Birkenstock has been crafting quality footwear since the 1700s. Its loyal fanbase has only grown recently, with its sandals becoming a staple in fashion-forward closets worldwide. Fueling this ascent are notable collaborations, with Concepts being one of the premium streetwear brands to join forces with the German legend. The pair will drop a collection centered around the Kyoto silhouette this October, building on previous relationships.
The latest Concepts x Birkenstock collaboration reimagines the Kyoto silhouette in a delightful five-piece collection. The focal material of this ensemble is a plush felt that gracefully covers the main strap. Complementing this felt strap are vegetable-tanned leather accents, bringing a rustic elegance to the mix. Each variant within the collection showcases a monochrome shade on the felt, ensuring wearers enjoy a sophisticated yet minimalist vibe. Both Concepts and Birkenstock have their branding embossed onto the leather strap, an emblem of the partnership's dedication to quality and design. Beneath the foot, the signature cork footbed offers the comfort Birkenstock wearers have come to love. Rounding off the design, all sandals in the series boast a pristine white outsole, except for the black colorway, which opts for a matching black base.
The Concepts x Birkenstock Kyoto Collection will release October 27, 2023, exclusively through Concepts online and in-store. Priced at $190, this collection will be available in unisex sizes.
