For the fall/winter 2025 season, BIRKENSTOCK is further expanding its collection of closed shoes alongside established silhouettes like UTTI and BEND. With the JACKSON 2.0, HIGHWOOD WATERPROOF, and BIRMINGHAM MOC models, the brand is launching a generation of new boots that combine functionality, craftsmanship, and a contemporary, architecture-inspired look based on the principle of foot health.
For over 250 years, BIRKENSTOCK has stood for the principle that shoes should support the natural movement of the foot. The signature and unique technology of the Original BIRKENSTOCK footbed has made the brand world-renowned and continues to maintain its exceptional status. Now, BIRKENSTOCK is implementing its orthopedic expertise in the next generation of everyday boots, which, with the innovative DEEP BLUE FOOTBED, promise maximum freedom of movement and healthy movement patterns for every day. The “blue footbed” ensures even weight distribution, supports the natural rolling motion of the foot and provides sufficient space.
A DETAIL VIEW OF THE NEW BOOTS
JACKSON 2.0 – A CLASSIC REDEFINED
The JACKSON 2.0 is an innovative interpretation of the classic winter lace-up boot with its distinctive look that can be integrated into existing looks and styles in a variety of ways. The functional D-ring and hook lacing system is particularly noteworthy, giving the model a particularly striking appearance. The materials reflect an uncompromising commitment to quality: The upper is a mix of high-quality suede and oiled leather, combined with a padded shaft and a soft nappa leather tongue.
HIGHWOOD WATERPROOF – FOR URBAN ADVENTURERS
The HIGHWOOD WATERPROOF is visually understated and therefore proves to be a timeless all-rounder that can be combined in a variety of ways. It impresses with functional features, above all its water resistance, which makes it a reliable companion for the most demanding weather conditions. A waterproof membrane for the inner lining, hydrophobic, grained leather for the upper, and water-repellent laces form an unbeatable trio against wet conditions. The outsole provides unrivaled comfort and optimal foot support.
BIRMINGHAM MOC – HANDCRAFTED TRADITION, MODERNLY INTERPRETTED
The BIRMINGHAM MOC impresses with its visual sophistication, based on first-class craftsmanship, and its excellent comfort. Crafted from high-quality Horween cowhide, the boot features visible moccasin-style stitching and contrasting metal eyelets. Its open construction without inner lining promises optimal breathability and flexibility. Particularly durable laces and an outsole from the BIRKENSTOCK Professional line make it a reliable companion for long days on your feet.
FROM TRADITION TO THE FUTURE – BIRKENSTOCK AND THE CLOSED SHOE
Although BIRKENSTOCK is now known worldwide, especially for sandals and clogs, the brand’s origins lie in closed shoes. True to its guiding principle of „Celebrating the archive – building the archive,“ BIRKENSTOCK is returning to its roots with its expansion into boots and lace-up shoes, blending classic silhouettes with modern performance. With the JACKSON 2.0, HIGHWOOD WATERPROOF, and BIRMINGHAM MOC models, the brand once again underscores its position as a global innovation leader in the industry: with timeless design language, outstanding functionality, and authentic craftsmanship, made for walking as nature intended.
