Drilles IN DETAIL
Our aim is to produce simple, stylish and versatile leather espadrilles of the very highest quality using carefully selected materials and traditional techniques.
- Our finely woven, traditional jute soles are spun from natural fibre chosen and tested for its strength. All our jute soles are sourced from a specialist factory in the Spanish province of Murcia.
- Each shoe is finished with a custom-made, DRILLES-branded sole made from natural rubber - we do not use synthetic rubber. The sole protects the jute from damp and dirt and is bonded to the jute to ensure our espadrilles are a strong as possible. A pair of DRILLES is far from being a one season wonder.
- DRILLES are fully leather lined and fitted with a soft cushioned insole – we’ve designed them to be comfortable all day and everyday.
- Made in soft yet long-lasting Nappa leather, chosen for comfort, colour and class.
- Our signature spot. Each colour-way comes with a different coloured 'Drill'
- Each pair of DRILLES is hand-stitched by a small group of carefully selected, specialist craftspeople who work from their homes in the Spanish province of Alicante, and each pair is finished at workshops in Elda, a small town known for its rich history in shoe-making.
- Your DRILLES will arrive in a simple brown box. Because we realise you might throw this away we have made it in un-dyed, fully recyclable and bio-degradable paper. We also include a protective cotton bag for keeping your DRILLES in tip top condition on those rare occasions that they are not what you want to wear.
