Peep Toe Wedge Sandals that Make Everyday Outfits Feel Polished

These women’s canvas wedge sandals are made for days when you want to look effortlessly polished without feeling overdressed. The clean canvas upper, peep toe silhouette and ribbon ankle ties make them a versatile choice for everyday dressing, summer occasions and travel, while the jute wedge heel adds flattering height with a relaxed finish.

Soft sheep leather lining gives these canvas espadrille wedge sandals a more refined feel from the moment you slip them on, while the slip-resistant rubber sole helps you move with confidence. Handcrafted in Kenya in small batches, they are designed for women who want comfortable wedge sandals with polish, purpose and ease.

Available in Black, Indigo and Cream.

Key features:

  • Timeless style that feels effortlessly polished
  • Flattering height with relaxed elegance
  • Clean canvas design that works with almost everything
  • Soft leather lining for a more luxurious feel
  • Handcrafted in Kenya with meaning behind every pair

Natural Materials

These closed toe espadrilles are crafted from premium natural materials chosen for both beauty and comfort. The uppers feature 100% cotton canvas, while the interior is lined with 100% sheep leather for exceptional breathability. The signature jute-wrapped wedge heel provides an effortlessly natural look, with a durable rubber outsole for reliable traction. The closed-toe design offers versatile coverage, making these espadrilles wedges perfect for all-day wear.

Composition:
• Outer: 100% Cotton (cotton canvas)
• Lining: 100% Sheep leather
• Insole: 100% Sheep leather
• Sole: Rubber
• Wedge height: 7cm (2.7 inches)
• Handcrafted in Kenya

Size & Fit

Our wedges run wide. We recommend ordering your usual size for the perfect fit. If you're between sizes, we suggest sizing down as the fabric and leather will soften and mold to your foot with wear. The adjustable ribbon ankle ties allow for a customized fit throughout the day.

Care

Keep your shoes looking beautiful for years with proper care. The cotton fabric and leather materials age gracefully when treated well.

Care Instructions:

• Remove loose dirt and dust with a soft bristle brush.
• For stubborn marks, gently wipe with a slightly damp cloth or sponge.
• Allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight.
• Apply leather conditioner occasionally to the leather lining to maintain suppleness.
• Store in a cool, dry place using shoe trees to maintain shape.
• Avoid prolonged exposure to water or extreme temperatures.

Free Shipping & Returns

Free Shipping from Melbourne: All orders ship free and are dispatched within 24 hours via express delivery with full tracking.

Style Meets Comfort

These heels prove that versatile style and comfort can coexist beautifully. The 7cm wedge offers graceful elevation while distributing weight evenly across the foot - unlike stilettos that place pressure on the ball. The refined closed-toe silhouette transitions effortlessly from office meetings to evening gatherings, while the adjustable ribbon ankle ties ensure a secure, custom fit throughout the day. They're made for day-to-night styling.
