Birkenstocks x Birkin

Focus | SYSTEM Cycle | TECHNICAL X1 | MAINTAIN Business Model | PRODUCT ORIENTED Material Flow | LINEAR

The Birkinstocks are made with original Birkin bags, which are first disassembled, then flat. Then the model is cut from this Birkin skin and assembled together with a Birkenstock cork footbed and rubber sole. Because the process begins with a single Birkin bag, each pair of Birkinstocks is a single custom-made item and they are sold on demand.
