Birkenstock Boston Suede Leather

Suede: Leather with a characteristic brushed finish and a soft, velvety texture. Unlike smooth leather, it is produced from the inside of the leather, which gives the material an unmistakable softness and suppleness. The main advantages of suede footwear include high breathability and the ability to adapt quickly to the anatomical shape of the foot, making the shoes comfortable from the first wear. Suede stands out for its depth of colour and gives the shoes a premium look. In order for the material to retain its properties and beauty, regular impregnation is recommended to ensure protection against moisture and dirt.

Natural cork: In the midsole, it represents an eco-friendly cutting edge with unique functional properties. This sustainable material excels in its natural ability to absorb shock and insulate heat, ensuring an optimal climate inside the shoe. A key advantage is its shape memory - the cork adapts individually to the anatomy of the foot over time, providing unrivalled personalised support. It is lightweight, breathable and, thanks to its antibacterial properties, keeps the shoes fresh even during the rigours of all-day wear.

EVA: The most widely used cushioning material in the footwear industry worldwide. It is a lightweight, elastic polymer that is inserted in the form of foam into the midsoles of sports and leisure shoes. This foam contains thousands of microscopic air bubbles that act as miniature shock absorbers. The EVA material is especially valued for its ability to effectively absorb shock on impact while providing a soft, comfortable feel with every step. Its versatility has made it the standard from which all modern cushioning systems are derived.
