Product description
Espadrille-style ladies' footwear with shallow crepe soles. Black, made of fabric (toe box and heel counter) and cord, with visible stitches attaching the rubber sole to the sole of the shoe. The fabric toe box and heel counter are attached by a black cord which keeps them on the foot, so that the shoe does not slip off. The insole of the item is also made of black fabric.
