Unpack Your Sandals: Carefully remove your new Milano sandals from their packaging.
Adjust Buckles: Before wearing, loosen all three buckle straps. Place your foot into the sandal and adjust each buckle individually to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure there is about a finger's width of space between your foot and the straps.
Break-in Period: Wear your sandals for short periods initially (e.g., 30 minutes to an hour) over the first few days. This allows the cork footbed to gradually mold to the unique contours of your feet, enhancing comfort and support.
Casual Wear: Designed for casual daily wear, pairing well with a variety of relaxed clothing styles.
Warm Weather: Best suited for dry, warm conditions. While durable, prolonged exposure to excessive moisture or extreme cold is not recommended for the cork footbed.
Birko-Flor Upper: Wipe clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the synthetic material.
Cork Footbed: To clean, gently wipe with a damp cloth. Do not submerge in water or use harsh cleaning agents, as this can dry out and crack the cork. If the footbed gets wet, allow it to air dry slowly away from direct heat.
EVA Sole: Can be wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild soap.
General Care: Store your sandals in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme heat to prevent the cork from drying out. Avoid leaving them in a hot car.
Re-Corking: Over time, the cork sealant may wear down. Birkenstock offers re-corking services or you can use a cork sealant product to extend the life of your footbed.
