Espadrille Stock Update - Tuesday 14th July

We are still very low on espadrille stock. A small delivery of plain espadrilles arrived last week, but these sold very quickly as many preople had reserved their sizes. Our manufacturer is sending us all the stripy espadrilles they have in their warehouse this week and we are expecting another delivery of plain around then as well. Unfortunately, today is Bastille Day in France so we won’t be able to get an a progress report until tomorrow.

Updates on availability will be published here first, so to find out as soon as new stock arrives why not bookmark our RSS feed.

Thank you for your patience.

Espadrille Stock Update

Following exceptional demand over the last few weeks we are currently experiencing low stock levels on many of our ranges. Although we received new stock last week this has all but been snapped up. We are in contact with our manufacturers and are expecting a delivery of stripy espadrilles very soon and are seeking the same for our plain espadrilles.

We are very sorry if you can’t find what you are looking for in your size. If you would like to email us we will contact you as soon as we have an expected delivery date.

Apologies once again.

Payment Processing Problems

Apologies to all espadrille customers who experienced problems this afternoon completing their orders.

Our payment provider, SagePay, had some 'technical' difficulties and we believe a message was being displayed that the site was down for maintenance. We have spoken to SagePay support and tested the payment process ourselves and everything is now working as normal.

Apologies once again, but this was beyond our control

The Espadrille Tablecloth Collection

Espadrille aren't just the UK's premier supplier of espadrilles, we also supply a range of other products from the Basque region of France, and following our weekend rush on espadrille shoes we thought it we would take the opportunity to showcase another of our favourites, our tablecloth range.



All of our tablecloths will make a feature of your table and if you are eating out of doors on these balmy nights they will bring a touch of buzzing Biarritz or chic St Jean de Luz to your garden.

They are manufactured in the Basque region to the very highest standards, which we can personally vouch for having visited the factory and witnessed the quality control first hand.

Each range comes in a variety of sizes, some including round and have matching napkins and in some instance matching espadrilles as well!

Noir Black Espadrille Shoe

Back in black. Today's feature is the black espadrille known as the Noir. The Noir Espadrille is our second most popular line, being only just behind the Marine. The Noir is a very popular range with our male customers and therefore we carry larger sizes.

There may be cheaper espadrille shoes but will they last out your holiday, let alone the season. Espadrille ships to customers around the world and our postage rates are highly competitive as we charge for the actual cost of postage.

We Love Espadrilles

Espadrille is the UK's leading supplier of quality Plain and striped espadrille shoes imported directly from France.



We stand by the quality of our products and therefore we will not import from the Far East, China or manufacturers in Bangladesh. Although you can buy cheaper espadrille shoes you might find they do not even last out your holiday!

Espadrille ships to customers around the world and our postage rates are very competitive. At Espadrille we only charge for the actual cost of postage and handling rather than some sites that charge a flat amount for each shoe. The flat charge is fine if you are only ordering one shoe, but gets very expensive and profitable for the supplier, when you order multiple items at the same time.

We will be using this blog to publish information on our ranges of espadrilles so please come back regularly to see what's new.

Espadrille also supply tradditional striped Basque linens and the these products will be listed in the Basque Linen blog.

Thank you for visiting our espadrille blog.
