FAQs

What type of leather are these espadrilles made from?

The Carissa espadrilles are made from 100% high-quality leather.

How should I clean the braided raffia heel?

The raffia heel should be kept dry. If it gets wet, pat it dry immediately and allow it to air dry away from direct heat. Avoid soaking.

Are these suitable for wide feet?

The leather upper offers some flexibility, but the fit depends on individual foot shape. The elasticated slingback provides some adjustability.

Can I wear these espadrilles in wet weather?

These espadrilles are best suited for dry, warm weather. The leather and raffia materials are not designed for rain or excessive moisture.

What is the heel height of the Carissa espadrilles?

The product description mentions a 'braided raffia wedge heel' and 'flat rubber sole,' indicating a wedge style rather than a flat.

What is the best way to store these shoes when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place, ideally in their original dust bag to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.

What does the 'Carissa' model signify?

Carissa is the specific model name for this espadrille design by CASTANER SINCE 1927.

Troubleshooting

Leather appears dry or dull

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner with a soft cloth, buffing gently. Test on a hidden area first.

Elasticated strap feels too loose or tight

The elastic is designed for a snug fit. If significantly uncomfortable, consult a shoe repair specialist for potential minor adjustments.

Raffia heel has minor fraying

For very minor fraying, a tiny dab of fabric glue can be carefully applied. For significant damage, professional repair may be needed.

Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces

New soles can sometimes be slick. Gently scuffing the soles on a rough surface or applying anti-slip sole grips can improve traction.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the leather upper gently with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth and allow to air dry completely. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
  • Raffia Heel: Keep the braided raffia heel dry. If it becomes wet, gently pat it dry and allow it to air dry away from direct heat.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in the original dust bag, to protect them from dust and prevent creasing.
  • Protection: Consider using a leather protector spray suitable for your shoe's finish, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
