FAQs
What material are these sandals made from?
The upper and external construction features high-quality linen.
Are these sandals suitable for wide feet?
The Olivia series features an open toe design which generally provides more flexibility, though fit can vary based on individual foot anatomy.
How should I clean the linen material?
Gently spot clean with a slightly damp, soft cloth and allow them to air dry away from direct sunlight.
Can I wear these to a formal event?
Yes, the sophisticated black finish and wedge silhouette make them appropriate for smart-casual and elevated social occasions.
Are these shoes true to size?
These sandals follow standard UK sizing conventions for adult footwear.
How can I protect the espadrille sole?
Avoid wearing them in wet conditions or through puddles, as water can weaken the rope binding.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty walking in wedges
Practice walking on a flat, indoor surface to get accustomed to the heel height and balance before wearing them for long durations.
Minor debris in the open toe area
Use a soft brush to gently clear any particles caught between the sole and the linen upper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These sandals are ready to wear immediately out of the box. For compatibility, the standard UK sizing ensures a predictable fit, though you should verify your specific UK size for the best comfort. To maintain the condition of the linen upper, avoid exposure to heavy rain or mud. If the sandals become dusty, gently wipe them with a soft, dry cloth. Keep the espadrille sole away from excessive moisture to prevent the rope material from fraying or degrading over time.
