Comfy just got cooler
MANILA, Philippines - Half a century ago, you couldn’t call yourself cool or hip without owning a pair of Birkenstock shoes. In the ‘80s, Birkenstocks caught on with medical professionals who were always on their feet, and in the ‘90s, Generation X staked their own claim on the enduring German brand.
Known for being eco-friendly long before it was “in,” Birkenstock continues using premium quality, natural, renewable, recyclable, and naturally-insulating material. Its renowned cork soles are made from cork oak trees — fashioned out of bark, which is removed and allowed to regenerate.
And now Birkenstock is even more fun with Papillio, its latest colorful and fashionable fashion line that features the original Birkenstock footbed. Birkenstock Papillio footwear are unlike its peers in that they are funkier and more fun in original prints and textures while retaining the exclusive Birkenstock footbed designed for maximum comfort and correct posture when standing or walking. Papillio clogs and sandals are styled with each pair reflecting a splash of hip and trendiness that appeal to current fashions. 2012 Collection styles like Gizeh, Rom, Turin, Java, and Madrid are becoming fast favorites.
In the Philippines the Birkenstock lines are available at Level M2 TriNoma Mall, Level 2 Glorietta 3, Teens and Kids’ Zone at Level 3 in Glorietta 3, the Upper Ground Floor of the Alabang Town Center, and Via Venetto at Level 2 SM Megamall and Level 1 Glorietta 5.
