About Trippen Shoes - A Debut in Berlin / Germany with an Idea

Trippen shoes are niche products that are seen as works of highly impressive craftsmanship. The shoes’ appearance contain pieces of extraordinary detail. They have, for example, transversal zippers or sometimes double (or even threefold) layers of leather. Other brands only have shoelaces for this part of their shoes, and don’t have nearly this much detail. This level of detail was exactly what the two company founders, Angela Spieth and Micheal Oehler, wanted for their shoes. From the very beginning, their goal was to create new and unique shoes. A durable and cleanly manufactured shoe needed to be the end result. Both company founders came up with this plan by visiting a shoe performance factory in 1992. They worked meticulously, creating their vision for the next few months and years, inspired by old wooden soles from the 70s. Their efforts were finally rewarded when the first 60 models were presented. After that, they immediately received orders for shows from Wolfgang Joop and Claudia Skoda.

Trippen and Berlin – Real Love Since 1992

Since the founding of Trippen, the shoe manufacturer has always been closely linked to the city of Berlin. That is why it's not surprising that the first collection of Trippen was presented in the Berlin arcade. Berlin is still the centre of Trippen today. Trippen has moved a lot of times over the years, but it has always been loyal to the capital of Germany. The Trippen outlet and the administrative building are still located in Berlin, although production is now located in the city of Zehdenick. In 2014, Trippen moved into new offices, studios, and showroom at the Treptower Park in Berlin. Trippen also runs its flagship store at the "Hackeschen Hoefe" beside the Trippen Outlet. Although you probably won't make a trip to the Berlin outlet, our selection of Trippen shoes are available anytime directly to you at our Online-Shop with sometimes reduced Sale-Offers like in that Outlet.

Unique and straight design - not following any mainstream

The philosophy of Trippen has many parallels with Berlin. Trippen shoes don’t feel the need to be everyone’s favourite. They have a unique and straight design, and they don't sell themselves to the mainstream. And what about the prototypical old Berlin? The city has always been forthright, sometimes too much, but always honest and reliable. Berlin was known for these characteristics even before it turned into the trendy metropolis that we all know today. Maybe that's why Trippen found their place in Berlin, because the shoes match the city.

Trippen Shoes from the Current and New Collections – Always Available Online at Mbaetz.com

Unlike other shoe manufacturers, Trippen doesn't change its entire collection every year. Instead, the whole selection of Trippen shoes is a combination of models from current, new collections together with Trippen shoes that have been available for years, real classics. Because of this, you can find every Trippen shoe from every past season whenever you need right here on Mbaetz. With our special partnership with the brand from Berlin, we can offer models online which are not currently stocked at our local store. Our large variety of Trippen shoes available on our online store are obtained directly from Trippen. We offer you a unique variety of current collections and numerous classics of Trippen shoes that rarely found anywhere else.

The new Autumn-collection with many trippen shoes made exclusively for MBaetz

Discover the new autumn collection - with wonderful colours and of course the classic shoes from trippen in black. We are very delighted to present now latest trippen autumn collection in our range. After the spring collection, which was almost unusually colourful for trippen, the current autumn collection also brings wonderful colours into your shoe cupboard. Trippen shoes in red, green or brown are part of the autumn collection, as well as the classics in black. Of course, we are particularly proud of some exclusive models that are made exclusively for MBaetz, such as the trippen Bomb ankle boots in red or the trippen SantaFe women's boots in green. Both models are real trippen classics and have been available in black for many years - with the two new colours we want to offer our customers the opportunity to get their favorite and well known trippen boots in absolutely unique colours.

Trippen shoes don’t fit to normal conventions

Women who wear Trippen-shoes are independent. They often love the colour black, enjoy linen and broadcloth (Wollwalk), and will mix these materials together for a creative look. You can complete such an outfit with silver jewellery, bright coloured necklaces, and a pair of nice Trippen shoes. You can often find Trippen shoes worn by men that avoid normal conventions. These people have a willful, fashionable taste for high-quality. Trippen shoes fit perfectly with their sense of fashion.

The Successful Career of the Trippen Brand

Trippen established its own shop and showroom just a few years after its beginning. Both the shoe models and Trippen’s unique concepts are well-received by its customers to this today. Trippen has also been awarded with a recognition by the International Design Center of Stuttgart. Two Trippen stores were opened in Tokyo, followed by additional ones in Osaka and Taipei. More stores have also been set up in London, Kobe, and Kyoto. The first Trippen factory was built and opened in Zehdenick, Germany. The company has designed environmental sustainability, longevity, and responsibility into each shoe, adding a uniqueness that continues to satisfy customers. The original concept of the company's founders is still practiced today. It makes sense for Trippen shoes to be easily repaired through an exchange of individual shoe components.

