Birki's Footwear 'Nature Trail' Campaign Highlights Eco-friendly Production, Vegan Clogs and Sandals and Green Commitment

Petaluma, CA (PRWEB) April 2, 2008 -- Birki's (http://www.birki.us), a leading brand of German-made comfort sandals and clogs (http://www.birki.us/shoes-sandals-clogs/us/aboutus_madeingermany.html) for the entire family, is proud to proclaim its commitment to environmental responsibility. As illustrated through its recently-released "Nature Trail" campaign, which includes an expanded collection of Vegan footwear, Birki's highlights no less than eight operational components that help minimize the company's impact on the environment.

"From day one of our existence, our commitment has been to provide comfortable, healthy footwear through manufacturing procedures that maximize resources and minimize waste," said Stefan Simon, Birki's brand director at company headquarters in Vettelschoss, Germany. "Even our partners and suppliers in Germany are chosen with top ecological standards in mind."

For years Birki's has been associated with "Green" thinking and the correlation is more than appropriate. From solvent-free production and use of solar and recycled energy to recycling excess materials and creating biological communities, ecological responsibility is a focal point of the company.

To celebrate its commitment to the environment, Birki's has expanded its line of Vegan clogs and sandals to include exciting new styles and colors. Vegan articles boast upper materials made of synthetic fleece called Birko-flor and footbed liners made of microfiber. Water-soluble adhesives are also used. All articles feature the Birki's footbed, famous for its arch support and for promoting and maintaining proper foot health and posture.

"To Birki's long-time customers, our Eco-friendly production (http://www.birki.us/shoes-sandals-clogs/us/aboutus_ecology.html)and Green ideals are well known," said Matt Hundley, marketing communications manager at Birki's. "Our great story should be heard by more than just our dedicated following. We're proud of the many steps we have in place to minimize resources and impact, which makes us feel good about the product we create and sell around the world."

Birki's is a recognized leader in manufacturing quality, comfortable footwear for any professional or leisure time occasion. An independent company distributed through L+L Logic and Logistics LP, Birki's and Birki-Kids are quality shoes made in Germany, helping feet achieve proper health and growth. With world headquarters in Vettelschoss, Germany and U.S. headquarters in Petaluma, CA, Birki's and Birki-Kids are sold through retailers and wholesalers in more than 85 countries worldwide, including the U.S., Canada, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Hong and all of Europe.
