Enhance Your Post-Workout Regimen with Sports Recovery Shoes
At Birkenstock, we place equal weight on both, style and comfort. While our styles are contemporary and minimal, it’s the special engineering that makes a Birkenstock sandal stand out. Apart from a new found meaning of comfort, focused solutions make our footwear special. Have you ever experienced sore muscles after an active workout or a long stretch of running? After engaging in strenuous activity, it is also important to give your body all the time and resources to get back to its normal state. This recovery can be supported with stretching, muscle treatment, a good diet, and hydration. Birkenstock adds another dimension, often overlooked: firm footwear. Birkenstock brings you a collection of sports recovery footwear to add an extra layer of comfort and speed to your recovery process.
The Principles of Recovery
At Birkenstock, we believe in an active approach to recovery. While traditional methods involve a passive approach of rest and extra cushioning, Birkenstock believes in initiating the body’s adaptive responses, reducing the proneness to injury, and promoting muscular benefits. We make not just great footwear but also promote good foot health and provide specialized solutions, too. Our recovery philosophy is:
1. Firm not Foam: The arches on the firm footbed support your weight and spread it out evenly.
2. Cork not Cushion: The natural cork footbed provides balance, support, flexibility, and shock absorption.
3. Stable not Squishy: Our stable footbed encourages a good stance by giving your toes enough room, which improves your natural walking motion and blood flow.
The Birkenstock Footbed
Birkenstock sandals are designed to aid you in the process of recovery after a great running or workout session. Muscles must regain their natural relaxed state, which the legendary Birkenstock footbed aids. Inspired by the natural footprint on fine sand, the footbed mimics the soles of the feet with its deep heel cup to nestle the heel comfortably. The traverse and longitudinal arch supports provide a base for the middle curve of your feet. The roomy toe box has enough space for the toes to stay in place with ease. The footbed promotes good foot health. It restores and assists the rolling motion of walking and helps you maintain a natural stance even during movement. The rises and indentations ensure that your feet are always at rest, no matter what you are doing. Made from cork and latex and lined with comfortable materials, the footbed is the heart of the Birkenstock recovery models. Though all our styles feature the footbed, we offer you our ultimately comfortable and timeless classics to help you stay effortlessly stylish and at ease through the recovery mode.
