FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The BIRKENSTOCK Milano sandals are designed with a narrow fit. If your child has wider feet, they might be more comfortable in a different Birkenstock model or size up if possible, though width is a primary factor.
How do I clean the suede footbed?
For light dirt, use a dry suede brush. For tougher marks, a specialized suede cleaner can be used, but always test on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid getting the suede significantly wet.
What is the sole made of?
The sole is made from 100% EVA, which provides a lightweight, flexible, and durable base with good grip.
Can these sandals be worn in water?
While the synthetic materials can handle some moisture, the suede footbed is not water-friendly and can be damaged. They are best suited for dry or lightly damp conditions, not for submersion in water.
What does 'narrow fit' mean for kids' shoes?
'Narrow fit' refers to the width of the shoe's last and footbed. These sandals are designed for feet that are on the slimmer side. A standard or wide-fit shoe would be wider.
What is the fastening system?
The Milano features a combination of an adjustable metal buckle strap across the front and a hook-and-loop (touch 'n' close) strap over the ankle for a secure and customizable fit.
Where are these sandals made?
These BIRKENSTOCK Milano sandals are made in Europe.
Troubleshooting
Sandal feels too loose or too tight
Adjust the strap and buckle for a more secure fit. Ensure the correct size has been selected, as the narrow fit is characteristic of this model.
Material appears dirty or stained
For synthetic parts, use a damp cloth. For the suede footbed, use a dry brush or a suede cleaner, and avoid excessive moisture.
Child is uncomfortable wearing them
Ensure the straps are adjusted correctly to avoid pinching. Break in the sandals gradually if they feel stiff. Consider if the narrow fit is suitable for your child's foot width.
