At least since Sarah Jessica Parker’s appearance in Birkenstock sandals on the set of the SATC successor “And Just Like That” it has been clear: the health slippers from back then have long since developed into an absolute it-piece. In addition to well-established classics, two new sandal trends await us in 2023.

The “anatomically shaped insole with special support elements” has been in use since the 1930s – and is still the trademark of the shoe manufacturer. In addition to the high wearing comfort, the now very modern and individual styles from Birkenstock have contributed to the fact that sandals in particular have become a must-have in summer.
