A little history on the espadrille!
The first espadrilles were simple, practical shoes worn by peasants, miners and soldiers to protect their feet. They were appreciated for their lightness, comfort and ease of manufacture. Espadrilles have evolved over time from work shoes to fashion accessories. During the 20th century, espadrilles grew in popularity around the world, thanks in particular to film and fashion personalities who adopted them. Important personalities like Grace Kelly or Pablo Picasso contributed to the popularization of this shoe, which quickly became a symbol of relaxation and casual elegance. The espadrille is today an emblematic shoe, which embodies the summer spirit and the values of Basque culture.The rope in all its forms at Soka
