The Prym Espadrille Soles in Size 8 are designed for DIY enthusiasts and crafters looking to create custom, personalized footwear from scratch. These soles offer a stable foundation with a non-slip rubber base and a traditional jute-wrapped finish, making them ideal for sewing your own unique shoe uppers; however, please note that you must have basic sewing skills and appropriate needles to successfully attach fabric uppers to the thick jute material.

These are standardized to a size 8.
Yes, the non-slip rubber base is suitable for outdoor use, though they are best kept dry.
It is generally recommended to hand-sew the uppers to the soles using a heavy-duty needle, as sewing machines may struggle with the thickness of the jute.
Use a strong, waxed upholstery thread for the best results and durability.
No, washing the soles in a machine will damage the jute construction. Clean only with a damp cloth.
Use a thimble to protect your fingers and consider using an awl or a leather-piercing tool to pre-punch holes along the sewing line.
Use a heavy-duty polyester or waxed thread, which is specifically designed to withstand the tension of attaching fabric to coarse materials like jute.
To begin your project, ensure you have a sturdy needle (such as a leather or upholstery needle) and strong, durable thread. The soles are pre-formed in size 8, so measure your foot length before beginning the upper pattern to ensure a proper fit. For care, avoid submerging these soles in water, as jute can deteriorate when soaked. If the soles become dusty, use a dry, soft brush to remove debris from the woven jute edges. If the rubber base becomes soiled, wipe it down with a damp cloth and mild soap, then allow it to air dry completely away from direct heat sources.
