European legacy brand Birkenstock have always walked a path of their own. Their signatures so strong and evident, they’re a mainstay no matter the collaborator—even with one with an imprint as strong as Fear of God’s. Next in line is UNITED ARROWS’ subsidiary BEAUTY&YOUTH. They’re no greenhorn in the collaborative space either having lent their touch to other big names like Reebok and their Classic Leather.

Together, the two parties work on another footwear staple just in time for the warmer months ahead. The Arosa sandals arrive with its hallmark big buckle design. Its construction formed with a Birkenstock’s signature cork soles, along with a “Taupe” suede upper. Contrary to other models, the footbed arrives in black matching the outsole underfoot, hiding the footprints that commonly marks the insoles.

They’re currently available for pre-order on UNITED ARROWS for JPY21,300 (~US$175).