A Wide and Unlimited Variety of Materials

Trippen produces shoes, bags, and accessories out of many different materials. There are no limits to Trippen’s creativity and ideas. Trippen shoes are made of denim, old bicycle tires, various kinds of wood, and leather from different animals. All these materials have been in use since 1992. They have also done experiments with insoles made from leftover carpets or soles made of old motorcycle tires. Today these experiments are stories worth telling. Although Trippen challenges what is creatively possible by using a wide variety of unique materials, its most commonly used material is leather.

Trippen leather is handmade in Tuscany

Tanneries used to spend two or three years to produce long-lasting leather. Nowadays, the production period can be drastically decreased through the use of chemistry. Amazingly, it is now possible to produce long-lasting leather in just a few days. This great leather can be created much quicker, but the hard work, steady wetness, and obnoxious smells during the leather production still remain. In the Tuscan tanneries where Trippen leather originates, the workers process rawhides, a by-product of meat production, into a durable and extremely useful material.

Oils and Waxes – Used to Create Flexibility and Suppleness

In the first step of leather production, the workers depilate (remove hair and wool from) the rawhides with water and salt. In German, this process is called "Äschern". After the depilation, the hides are prepared for the actual tanning. The workers hang out each leather individually to dry. Oils and waxes are used to treat the leather. Large machines equipped with heavy rollers press the material to make it flexible and long-lasting. A perfect foundation for the creation of comfortable and durable Trippen shoes begins with this process.

Michael Oehler and Angela Spiel Have a Direct Relationship with Livestock Breeders

You have to be attentive to hear the little, important details and stories told during meetings with Michael Oehler. It’s possible to learn about important updates, like how moose hide, a very popular leather, will soon no longer be available. Moose leather has a silk-like comfort that many enthusiasts absolutely love. Why then, is it no longer available? Unfortunately, breeding moose takes too long, and the supplies decrease too quickly. You may also hear other stories, like how Angela Spieth and Michael Oehler once drove to the livestock breeders to view the animals for themselves. They wanted to see where their animals were raised and how they were being treated.

The Leather for Trippen is Environmentally Friendly and Socially Acceptable

Trippen’s love for the material and its responsibility doesn't end with selecting an appropriate leather for the shoes. Both designers make a point that socially compatible workplaces and environmental production methods are important for them. Plant-based tanning and careful treatment of the leather skins show the unbeautified naturalness of the material; you can see little scratches, irregularities, and marks on the surface of the leather. This natural look is intended and creates a beauty that can’t be replicated. Through this process, every Trippen shoe becomes a unique item.

High standards also for humans and animals

Livestock breeders shouldn't beat their animals or mistreat them in any other way because it's cruel and heartless. Their animals may even receive large wounds due to this cruelty, making the leather processing more difficult, and might even render the damaged skin useless. In such instances, this damaged leather wouldn’t meet the high standards that Angela Spieth and Michael Oehler expect for their Trippen shoes. The numerous materials that Trippen processes include moose leather, cowhide, sheepskin, horse skin, poplar wood, beech wood, cork, and rubber soles.

Popular, Innovative and Timeless – Ingredients that Make a Shoe a Real Classic

It takes a few different features to become a classic: high memorability, great innovation potential, certain traditional values, and a high level of quality. These features have all been implemented by Trippen, the company from Berlin, for decades. We regard a shoe as a "real classic" when we think it deserves the label. What would a shoe need to be considered a classic? We regard shoes as classics when they have a special look, are made with remarkable materials, are immensely popular with our customers, and have an innovative construction. With these characteristics, a shoe deserves to be a part of our Trippen collection for years, regardless of whether it is for men or women.

