FAQs
Are these espadrilles suitable for everyday wear?
Yes, their refined leather construction and comfortable espadrille design make them suitable for everyday wear in warm weather.
How do I clean the jute sole?
The jute sole should be kept as dry as possible. Spot clean gently with a slightly damp cloth if necessary, and allow it to air dry completely away from heat.
What type of leather is used?
The espadrilles are made from 100% leather, offering a premium feel and appearance.
Do these espadrilles run true to size?
Generally, they are designed to fit true to size. However, leather can stretch slightly over time. If you are between sizes, consider your preference for a snug or looser fit.
Can I wear these in wet conditions?
It is not recommended to wear these espadrilles in wet conditions, as both the leather and the jute sole can be damaged by excessive moisture.
What does the embossed Cassandre refer to?
The Cassandre is the iconic interlocking 'YSL' logo designed by Cassandre, which is embossed onto the leather of the espadrilles.
How should I store these espadrilles when not in use?
Store them in a cool, dry place, preferably in a dust bag or their original box to protect them from dust and maintain their shape.
Troubleshooting
Leather appears scuffed or marked
Gently buff the affected area with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper scuffs, a specialized leather conditioner or balm may be used, following product instructions and testing in an inconspicuous area first.
Jute sole feels stiff or dry
While jute is naturally absorbent, excessive dryness can occur. A very small amount of natural oil (like coconut oil, applied sparingly with a cloth) can help maintain flexibility, but test this on a small area first to avoid discoloration.
Slight odor from jute or leather
Allow the espadrilles to air out in a well-ventilated area. Placing a sachet of baking soda inside them overnight can help absorb odors.
Fit feels slightly loose over time
Leather can mold to the foot. If the fit loosens, consider using a thin insole or heel grips for a more secure feel. Ensure the correct size was purchased initially.
