What material is the upper made of?

Can I wear these in wet weather?

The jute wedge should be kept as dry as possible. Brush off dirt with a soft brush. Avoid getting the jute wet, as this can cause it to fray or discolor.

Troubleshooting

Espadrilles feel slightly stiff on first wear.

This is common with natural cotton uppers. Wear them around the house for short periods to allow them to mold to your feet.

Discoloration on the jute wedge.

Avoid direct contact with water and liquids. If minor spotting occurs, try gently brushing with a dry, soft brush. For stubborn stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner.

Laces becoming untied frequently.

Ensure the laces are tied securely with a double knot. If the laces are particularly smooth, consider a more robust knotting technique or a lace lock if preferred.