"Santafe" by Trippen – a Classic that Solves the Big Question of the Shaft Fit

The lady's "Santafe" boot has been a part of our product line for 15 years and it is still going strong. This Trippen shoe solved the big question of the shaft fit because of its special design. Boots often don't fit because of how the calf fits in the shaft of the boot. Many ask, "Are these boots for slim calves or will my athletic calves also fit in?" The Santafe boot is for everybody because it has a wide shaft. These Trippen shoes can be worn in different ways. You can use a long lace and string it around the boot for proper support. A more athletic calf only needs an individual adapting of the heel and the leg can be worn casually. Because of the nature of the smooth calfskin, you have the opportunity to roll up the shaft as often as you want. With Santafe, a beautiful classic was born through its innovative concept, timeless design, and popularity among our customers. The trippen Santafe boot is now available in green - exclusively manufactured for MBaetz.

"Januar" by Trippen – Innovative and Still not Subjected to Trends

"Januar" is a modern shoe for the spring and autumn seasons. It is a lower shoe for women and is part of the "Closed" models. The shoe is considered to be the "Shakespeare" of the Trippen collection by Mbaetz. "Januar" has been available for purchase at both the local and online stores of Mbaetz for many years now. The soft calf leather embraces your feet like a scarf does around your neck during winter. The adjustable knot ensures the right support for your foot. This shoe has a remarkable design that is extremely eye-catching.

"Cosy" by Trippen – Being Comfortable All the Way

The model "Cosy" is considered to be a classic of the men’s collection. But it is also a low shoe for women, so it can be considered a unisex model, worn comfortably by either men or women. "Cosy" is made of really soft moose leather which cling to your feet like a sock. The shoe is extremely comfortable. With "Cosy", you can say goodbye to painful blisters. The shoe is a real fashion highlight because it can be used for both fashionable and casual occasions.

"Haferl" by Trippen – Sets New Standards in Terms of Environmental Awareness

"Haferl" was the first unisex model of the "Closed" group. The innovative shoe is just as trendy as it was in the past. The sewn-welted sole makes it easy to repair, giving the shoe a certain environmental awareness and commendable recycling potential. "Haferl" is also appealing for people with foot problems. A removable cork cushion can easily be replaced if needed for someone who needs orthopaedic arch support. The fashionable and smooth overlapping leather on top of the instep combined with the typical lacing of Trippen transform the "Haferl" into a real classic. Trippen shoes are convincingly classy, and they have won over many customers with their unconventional character for nearly 25 years. Trippen shoes are unaffected by temporary trends and are perfect for both older and younger people.

Buying Trippen Shoes on eBay?

Trippen shoes are made to be reliable companions for years, even for decades. They do have a unique design, but they are also really sustainable. That is why you can sometimes find Trippen shoes on eBay. There’s nothing wrong with buying second hand shoes if they’re available – our philosophy focuses on sustainability as well, and second hand is in line with that. It's possible that people search for Trippen shoes on eBay because they are made to be timeless and aren't burdened by trends or fast fashion. It is common that you can find lower prices on eBay compared to the original prices for a new pair of shoes directly from Trippen. There are a few important things to consider before choosing this option. You should take a look at the delivery charges and possible repair costs for second hand shoes. Also, it may be more inconvenient to buy shoes on eBay because you often don't the option to return an item if needed, whether for a different size or another reason.

Secondhand Trippen Shoes from eBay are Easily Restored

If you buy used shoes by Trippen, you have the possibility to restore them completely. The soles, footbeds, and insoles of Trippen shoes can all be replaced and easily exchanged. But the real question is, will they fit your feet perfectly after the restoration, even with completely new soles and insoles? The upper leather forms from the beginning to the shape of the first owner’s feet. Some of the leather wrinkles and formations from previous owners can cause discomfort. To summarize, we can say that worn-in Trippen shoes are easily restored but aren’t as comfortable as Trippen shoes that match exclusively with your own feet from the very beginning.

Limited Choice of Trippen Shoes on eBay

The limited choice of products is a big issue on websites like eBay. You can find all current collections and old models at mbaetz.com and also custom-made products at mbaetz-madeforyou.

New Soles for Your Trippen Shoes – No Big Deal with Mbaetz-services

Shoes by Trippen are made of premium, untreated leather. With the right amount of care, they will last for a very long time. But naturally, if you wear Trippen shoes every day for years, they will tend to wear out just like anything else used frequently. The areas of the shoe that see the most wear are the soles, cushions, insoles, and shoelaces. Less affected from wear over time is the leather, so it's worth it to fix the shoe instead of throwing him away and buying new ones. Trippen makes a point of manufacturing sustainable men’s and women’s shoes. Because of their eco-friendly nature, Trippen wants you to keep your shoes for a long time. Services like resoling, for example, are highly recommended.
