Go Inside Birkenstock's Immersive 'Hourglass' Exhibition
For close to 250 years (!), Birkenstock has given us reliable, comfortable footwear. The Arizona, Boston, Mayari, Gizeh, Kyoto, and more have been worn by people from all walks of life, becoming a symbol of timeless fashion and unmatched comfort.
The journey to today has been a long one, and the German shoe manufacturer wants to take us through all of it—with an exhibition. We all know that Birkenstock has always been associated with quality and tradition, but this exhibition explores its history through a captivating visual timeline. From its humble beginnings to its current status as an iconic brand, you'll learn all you need to know about Birkenstock.
Birkenstock's commitment to craftsmanship is another focal point of the exhibition. There was also a preview of the brand's newest collections like the Zürich model which "combines the stability of a closed-toe shoe with the lightness of sandal."
The Birkenstock Hourglass Exhibition: Manila ran from October 9 to 15. If you missed all the fun, we've got photos from the inside the space here. Take a look below.
