Full details

Their key benefit is the contoured footbed combined with a unique stone-washed denim finish for a relaxed, fashionable look.

FAQs
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The Milano model features adjustable straps that allow for some customization of fit, which can accommodate slightly wider feet. However, Birkenstock offers different width options in some models; check product details if width is a primary concern.
How do I know if I have the correct size?
Ensure there is a small space (about a finger's width) between your heel and the back of the sandal, and between your longest toe and the front. The sides of your foot should rest comfortably within the raised edges of the footbed.
Can I wear these sandals in water?
While the EVA footbed can handle some moisture, the 100% cotton denim upper is not designed for prolonged water exposure and may be damaged or discolored. It's best to avoid wearing them in wet conditions like swimming or heavy rain.
How long does the stone-washed denim finish last?
The stone-washed finish is designed to be durable for casual wear. Like any denim, it may show signs of wear over time, which can enhance its character. Proper care will help maintain its appearance.
What is the main benefit of the contoured footbed?
The contoured footbed is designed to provide natural support and cushioning, promoting proper foot alignment and reducing fatigue during long periods of wear. It offers arch support and a deep heel cup for stability.
How should I store these sandals when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keeping them in a shoebox or dust bag can help protect the material.
Troubleshooting
Sandals feel too tight or loose.
Adjust the buckle-fastening straps to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. Ensure the straps are positioned correctly over your foot.
Discoloration or marks on the denim upper.
Gently clean with a slightly damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild soap solution and test on a small area first. Ensure to air dry completely.
Footbed feels stiff initially.
This is normal for new Birkenstock footbeds. Wear them for short periods initially to allow them to mold to your feet. Consistent wear will soften the footbed and improve comfort.
Material feels damp after exposure to moisture.
Allow the sandals to air dry completely away from direct heat. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or submerging them in water due to the cotton material.
