Full details

FAQs

Are these sandals waterproof?

No, the leather and cork construction is not waterproof. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or deep water.

How do I determine my size?

Birkenstock sizes are based on European standards. It is recommended to use an official brand size guide to convert your UK size correctly.

Will the big buckle lose its finish?

The buckle is durable, but like any metal accessory, it should be kept dry to prevent potential spotting.

Can the soles be repaired?

Yes, authorized Birkenstock repair centers can replace the EVA outsoles if they wear down significantly.

Where are these made?

All Birkenstock Milano sandals are manufactured in Germany.

Troubleshooting

Footbed feels too hard at first

This is normal for new cork footbeds. Wear them for short intervals (1-2 hours) over the first few days to allow the cork to warm and mold to your foot shape.

Buckle feels loose

Adjust the strap tension using the buckle pin holes to ensure the sandal remains secure against your instep.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Secure fit provided by the integrated heel strap
  • Sophisticated, updated look with the Big Buckle design
  • High-quality, durable oiled nubuck leather construction
  • Anatomical support for long-term foot health
  • German craftsmanship ensures longevity

Cons

  • Cork footbed requires a break-in period to reach maximum comfort
  • Not suitable for use in deep water or submersion
  • Fixed width profile may not accommodate all foot shapes perfectly

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your sandals last, start by adjusting the straps to your preferred tension while wearing socks to help stretch the leather slightly. Keep the sandals away from extreme heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight in a parked car, as this can dry out the cork. For cleaning, use a soft brush to remove dirt from the nubuck upper. If the footbed becomes dirty, wipe it gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid submerging the leather in water, and consider using a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple.
