Full details
The Castañer Carol espadrille is designed for adult women seeking comfortable and stylish footwear for warm weather. Its key benefit lies in the combination of a washed cotton upper and a 5 cm jute wedge, offering a blend of relaxed style and all-day wearability. A potential caveat to consider is its true-to-size fit, which may require careful consideration for those with unusually narrow or wide feet. This model features a classic espadrille design with a modern twist, including an ankle strap closure and a cushioned insole.

Can I wear these espadrilles in wet weather?

How should I clean the cotton upper?
Clean the cotton canvas with a damp cloth or sponge. Brush off dust regularly and air dry away from direct sunlight.
Is the ankle strap adjustable?

Are these suitable for long periods of standing or walking?
The cushioned insole and moderate wedge height offer comfort for extended wear, making them suitable for casual walking and standing for reasonable durations.
Troubleshooting
Espadrilles feel slightly stiff on first wear.
This is common with new cotton footwear. Wear them around the house for short periods to break them in. The cotton will soften with wear.
Minor scuff marks on the cotton upper.
Gently clean the affected area with a slightly damp cloth or sponge. For tougher marks, a mild soap solution can be used sparingly, followed by a clean damp cloth.
Ankle strap feels uncomfortable or rubs.
Adjust the strap to find a more comfortable position. If the issue persists, consider if the shoe's overall fit is correct. Ensure the strap is not buckled too tightly.
Jute sole appears dirty.
Use a dry brush to remove surface dirt. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used very carefully, ensuring not to saturate the jute. Allow to air dry thoroughly.
