Birkenstock 1774 lends a minimalist note to its signature Madrid sandals – conceived in 1963 – with this all-black pair. They’re crafted in the label's native Germany from smooth leather with a logo-engraved metal buckle and set on a comfortable moulded footbed designed by Konrad Birkenstock in 1897.
With its famously comfortable soft cork footbed, the 250-year old Birkenstock brand is enjoying a new wave of popularity, with its Boston suede clogs, Madrid and Arizona sandals stealing the spotlight thanks to cosy shearling and big buckle iterations.
