Our new espadrille is made in our specialist factory in Spain. The A-line upper design is a whole cut with an air cord apron seam, whereby a cord is stitched under the upper before heat setting to create a smooth clean finish. The black soft calf suede is relatively thick and requires no lining, but we’ve added a cushioned full leather insock. The clever thing is the sole – a practical moulded rubber sole wrapped in a band of natural woven jute to give the look of an espadrille with the durability of a plimsoll.
