How to keep feet looking and feeling cool during summer

Originating in the Pyrenees, espadrilles are a great choice for summer footwear for both men and women. Equally suitable for beach or everyday wear, espadrilles are a stylish alternative to flip flops or sandals.

Black Espadrilles

Black is arguably the most reliable color when it comes to footwear, matching with just about anything and stubbornly resisting the appearance of marks and stains. However, as well as plain espadrilles, there are also plenty of striped and patterned black designs for those wanting slightly more eye-catching footwear.

Ways to Wear Black Espadrilles

  • Chukka boot style espadrilles look great with skinny jeans
  • Liven up your plain t-shirt and short summer outfits with a pair of patterned espadrilles

Espadrille Trivia
