Birkenstock's Bestseller: Simple, Functional, Refined
The collaborative sandals are based on Birkenstock's classic style, featuring a 2.5cm platform sole. The footbed color is unified with the upper and sole, creating sophisticated designs in all-black and all-white. The "BIRKENSTOCK for Y's" logo is embossed on the rear side of the footbed.

Second Collaboration: "Y's×New Era® 59FIFTY™"
The "59FIFTY™," born in 1954, is known as the cap worn by Major League Baseball players during games, with all processes except for embroidery and eyelet punching done by hand using high-quality wool. This second collaboration between Y's and New Era® uses silver thread for the front embroidery and shifts the Y's logo off-center to the side, expressing the essence of "Y's." They will be available at Y's shops nationwide.
