Espadrilles

Espadrilles are usually called summer shoes with flat soles made of lightweight material. This type of shoe is worn on a bare foot without the use of socks.

Since these shoes did not require any effort in manufacturing, as well as some special financial costs, it was quite widespread among the lower layers of the population.

After some time, in the manufacture of espadrilles began to actively use jute - a special kind of plant suitable for the manufacture of durable yarn. Thanks to such durability, espadrilles soon became the favorite shoes of French miners.

In 1776, Castaner concentrated its activities on the manufacture of espadrilles, and by 1960 this type of shoe took the form that it has to this day. By the way, it is worth mentioning that in the same year, Yves Saint Laurent proposed the first model of platform and wedge espadrilles.

Translated from this significant language, the term espadrilles means the name of a particular type of grass. This grass is an elastic type of straw, which is actively used for the manufacture of ropes and some types of ropes.

It's no secret that the foot needs to breathe and what threatens to wear too tight and "stuffy" shoes in hot weather.

Since about two hundred and fifty thousand sweat glands are concentrated on the legs of a person, sweat secretions are simply inevitable. But, as you know, sweat does not have its own smell, it already appears on the surface when interacting with bacteria that can accumulate in unventilated shoes.

It is in this situation that the advantage of espadrilles is the most noticeable and relevant. The light tissue is well ventilated, so the bacteria do not have time to accumulate, and sweating occurs with much lower intensity.

It is impossible not to mention the incredibly comfortable sole, which is quite plastic and flexible, so when walking can adapt to the bend of the foot. If you have medical contraindications for wearing shoes with a completely flat sole, there is always the option of using orthopedic insoles with arch support.

As already mentioned, the classic model has a flat, rather thin sole, decorated with a wicker element. The upper part of the model is made of thin material that allows the foot to “breathe”.

The wedge model looks very unusual, because it looks more like shoes or sandals. The wedge is decorated with wicker elements, which gives the model a lighter, summer look. The upper part can also be made of any fabric.

In addition to wedges, espadrilles can have a platform that looks like a thicker sole. The platform can be straight, as well as curved and combined with a wedge, so that the growth will appear visually a couple of centimeters higher, and the leg is slimmer.

Such a heel not only looks beautiful, but also is quite comfortable and stable, which will provide maximum comfort when walking, especially if there is a sudden walk.

This type of shoe is especially good for babies in the summer, as the closed upper part protects the foot from dirt and dust, but at the same time it is easily ventilated and does not allow the foot to overheat.

You can create a stylish summer look for a man by combining a fabric model of espadrilles, a light monophonic t-shirt or a cotton shirt with a short sleeve, as well as light shorts knee-length or five to seven centimeters higher.

A jacket can be part of not only a business image, but also fit very well into everyday ones, especially if it is a dense linen pattern in a cage or strip. As the bottom of the outfit, both trousers, jeans and shorts are suitable.

It is worth noting that men's models are made from the same fabrics, but are very limited in decor and prints, since most of the elements inherent in a women's wardrobe are completely inappropriate for men.

Often used denim material, which, although it is more dense, is still quite light and "breathable", so that the shoes retain their ventilation properties. In addition, the jeans model is more durable and will last much longer.

The model of genuine leather, which is not only durable and functional, but also very beautiful in appearance, can also boast of its high degree of wear resistance. Leather espadrilles can have a matte finish or a light glossy effect obtained by varnishing.

In some cases, espadrilles are made of thin suede - the matte surface of neat “slippers” looks very solid. And the velvet model, in turn, surprises modern fashionistas with the luxury of soft fabric.

Lace espadrilles look very unusual, which are also much lighter than any fabric model. The finest lace is quite durable and wear-resistant, as it is made of elastic fibers. In addition, in combination with elegant embroidery and small sequins, this model looks simply incredible.

For example, yellow or orange espadrilles look very beautiful, and a soft lemon shade looks so gentle that it will give any image more femininity.

Pink espadrilles, as well as models in various shades of this color, will delight absolutely any girl, since this particular shade is a favorite among fragile women.

Red shoes have long been popular around the world, and models of darker, deeper shades look simply incredible. The burgundy shade goes well with dark clothes, and ripe cherry espadrilles are a great choice for warm spring days.

In addition to bright tones, more restrained models of dark colors look quite interesting. Black, dark brown, dark blue and dark green espadrilles will help in creating a more restrained outfit, closer to the classic style.

Fabric espadrilles of light shades are very good and relevant for the summer heat. White, cream, light beige, models of the color of baked milk and the color of champagne will fall into place with any outfit of warm colors.

In addition to solid models, print espadrilles are also a success. The most popular, of which are depicted in the form of large and small flowers, feathers, juicy oranges, as well as in the form of a classic strip, a pea print and a popular animal print.

But it is worthwhile to study the lineup of espadrilles in advance, in order to know for sure which decor is the most relevant and appropriate.

Small chains and large flails look pretty good on espadrilles, in the toe or heel. In addition to chains, various metal emblems and stripes are used, as well as small buckles, spikes and buttons.

Among the most popular decorative elements, one can also note embroidery, decor with the help of large gems, colored lacing and various stripes with the image of fruits, animals and cartoon characters.
