FAQs

Can I wear these espadrilles in the rain?

No. The jute rope is highly absorbent and can degrade or become mildewed if exposed to significant water.

How should I store them?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, ideally with shoe trees to help them maintain their shape.

Are these shoes machine washable?

Absolutely not. Machine washing will ruin the structure of the shoe and damage the jute sole.

Do they run true to size?

The Castañer Joel T typically fits true to standard UK sizing. If you are between sizes, consider the intended fit for a slip-on shoe.

Is the leather upper breathable?

Yes, leather is a natural material that offers better breathability than synthetic materials, making it ideal for warmer weather.

Troubleshooting

Jute sole looks frayed after regular use

Small straggling fibers are normal. You can carefully trim them with sharp scissors, but do not pull on the threads.

Leather upper feels stiff upon initial wear

Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the heat of your feet to naturally soften the leather.

Dirt stuck between the jute rope

Use a dry, soft brush to gently flick out debris. Do not use water or soap.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These shoes are ready to wear immediately out of the box with no break-in period required for most users. To ensure longevity, always avoid wearing them in rain or on extremely muddy surfaces to prevent damage to the jute trim. For daily care, use a soft-bristled brush to gently remove surface dust and dirt. Never machine wash the shoes, as this will compromise the integrity of the jute and leather. If the leather becomes stained or dull, consult a professional leather cleaner to maintain the finish.
