It’s the most opportune time to begin preparing your closets for the warmer months ahead, right? For a touch of European comfort that fits in seamlessly on the streets and on the beach, a pair of espadrille flats from Soludos should do the trick. Founder Nick Brown fills in the blanks on this summertime savior.
Since it’s not quite summer yet, which types of espadrilles are best for cold weather?
Our sandshoe sneakers are perhaps best suited for the colder months; they’re vulcanized soled classic oxfords in beautiful seasonal colors and they’re perfect casual kicks.
Have you ever worn a pair of espadrilles to a formal event?
My Soludos do make my suit look sharper.
Will you ever make heels?
In Spring our first espadrille wedge launches. I don’t know how I’ve fended off requests for height for so long!
How many Soludos are in your closet at the moment?
One! I wear mine one at a time and wear each one to death.
Tell us about your first pair of espadrilles!
I was four years old in Spain, they were white for about an hour and grew darker and darker shades of beige and grey with each passing summer adventure.
