Lace Up for the Job. Stay Comfortable All Day Long.
The Birkenstock QO 500 Leather Regular Unisex brings lace-up sneaker style to serious professional environments. A fluid-resistant natural leather upper handles daily workplace demands with ease. The outsole resists slip, oil, and petrol for confident footing on challenging surfaces. This shoe meets EN ISO 20347:2012 certification and O2 protection category requirements.
Birkenstock’s anatomical cork-latex footbed cushions every step inside the QO 500 Leather. It molds gradually to the shape of your foot over time. Weight distributes evenly from heel to toe throughout the entire shift. That balanced support reduces fatigue on hard floors all day long.
Inside, a deep heel cup locks the foot into proper alignment. Built-in arch support stabilizes the foot with every step. Additionally, the integrated metatarsal pad lifts the transverse arch for natural forefoot relief. The regular width fits a broad range of foot shapes comfortably from the start.
The slip-, oil-, and petrol-resistant rubber outsole grips confidently across wet and contaminated surfaces. The durable natural leather upper resists fluid penetration and holds up through heavy daily use. Together, these features deliver certified safety without sacrificing everyday comfort. Built to perform through every demanding shift.
The QO 500 Regular Unisex fits healthcare, hospitality, food service, and industrial settings naturally. The lace-up design also delivers a more customized, locked-down fit than slip-on styles. One shoe handles professional demands and off-the-clock comfort alike.
