Product Information

Full details

The Castañer Carina Espadrille is designed for women seeking a stylish yet comfortable elevated casual shoe. Its primary benefit is the fusion of a classic espadrille silhouette with a secure wedge heel and lacing, offering both support and a refined look. A potential caveat is the specific care required for natural materials like cotton and jute, demanding gentle cleaning methods. This espadrille features a rounded closed toe, a 7 cm jute-wrapped wedge heel, and a padded insole for comfort, all constructed with a washed cotton upper and a durable rubber sole.

FAQs

What size should I order?

These espadrilles are designed to fit true to size. We recommend ordering your usual shoe size.

How high is the wedge heel?

The jute-wrapped wedge heel has a total height of 7 cm.

Can I wear these in wet weather?

No, these espadrilles are not designed for wet weather. Water can damage the cotton, jute, and lining materials. It is best to avoid wearing them in rain or damp conditions.

What is the lining made of?

The lining of the espadrille is made of 100% sheepskin.

How should I store these espadrilles when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in a dust bag or their original box, away from direct sunlight to maintain their color and material integrity.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The fit is generally considered true to size. The lace-up straps allow for some adjustability, but individuals with significantly wide feet may wish to consider this when purchasing.

Troubleshooting

Laces loosening during wear

Ensure the laces are tied securely. If they continue to loosen, consider double-knotting them or exploring alternative lacing techniques for a firmer hold.

Stains on the cotton or jute material

Attempt spot cleaning with a damp cloth and mild soap as per care instructions. For stubborn stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner specializing in natural materials.

Discomfort from the wedge heel

Ensure the size is correct and the laces are adjusted properly. If discomfort persists, the wedge height may not suit your preference for extended wear.

Jute sole showing signs of wear

Avoid excessive moisture and abrasive surfaces. For minor fraying, a small amount of fabric glue can sometimes be used to secure loose threads.

Care Instructions:

  • General Cleaning: Use a soft brush to gently remove loose dirt and dust from the cotton upper and jute wedge.
  • Spot Cleaning: For minor marks, clean gently with a damp microfiber cloth. If necessary, use a very mild soap solution. Avoid oversaturating the material.
  • Drying: After cleaning, remove excess moisture with a suede cloth. Allow the espadrilles to air dry completely, away from direct heat sources and direct sunlight, as these can damage the materials.
  • Avoidance: Do not machine wash or submerge the espadrilles in water. Keep them away from grease, perfumes, and cosmetics, which can stain or damage the fabric and jute.
