Since the launch of the company Trippen has won a series of international design awards. In 1996/97 the Closed collection was nominated for the Baden-Württemberg International Design Award with "Longevity" as theme. In 1999/2000 the Closed collection won three awards for its innovative pattern solutions. One example is the model Hi-Cut. Here a horizontal cutting system is used to create a boot without the need for crimping or a central joining seam. In 2001/02 the Cup collection won Good Design Awards in Japan and the US and the red dot award for product design awarded by the Design Zentrum		Nordrhein Westfalen. The idea behind the Cups was to develop an ergonomic shoe with a modern look and a new wearing sensation. In 2004 also the Penna collection won a Good Design Award. In 2005 the Penna collection was also nominated for the Design Award of the Federal Republic of Germany 2006. In 2007 the x + os collection was awarded with an iF product design award and the German Shoe and Leather Goods Prize and also nominated for the Design Award of the Federal Republic of Germany 2008.
