Full details
The Birkenstock Milano AS Sandals are designed for active children who need a reliable, comfortable shoe for warm-weather adventures. Featuring a structured silhouette with adjustable straps for a secure fit, these sandals provide excellent support for growing feet, though they require a short break-in period to allow the cork footbed to mold to the wearer's shape.

FAQs
Are these sandals waterproof?
No, while the Birko-Flor upper is durable, the cork-latex footbed should not be submerged in water as it can weaken the adhesive and damage the cork.
How do I know if the fit is correct?
There should be a small amount of space in front of the toes and behind the heel. The toes should not touch the edge of the footbed when walking.
Can I wear these with socks?
Yes, many children find wearing the sandals with socks during the break-in period increases comfort and helps prevent rubbing.
What is Birko-Flor?
Birko-Flor is a high-quality, synthetic upper material that is skin-friendly and tear-resistant, designed to look and feel like high-end nubuck leather.
How often should I clean the footbed?
Clean the footbed as needed by gently brushing away dirt. If the suede becomes stained, a damp cloth with mild soap can be used sparingly.
Troubleshooting
The sandal feels too hard or uncomfortable initially
The cork footbed is designed to break in over time. Encourage the child to wear them for 1-2 hours a day until the material softens and molds to their foot.
The touch fastener on the ankle strap is losing grip
Check the fabric for lint or debris build-up. Use a small brush or tweezers to remove any trapped particles to restore the adhesive strength of the fastener.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Birkenstock sandals, follow these guidelines:
- Adjustment: Upon first wear, adjust the buckle and the ankle strap so the sandal sits snugly without pinching the skin.
- Break-in: Have your child wear them for short periods initially to allow the footbed to adapt.
- Cleaning: Wipe the Birko-Flor upper with a damp cloth to remove dirt. The suede lining should be brushed gently with a soft brush if it becomes dusty.
- Storage: Keep away from extreme heat sources, such as radiators or direct sunlight in a hot car, as high heat can damage the cork-latex base.
- Moisture: Avoid submerging the sandals in water; if they do get wet, allow them to air dry naturally in a shaded, well-ventilated area.
