Birkenstock has released three new color options for its Uerzell sneaker mule. The hybrid footwear, originally unveiled in 2025, is now available in Cuoio, Caccia, and Wine colorways.
Why it matters
The release continues the development of the 1774 line, which merges traditional clog aesthetics with performance-inspired lace-up sneaker elements. These additions aim to maintain momentum for a design created by high-fashion shoe designer Thibo Denis.
The Uerzell sneaker mule retails for $395 and features a signature cork midsole paired with a bone-pattern outsole. The shoes are now available for purchase globally.
