Plain espadrilles

Plain espadrilles made in France, an undeniable fashion asset

Summer fashion is all about simplicity. The fabrics are fluid, light and the colors exude vitality. The watchwords? Freedom and comfort. If there is one accessory that conveys this spirit, it is the plain espadrilles. Discover our collection of Payote plain espadrilles for men and women. A collection that aims to be a subtle blend of know-how, comfort and authenticity .

Models imbued with the charm of tradition

The espadrille is, above all, a very simple recipe. A canvas, a little rope and a seam to tie it all together. It is these three elements which have always composed this handmade sandal since its existence was discovered. And that’s what makes it so charming. This simplicity which reveals to us a universe which exudes freshness and freedom of movement.

“In espadrilles, we are just civilized enough to be familiar with the globe, without the reluctant apprehension of the wary bare foot, without the excessive confidence of the too-well-shod foot,” said Philippe Delerm.

The Payote plain espadrilles follow in the footsteps of this quote. The foot is correctly shod. Protected by a beautiful traditional natural rope sole . Itself covered with a layer of recycled natural rubber , for greater durability. Sewn to this sole, we find a pretty recycled cotton canvas which lets the foot breathe. Recycled cotton? Yes, at Payote, it was important to us to combine our environmental ambitions with our products. Thanks to this material, this is possible without compromising on aesthetics or comfort. It's a nice compromise so that the environment and espadrilles go hand in hand without any missteps.

Another element that reflects tradition is obviously manufacturing. A true connoisseur will also be able to notice it through the cut of our plain espadrilles: they are rounded.

The fabric at the toe is slightly folded to give way to a pretty round cut. This is emblematic of traditional espadrilles from the Basque Country . It is precisely in this region that we have all our collections made. The workshop with which we work is located in the heart of Mauléon, a small town recognized for its craftsmanship specializing in espadrille.

This homemade imprint of a ancestral know-how give our plain models a strong identity. Beyond his French manufacturing , this collection also combines more modern elements. We can particularly notice this at the seam level. She is in nylon thread instead of cotton which is generally used. This provides more durability to the canvas espadrille.

A collection marked by a philosophy of life

Lulled by the swinging of the hammock and the song of the cicadas, you extend your little nap. The scents of the Mediterranean fill the air with their invigorating freshness. Eventually, you are awakened by the sea spray. When we have a pair of sneakers on our feet, these moments are familiar to us.

If there is one thing that our collection of plain espadrilles evokes, it is the Mediterranean art of living. Stripped of the superfluous, it imposes its rural charm in our wardrobe while revealing a certain vision of life. We could speak of an epicurean lifestyle, of passionate enthusiasm, of a balance between sun, smile and pleasure. We welcome, we share, we relax and we free ourselves from daily stress. This Pyrenean rope sandal teaches you to cultivate the art of living to the rhythm of the sun.
