Espadrille Sandals for Women - Flat Styles

What makes a good espadrille sandal

The sole is the starting point. Traditional espadrilles use braided jute or rope, and many modern versions add a rubber layer underneath for grip and durability on pavements. A rope-wrapped midsole gives the classic look, while a moulded sole with a rope trim holds up better in light rain.

The upper decides how the sandal fits and feels. Leather is supportive and shapes to your foot over time. Suede is softer and suits warm, dry days, and synthetic raffia gives a woven, holiday finish. Django & Juliette works across all three, often in tan, nutmeg and natural shades that sit easily with linen and denim.

Choosing a sole height

Flat espadrille sandals are the most relaxed choice for weekends, markets and holidays. A wedge adds height while keeping the weight spread across the whole sole, so it suits weddings and lunches where you will be standing for a while. Our espadrille wedges include rope-soled styles for a dressier summer look.

Colour is worth considering too. Tan and natural are the most versatile, while our black espadrilles hide wear and work well for evenings. Ziera offers wider fittings in some of its sandals, so ask our team if a standard width feels tight.

Care is simple but worth doing. Brush dirt off rope soles once dry, spot clean leather or suede uppers, and store espadrilles somewhere airy so the jute and rope can breathe between wears. A pair looked after this way often lasts several summers.

FAQs

Q: Are espadrille sandals good for walking?
A: Yes, for casual walking and day trips most espadrille sandals are comfortable thanks to their light, flexible soles. For longer walks, choose a pair with a rubber outsole and an ankle strap to keep the foot secure.

Q: Can you wear espadrilles in the rain?
A: It is best to avoid heavy rain, since rope soles absorb water and can lose their shape. A light shower is usually fine if you let them dry fully and naturally afterwards.

Q: Should espadrilles fit tight?
A: Espadrilles should feel snug but not pinch when new. Fabric and leather uppers soften with wear, while the rope sole keeps its length, so avoid sizing down too far.

Q: What do you wear with espadrille sandals?
A: Espadrille sandals suit linen trousers, shorts, cropped jeans and summer dresses. Tan and natural tones pair with almost anything, and a wedge style works well with midi dresses for events.

Q: How do I stop espadrilles slipping off?
A: Choose a pair with an ankle tie, slingback or elastic strap, which holds the foot in place as you walk. If you have a tie-up style, wrap the ribbon snugly around the ankle before knotting so it does not loosen through the day.
