find out!

Sanita professional clogs make perfect sense for everyone from medical and restaurant workers to school and airline staff to just about anyone who's on their feet all day. They're slip resistant, stylish and podiatrically correct at-work comfort clogs!

a recent fashion article recognizes the sexy sophistication of animal print

2008-05-03T09:06:00.000-07:00

AnimalPrints in Shoes & Bags
This Season’s Trend in Leopard, Zebra
& Pony Print Accessories © Gill Hart

Never straying too far from the fashion radar, leopard, cheetah, zebra and tiger prints are ultra big this season. Along with florals, animal prints have become less of a classic women's fashion staple and more mainstream, transcending from season to season. This season though it is not just about clothing. Whilst leopard print tops, skirts,swimsuits and dresses have always been a firm favorite with the fashion world, shoe and handbag designers have experienced the call of the wild. Bags, shoes, hats, scarves and belts are covered in the leopard, zebra and pony hair prints from this season. Jimmy Choo, Manolo Blahnik and Christian Louboutin all include animal prints in their recent shoe collections and Prada, Valentino, Tod's and Dolce and Gabbana offer some great purses.

Pony Prints

A new kid on the block is the zebra print, and pony hair featured in shoes and bags. Prada, Marc Jacobs, Valentino and Jimmy Choo have pounced on the trend.

Animal Print

Shoes from boots to courts and flats to wedges, there is no escaping the jungle influence. The benefit of animal print shoes is that they are almost like black shoes completely timeless, they match basically everything, and add a subdued elegance with a trendy hint. Christian Louboutin’s Rolando Leopard Print Shoes are a classic example of how stylist animal prints can
be. Not to mention Louboutin’s “Peanuts” animal wedges, fun and funky. Black and white zebra and pony prints give a new twist to the classic (and often saturated) leopard, these shoes are stylish and trendy.

how are clogs supposed to fit.........really?

2008-05-02T22:19:00.000-07:00

Open-Backed Clogs
Your heel should be at the very back of the clog (maybe even a slight bit over). In this way, you have the most secure fit and are best able to control your clog.

Closed-Back Clogs
These stylish clogs offer protection for the back of your foot and keep the clog from slipping off. However, these are clogs (not shoes!) and will come UP & DOWN on your foot. Accordingly, you need enough room behind your heel to move freely. (If you rub against the back, you will get blisters!)
