Double Tap to Zoom

Believe it or not, people have been knocking around in Birkenstocks since 1774. While they weren’t coupling suede Bostons with chunky socks and Carhartt double-knees, it’s still wild to think that these simple sandals have endured for so long, barely changing while trends, wars, full cultural movements, and multiple generations come and go. Birkenstock 1774 is the brand’s offshoot in honor of this impressively long run.

While mainline Birkenstocks are some of our favorite kicks for summer, Birkenstock 1774 is like the VIP area of our favorite bar. It’s familiar, just everything is done with a little more refinement: the seats are made from grained Italian leather, the glasses come frosted, and the barman is more polite.

Forget the metaphors. In terms of actual sandals, we’re talking about all your go-to Birkenstock silhouettes reimagined by designers like Jil Sander, Proenza Schouler, Manolo Blahnik, Stüssy, and more. But alongside the collaborations, Birkenstock 1774 is home to some exclusive Birkenstock updates, too.

Below, we’ve rounded up some of the best Birkenstock 1774 Arizona Sandals available right now. Each pair features high-end materials and craftsmanship, exemplifying the true extent of expertise that the German brand has cultivated over almost 250 years in business.
