BIRKENSTOCK Join Forces With UNION For The Bimshire Hybrid Clog

BIRKENSTOCK has teamed up with UNION, the iconic LA-based menswear store, to release the highly anticipated Bimshire hybrid clog. This unique collaboration, spearheaded by UNION’s owner and creative director Chris Gibbs, blends elements of two perennial BIRKENSTOCK classics, the Boston and Zurich, to create a utilitarian and stylish new silhouette.

The Bimshire is a masterclass in craftsmanship, featuring smooth natural leather straps interwoven with BIRKENSTOCK’s signature buckles, enhanced with a special fabric-feel treatment. A tonal canvas panel trimmed with French piping adds texture, while a suede toe completes the hybrid’s clean yet rugged aesthetic. The anatomically-shaped footbed is lined with luxurious nappa leather, dyed in UNION’s signature orange, offering premium comfort. Designed in earthy tones of grey, taupe, and sandy pink, the clog pays homage to Gibbs’ Bajan roots with its affectionate name referencing Barbados.

Chris Gibbs, a long-time devotee of BIRKENSTOCK, brings personal history to the collaboration. From his teenage years in Ottawa to his evolution as a style icon, Gibbs has always regarded BIRKENSTOCK as a wardrobe staple. Now, this partnership marks a celebration of both his journey and the evolution of the footwear brand in the cultural zeitgeist.

Pre-launched at UNION stores and online, the BIRKENSTOCK x UNION Bimshire is now available globally , select BIRKENSTOCK locations, and premium retailers. This collection merges heritage and modernity, setting a new standard for casual footwear with a cultural twist.
