Birkenstock introduces a look at the Shinjuku sandals, which are named and inspired by the bustling Tokyo neighborhood. The area is known for its bright neon accents and ironically enough, the sandals have a neutral tonal palette. It comes in a white, black, or camel brown palette and is prepared for the urban summer experience.
The upper boasts a technical webbing detail for a slightly militaristic look and this webbing replaces the classic Birkenstock straps over the foot and heel section. Other details include the quick-open and rust-proof buckles along the straps, which can be adjusted. It all rests on top of a chunky sole unit that is made to drain water quickly and combats the outdoors with traction.
