Setup and First Use
- Unpacking: Carefully remove the sandals from their packaging. Inspect them for any visible damage or manufacturing defects.
- Strap Adjustment: The Brielle sandals feature adjustable buckle straps. Before wearing, adjust the buckles to achieve a comfortable and secure fit across your foot. Ensure the straps are not too tight to prevent discomfort or too loose to prevent slipping.
- Initial Wear: Wear the sandals for short periods initially to allow your feet to adapt to the molded footbed and strap placement.

Operating Instructions
- Wearing: Slide your foot into the sandal, ensuring your foot rests comfortably on the molded cork insole. The slip-on design allows for easy wear.
- Fit: The sandals should feel snug but not restrictive. If the fit changes over time, readjust the buckles as needed.
- Intended Use: These sandals are designed for casual wear. They are not intended for strenuous activities or prolonged exposure to wet conditions.
Maintenance and Care
- Cleaning the Upper: For the synthetic upper, wipe gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the material.
- Cleaning the Footbed: The cork insole can be wiped with a slightly damp cloth. Allow to air dry completely. Do not submerge the sandals in water.
- Sole Care: The synthetic rubber sole can be cleaned with a brush to remove dirt and debris.
- Drying: If the sandals become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight, which can cause material degradation.
- Storage: Store sandals in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Keeping them in their original box or a shoe bag can help protect them from dust and damage.

Troubleshooting
- Issue: Sandals feel too heavy or uncomfortable.
- Solution: While the platform design adds some weight, ensure the buckles are adjusted correctly. If discomfort persists after initial wear, the sandal may not be suitable for your foot shape. Consider trying a different size or style.
- Issue: Straps feel too tight or too loose.
- Solution: Utilize the adjustable buckles on the double band upper to customize the fit. Adjust until the straps hold your foot securely without pinching or allowing excessive movement.
- Issue: Sandals are stiff and do not flex well.
- Solution: New footwear can sometimes feel stiff. Continue wearing the sandals for short periods to allow the materials to break in and conform to your foot. If stiffness causes a safety concern, such as on stairs, exercise caution.
