BIRKENSTOCK Steps It Up With The New Papillio FLORIDA Platform
Celebrating its rich archive, BIRKENSTOCK strides confidently into the spring/summer season, offering a fresh take on the iconic FLORIDA sandal and its timeless three-strap silhouette.
Staying true to BIRKENSTOCK's heritage, the FLORIDA blends craftsmanship and function, making it the ultimate summer essential.
Drawing on over 250 years of shoemaking expertise, BIRKENSTOCK shines extra light on the FLORIDA, an airy, feminine classic first introduced in 1981 by Karl Birkenstock.
A staple in the BIRKENSTOCK archive, the FLORIDA, known for its versatility and distinctive aesthetics, returns in a fresh lineup with playful new executions blending vibrant colours, innovative materials, refined craftsmanship and lasting functionality.
This reinvigoration reaffirms BIRKENSTOCK's commitment to fine-strap models, positioning the FLORIDA as a sophisticated, summery alternative to iconic styles like the ARIZONA.
With elegantly refined straps, a range of new materials, and fresh summer-ready shades like Pure Sage and Sandcastle, the FLORIDA seamlessly integrates into modern wardrobes. At its core remains BIRKENSTOCK's anatomically shaped footbed, the hallmark of the brand that provides unmatched support for all-day wear.
BIRKENSTOCK's premium line, 1774, has reinterpreted the archive classic FLORIDA with unexpected materials over recent seasons, in pastel-coloured suede, embossed leather, faux snakeskin looks, and transparent PVC, showcasing its versatility across luxury and everyday wear.
While MADRID, ARIZONA and BOSTON are well-established staples, the FLORIDA now takes centre stage with a sleeker outline and flowing form. Spring/Summer '25 marks the perfect moment to refresh and expand FLORIDA's presence in the BIRKENSTOCK collection. The latest reinterpretation honours FLORIDA's rich history and refined shape while highlighting it as a modern icon.
The FLORIDA stands as a key style for BIRKENSTOCK's Spring/Summer '25 collection, its thin-strapped design offering a feminine and contemporary alternative to BIRKENSTOCK's established sandal icons like the ARIZONA.
The Papillio FLORIDA Platform, crafted from high-quality, ultra-lightweight EVA, brings a bold, playful, and youthful edge to the lineup. Designed for all-day wear, it features an anatomically shaped footbed for optimal comfort and support. The new platform flex outsole offers improved flexibility and a wider heel section for better stability and balanced weight distribution, while the horizontal grooves at the forefoot enhance the natural rolling motion of the foot.
Shock-absorbent, water-resistant, and skin-friendly, the Papillio FLORIDA Platform is perfect for the beach, the garden, or spa settings, yet equally at home in fashion-forward street style. It's offered in a fresh seasonal palette of Surf Green, Crocus, Black, and Eggshell, making it a standout choice for those who seek both comfort and elevated style.
Step into a new era of FLORIDA, where timeless craftsmanship meets modern versatility, designed for footbed lovers and new BIRKENSTOCK fans alike.

Tiger's son Charlie Woods captures first junior crown

(EPA Images pic) FLORIDA : Charlie Woods, the 16-year-old son of 15-time major winner Tiger Woods, won his first American Junior Golf Association (AJGA) title on Wednesday, taking a three-stroke victory in Florida. The younger Woods fired a six-under par 66 final round to capture the Team TaylorMade Invitational at Streamsong Resort Black course, finishing on 15-under 201. It was the first victory in five AJGA starts for Charlie Woods, who fired eight birdies and two bogeys in the final round but closed with four consecutive pars to seal the triumph in the top US junior series. A field of 71 included four of the nation's five top-ranked juniors and 60 of the top 100. Woods was 606th in AJGA rankings but is expected to leap into the top 15 after the win. Charlie Woods would be able to have talks with college coaches next month even though he wouldn't be joining university teams before 2027 if then. Woods was playing on a sponsor invitation in the event but will be exempt for AJGA invitationals the rest of this season. Woods, who has won other age-group events, failed in an attempt to qualify for the US Open earlier this month.

BIRKENSTOCK 1774 Drops The Very Cosy Arizona CosNy & We're Vibing
A sandal so cool, it's a scandal! BIRKENSTOCK 1774 deepens its tradition of reinvented classics with the Arizona CosNy in Nylon – a monochromatic variation of the iconic silhouette reimagined by BIRKENSTOCK's Paris-based creative studio in charge of the seasonal 1774 collections and brand collaborations.

Honouring the familiarity of Arizona through amplified proportions, the Arizona CosNy embodies a refined versatility at the brand's core.

Originally debuted by Karl Birkenstock in 1973, Arizona was the 3rd model to be introduced and has become a cultural pillar of ease and practicality ever since. Enhanced with attentively-sourced Italian nylon, the Arizona CosNy collection emulates time-honoured craftsmanship and avant-garde technology. This specially-engineered material ensures adaptability and introduces a new level of sophistication to the signature design. Smoothly wrapping around the foot, the nylon straps are wadded and lined with microfibre for an ultra-soft wear. Featuring a hook and loop closure, this style offers a more personalised fit, easily adjusting to fit both wide and narrow sizes. The Arizona CosNy is available in a kaleidoscope of pop colours and crafted with the house's signature anatomically-shaped footbed that is fully covered in matching premium nappa leather. 1774 celebrates the BIRKENSTOCK archive through the transformation of its most legendary silhouettes.
