If you are a lover of Ibizan style, or you´re simply one of the savvy trend hunters, always being at the forefront of what´s new in design and style, surely you have had, and still, have in your wardrobe some espadrilles. Its identity is 100% Spanish but has its origin in the eastern Mediterranean, Valencia and Catalonia, and of course in the Balearic Islands. They were the footwear of farmers when they went to work in the fields, and also form part of the costumes in the current regional dances, precisely because these dances recall the rural past of these lands. Even today, you can still see octogenarians who continue to go to the countryside every day with their 'espardenyes'!
The espadrilles, which are deeply rooted in Ibizan style and which can now be found in practically every market on the island, are made of timeless materials such as canvas fabrics and esparto grass texture. They are used especially in the summer when temperatures rise and are preferred by both men and women. However, the tradition and comfort of this footwear have been steeped in innovation and design, giving rise to exclusive creations of unbeatable quality. What colour is yours? Do they have a platform? Do they combine canvas with other fabrics and materials? The answers could be endless, especially in Ibizan style!
