Navy Blue Espadrille

French people's favorite espadrille : the navy blue espadrille

Here is the most iconic summer espadrille : the navy blue espadrille ! It is a timeless classic among summer footwear and has become one of the French people's go-to choice for a relaxed outfit. We know well that vacationers are particularly looking for comfort, ease and, for many, sobriety. We think in particular of the Beach Dandies, the busy Dads, the sweet Granpas and all those ladies and gentlemen who prefer to play the all-purpose card. They often shy away from bold prints, colorful designs and other stylistic flourishes. It is to them that we dedicate our navy blue espadrille.

a sober high-quality canvas

Since the espadrille is made up of very few materials, we pay very particular attention to each of them. Our canvases are therefore a flagship element that conveys our values ​​and aspirations. We choose them rigorously with a concern for eco-friendliness and sustainability. The navy blue espadrille thus benefits from an upper which is fully in line with our environmental policy: it is made from recycled cotton. It was essential for us to participate on our scale in reducing the environmental impact of our manufacturing. It was therefore quite natural that we turned to recycled materials. Recycled cotton is as aesthetic as its traditional counterpart and is of very good quality. To dye the canvas, we also chose an option that is less harmful to the environment: vegetable ink. It allows us to obtain a navy blue color with deep and vibrant shades. This color is, in our opinion, the perfect compromise to bring a little color to your feet while remaining sober.

A navy blue espadrille as unique as you

One of our other objectives with the navy blue espadrille is to offer you a model that reflects your image. This is already possible thanks to the materials: the jute insole takes the shape of your feet, adapting to all shapes. Beyond this aspect, we also offer the possibility to customize your model. Personalization allows you to make your pair unique by giving it a little personal touch. We particularly recommend embroidery when you want to offer a nice souvenir to a loved one. Weddings, baptisms, birthdays, many occasions lend themselves to personalization. Some very beautiful statements have been made on our canvases so far, so don't hesitate to get inspired: go to our “embroider me” page.

Manufactured by Mauléon

Made in France , our navy blue espadrilles are heirs to ancestral know-how . The rope sandal in its French version originates from the South, we have consciously chosen to perpetuate this tradition in a workshop in the heart of the Basque Country . It is in the town of Mauléon that all our models are designed by the hands of specialized craftsmen. Their technique is reflected in the specificity of the assembly of the models: for the sole, Basque tradition dictates that the interior be made of natural rope vulcanized on rubber. At the front of each pair there is a stitching point, allowing for a rounding to match the shape of the foot. The seam from the upper to the sole is made of nylon thread, much more resistant than the commonly used cotton thread. This model thus testifies to the quality of a product which has stood the test of time and continues to charm us with its authenticity. This authentic character is also reflected in the atmosphere summoned by this sandal: the Mediterranean spirit and all the pleasures associated with it are invited to our feet. Sunny landscapes, warm sand, rest and tranquility will be the key words that will guide your summers in navy blue espadrilles.

They like sobriety and navy blue has carved out a special place for itself in their wardrobe.
