Manolo Blahnik x Birkenstock

Something regal is coming from Manolo Blahnik. The designer has teamed up with Birkenstock to create a crystallised capsule of the classic German sandal. It’s the epitome of fashion meets function.

“Birkenstocks have been in my wardrobe since the very beginning (of time!!) I have loved and worn mine for many years. I am thrilled that we have been able to collaborate, fusing the Manolo Blahnik aesthetic with the everyday comfort of Birkenstocks is simply wonderful!” said the eponymous shoe designer.

The first release drops March 24 on 1774.com, manoloblahnik.com as well as Manolo Blahnik retail locations and selected retailers worldwide. It doesn’t end there, stay tuned, because a second drop of styles will also be arriving come June.

Why It Is Important to Shop Less and Shop Quality

We have all heard the saying "quality over quantity." Which would you choose when it comes to shopping? It seems Gen Z, Gen Alpha and Beta are all about sustainability, clean planet and reducing the waste.

Shopping quality falls into the category of waste reduction, because we shop less but buy more durable, good fabric product. Products last longer and more likely to resell. It's important to buy fewer, high-quality items than it is to buy a lot of low end items. Not only will you save money in the long run, but you'll also be happier with your purchases.

Saves money in the long run

Buying fewer but better-quality items can save you money in the long run. Not only will these things last longer, but shopping less frequently means there is less opportunity for impulse purchases and other mistakes (such as buying something that doesn't fit). If you're looking to save some cash, consider shopping less but shopping quality instead of quantity.

Reduce waste

Reducing carbon footprint is important for the future of our planet. Shopping for higher-quality items means they last longer and are more likely to be recycled or resold when no longer needed, which reduces waste in landfills. You'll also reduce your carbon footprint by shopping less often - each time you make a purchase, energy is used from the manufacturing process and transportation of goods to get them into stores.

You'll be happier with your purchases

When we buy something new, it's exciting. But that excitement can fade quickly if the item doesn't last long or doesn't fit our needs. By buying fewer, higher-quality items, we're more likely to be happy with our purchases and use them for a longer period of time.

Consider these reasons when making your next purchase.
