FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Sizing can vary between brands and styles. It is recommended to consult the size chart and consider reviews regarding fit. For this model, some users find them to run slightly narrow.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

While the espadrille sole offers some grip, it is not waterproof and can be damaged by excessive moisture. It is best to wear these in dry conditions.

How do I clean the espadrille sole?

Use a soft brush to gently remove dirt and debris from the jute sole. Avoid soaking the sole, as this can degrade the material.

What is the best way to store these shoes?

Store them in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Using a shoe bag or stuffing them with paper can help maintain their shape.

Are these suitable for a wide foot?

These espadrilles are generally designed for a standard width. If you have wide feet, they might feel snug. Trying them on is the best way to assess comfort.

What occasions are these shoes best for?

They are versatile and suitable for everyday casual wear, brunch, shopping, and can also be dressed up for semi-formal events like garden parties or dinners.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Try wearing them with thin socks for a short period or use a shoe stretcher. As they are leather, they may offer slight give with wear.

Espadrille sole showing wear

For minor wear, a cobbler can sometimes reinforce the sole. Avoid excessive wear on rough or wet surfaces.

Color transfer from shoe to clothing

This is rare but can occur with new dye. Test by rubbing a white cloth on the inside of the shoe. If transfer occurs, treat with a color protectant spray or limit wear with very light-colored clothing until the color sets.
