BIRKENSTOCK EXPANDS IN THE NETHERLANDS WITH A NEW RETAIL DESTINATION IN THE HEART OF THE HAGUE
LINZ AM RHEIN, Germany and THE HAGUE, Netherlands, June 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- BIRKENSTOCK introduced its second full-price store in the Netherlands. Following the successful debut of its first Dutch store in Amsterdam last year, the brand now turns to The Hague—connecting with a community that values authenticity and design. Located on Hoogstraat, in the heart of The Hague's prestigious royal shopping district, the new store offers a unique blend of historic charm and upscale retail for brand enthusiasts and new footbed lovers. The opening reaffirms the brand's commitment to bringing its values of tradition, quality, and function to life in the Netherlands. The new space marks the latest milestone in BIRKENSTOCK's strategic retail expansion across Europe, offering customers a firsthand experience of the legendary footbed and the brand's purpose-driven approach to footwear. A DESIGN ROOTED IN HERITAGE AND INNOVATION BIRKENSTOCK's unique two-level store draws subtle inspiration from the city's heritage. It blends the bold geometry and rich materials of early 20th-century Art Deco with the functional elegance of The Hague School (De Haagse School). Historic stained-glass windows—with their vivid colors and clean lines—embody a fusion of modernist ideals and traditional craftsmanship. The dazzling windows remain a testament to the era's artisanal craftsmanship, while the influence of the late 19th-century Dutch design movement—rooted in realism and minimalism—is equally evident. The store's interior reflects this blend of aesthetics and BIRKENSTOCK's signature simplicity and orthopedic legacy—honoring the city's distinct architectural language, while staying true to the brand's values of function, quality, and tradition. Wavelike, rounded walls and dark cork meet brushed steel accents, evoking the visual harmony of the footbed's silhouette and its natural materials, while taking cues from the production process. Walls with textured plaster, wooden floors, and natural materials like leather and cork underscore the brand's tactile authenticity. A key focal point of the store is a custom-designed stained-glass artwork above the entrance, paying tribute to The Hague's tradition of storytelling through light and color while narrating the legacy of the original BIRKENSTOCK footbed. Inside, storytelling continues through footbed-inspired railings and integrated display elements that showcase orthopedic innovation and product craftsmanship. The light-filled interior invites visitors to explore the brand's evolution. Eye-catching visuals, refined metal details, and curated lighting elevate the overall experience. Spanning 80 square meters on the ground floor and 50 square meters on the upper level, the store is designed to serve both loyal fans and a new generation of BIRKENSTOCK consumers. The ground floor houses the main product display and a sculptural cash desk. Upstairs, guests can discover and try on the collection while relaxing on a comfortable, oval-shaped seating element. The product offering includes signature styles like the ARIZONA, MADRID, and BOSTON, as well as closed-toe silhouettes and seasonal highlights. Shoppers will find the Exquisite collection, Big Buckle styles, water-friendly EVA options, and selections for home and kids. A full range of shoe care products and flexible footbeds—including the Footbed Full Length for Sneakers—round out the offering. The footcare line, CARE ESSENTIALS, inspires to explore BIRKENSTOCK's expertise in foot health beyond footwear. BUILDING ON A NEW CHAPTER IN THE NETHERLANDS With this new retail space, BIRKENSTOCK brings its footbed to The Hague's vibrant scene and invites visitors to experience the brand firsthand—connecting with both loyal customers and new communities alike. This opening builds on BIRKENSTOCK's growing presence in the Benelux region. After taking over direct operations in the Netherlands, the brand continues to strengthen its connection with the local market—ensuring its values of quality, function, and innovation are reflected in every touchpoint. This strategic move is part of a broader initiative to enhance BIRKENSTOCK's retail presence while fostering closer ties with partners, customers, and brand lovers. By embedding its principles into local environments, BIRKENSTOCK continues to inspire humans to "walk as nature intended" across some of Europe's most inspiring cities. BIRKENSTOCK currently operates 40 own stores in Europe, including its latest addition in The Hague.

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. Available at and selected retailers for RM359.
