The construction behind KARLA is straightforward and old as espadrilles themselves: a rubber or leather sole, topped with an upper hand-woven from silk or cotton thread. That handwoven upper is light and breathable, which is exactly why the shoe performs best through the hotter months, keeping feet cool rather than closed in. Fully washable and built to last, KARLA's colorful finish carries a modern edge that local artisans have brought to a traditional shape. It's made for daily wear, in sizes that fit both men and women.
