Men's and Women's Espadrilles: Toms and Ilse Jacobsen

Espadrilles Toms : Alpargata, Alonso and Santiago

The espadrilles Toms lead the selection: Toms Alpargata and Alpargata Rope 2.0 espadrilles, with a rope sole, Toms Alonso Loafer Rope espadrilles, in a loafer style, and Toms Santiago espadrilles in a mule version, with an open heel. The Alpargata Rope 2.0 also comes in nautical stripes, for a seaside vibe.

Espadrilles Ilse Jacobsen Hornbæk : Tulip and platforms

The Ilse Jacobsen Hornbæk Tulip espadrilles and the brand's platform espadrilles take on a feminine version: the summer espadrille is worn with a summer dress, wide trousers, or cropped jeans.

Espadrilles Toms Alpargata and Alonso Loafer

The men's espadrilles are based on Toms: the Alpargata, the simplest one, is worn with shorts or rolled-up chinos, the Alonso Loafer with linen trousers for a dressier outfit. The canvas espadrille replaces trainers in summer, worn barefoot.

Ilse Jacobsen espadrilles, Toms Santiago and Odaje

The women's espadrilles include Toms Santiago suede espadrilles, in a mule version, and Odaje and Natural World espadrilles. The wedge espadrille elongates the silhouette without the strain of a thin heel.

Flat, wedge or loafer espadrilles: making the right choice

The flat canvas espadrille is the lightest and most casual; the wedge, on a rope platform, dresses up a dress or a skirt; the loafer style, with a moccasin design, works in the city with chinos. For the beach, a light canvas espadrille remains the coolest option.

Summer espadrilles and loafers

For a dressier line, loafers in leather or suede take over, along with Sebago Docksides boat shoes: the summer loafer is also worn without socks.

Espadrille colours: natural, navy or stripes

A natural or ecru espadrille goes with everything, from linen shorts to jeans; navy and black are worn in the city, stripes and bright colours at the beach. A black espadrille also works with lightweight trousers for a summer wedding, and a striped espadrille brightens up a white outfit. Light-coloured canvas gets dirty quickly: a protective spray, applied new, keeps it clean longer.

Gold espadrilles, leather espadrilles and platform espadrilles

Gold espadrilles or silver ones dress up an evening outfit on holiday, with a long dress or white trousers. Leather espadrilles, more durable than canvas, can be worn longer into the season and withstand a shower better. The platform espadrille, on a thick rope sole, adds height without the imbalance of a thin heel.

Frequently asked questions about espadrilles

How do espadrilles fit?

Canvas stretches a bit with wear: take your usual size, preferably snug, especially for a lace-free model. Between two sizes, the smaller one holds the foot better once the canvas has shaped.

Can espadrilles be washed?

By hand, in cold soapy water, without soaking the rope sole, which dries badly and can deform. Let dry in the air, in the shade: the rope sole is sensitive to prolonged moisture.

Should you wear socks with espadrilles?

No, espadrilles are worn barefoot. Invisible footies protect the canvas from sweat without being seen: the barefoot espadrille remains the rule.

What to wear with espadrilles?

Linen shorts, short chinos or a summer dress; natural tones, beige, white or navy, match the rope sole. A simple summer outfit is enough.

Are espadrilles made for long walks?

For the city and outings, yes; for long walks, a thicker sole or a sandal with a footbed is better suited. The espadrille remains a casual shoe.
