Birkenstocks for Fall and Winter

People may think that if it’s made by Birkenstock it must be a sandal. And while there are many Birkenstock sandals to choose from, the company does offer other styles of shoes. As fall and winter weather approaches, let’s take a look at some of their closed-toe shoe options. They’re made with the same quality materials and construction and provide the style and comfort you’ve come to expect from Birkenstock. 

First up, Birkenstock’s Papillio Mary Natural Leather Clogs. If you love the look of clogs but would like to add a bit of extra height, these may be the shoes for you. The Mary is a good style for transitioning from season to season. Wear it as a sandal on warm days and add tights or socks for colder weather. The cork and latex molded footbed lined with suede offers all-day Birkenstock comfort.

For a different take on a clog, check out the Birkenstock Papillio Fanny Suede Leather Clogs. It’s the love child of a wedge and the Birkenstock Boston. Use the buckle to adjust the shoe to your favored level of comfort and security. Like all Birkenstocks, the contoured footbed will mold itself to the shape of your foot for added support. And like the Mary, it can be worn with or without socks or tights.

Birkenstock’s Tracy Shoes combine a ballet flat with a Mary Jane. And this is a flat with a difference. Hidden within is the classic Birkenstock footbed with its support and stability plus the Tracy offers better traction than many flats, thanks to the lightweight EVA sole. If you need a closed-toe shoe with a back for work or you’re looking for a more finished yet comfortable look, try the Tracy. 

Birkenstock is very inventive with clogs. Their newest creation is the Buckley. Made of suede leather, it’s a moccasin-style that’s easily slipped on and off. The buckle adds a retro touch and can be used to loosen or tighten the shoe to your personal level of comfort. The Buckley will happily go to work, school, or out to run errands but true to its moccasin roots, it’s a homebody as well. 

And let’s not forget the guys. The Birkenstock Men's Boston Shearling Clogs combine the warmth and comfort of a slipper with an EVA sole that can boldly go out into the world. The shearling adds extra warmth and cushion, and along with the adjustable strap, make the Boston Shearling an unusually comfortable shoe. Made of quality materials and with Birkenstock’s supportive footbed, these clogs are ready to go the distance. 

And finally, at Whole Earth you’ll also find Birkenstock Cork Sealant and the Birkenstock Deluxe Shoe Care Kit. Apply a thin coat of Cork Sealant when the cork begins to look dull. The Deluxe Shoe Care Kit includes Cork Sealant as well as a cleaner, a stain remover and brush. Extend the life of your Birkenstocks with a little TLC!
