Spain is a centre of expertise for hand-crafted espadrilles. We have teamed up with a superb artisan factory for our Caldeira traditional espadrille. The natural jute is coiled by hand using a nail board to guide the sole shape, then secured, again by hand, with a horizontal side stitch. The outer base of the jute is protected by a rubber tread, and we’ve finished the inside with a leather heel piece. The simple A-line upper pattern is made from cotton / linen blend tan and white striped fabric with a suede back pull tab at the heel.
