Best Espadrilles for Spring

With spring already established in our routine, the vast majority of us can’t think of anything but the mid-season basics, and although trench coats and the first sandals have stolen all the spotlight, we must not lose sight of the espadrilles. The reason? They are an investment worth it, as they are comfortable, lightweight, and have that artisanal touch that always works when you’re looking to make your look feel fresher.

Moreover, something that fascinates us about them is that they adapt to any style you have in mind, whether it’s a linen dress, a pair of straight-leg jeans, or a midi skirt for an office look. They always fit. They are that wardrobe staple that doesn’t understand age, occasions, or settings. Now, however, not all are the same. There are with wedges for those who want to look elongated, flats for day-to-day wear, or sandal-type if you need to have the best of both worlds.

If you need an all-terrain model? Look at the materials (canvas and suede), at the fastening (much better if they tie at the ankle because they also slim the leg) and at the color. We’re not going to reinvent the wheel, but neutral tones always act as that ally that never goes out of fashion.
