Shapen Women's Playa Espadrilles - Beige Vegan – Barefoot Espadrille for Summer Comfort The Shapen Playa Espadrille in Beige Vegan brings classic summer styling to the world of barefoot footwear. This is our first ever Espadrille style shoe and we are delighted to add it to our summer collection. An espadrille is a type of casual shoe characterised by a canvas upper and a flexible, rope-soled base made from jute or esparto grass. This unique barefoot version stays true to its roots, featuring an organic cotton upper that’s lightweight, breathable, and ideal for warm-weather adventures. Sitting on a zero drop, ultra-flexible rubber sole just 3mm thick, this espadrille promotes natural foot movement and excellent ground feel. A rope-style jute trim around the base adds a timeless, laid-back aesthetic. The Playa comes in two width options: Regular Fit – generously wide and suitable for medium to wide feet Wide Fit – ideal for extra-wide feet needing more room to move An essential barefoot shoe for spring and summer, the Playa combines minimalist function with eco-conscious design and effortless everyday style.
