Turia Plata Fabric
Crafted with a radiant silk upper and a breathable fabric lining, this Toni Pons espadrille offers a refined approach to warm-weather dressing. This elegant closed-toe espadrille balances authentic Spanish craftsmanship with a contemporary metallic finish, providing a sophisticated option for summer events, holidays, and relaxed evening wear.
Designed for secure, all-day wear, this shoe features supportive elastic cross-straps that adapt gently to your instep, ensuring a comfortable fit without restricting movement. The Turia rests on a classic woven jute sole, providing a subtle 6cm lift that is thoughtfully offset by a 2cm platform. This thoughtful construction reduces the internal incline, allowing you to stay comfortably on your feet for longer periods. Beneath the natural jute, a flexible rubber outsole offers reassuring grip for confident walking on city pavements and coastal promenades alike.
Handmade in Spain by skilled artisans, the Toni Pons Turia metallic espadrille seamlessly blends traditional shoemaking with wearable everyday elegance, delivering a comfortable and beautifully constructed foundation for your summer wardrobe.

Caring for Your Toni Pons Turia
- Cleaning the Silk Upper: The metallic silk upper requires a gentle touch. Wipe away daily surface dust with a soft, dry cloth. For light marks, dab the area carefully with a barely damp cloth. Avoid harsh rubbing or chemical shoe cleaners, as these can damage the delicate silk fibres and dull the metallic finish.
- Protecting the Jute Sole: Authentic braided jute is a natural fibre that easily absorbs moisture. It is best to keep the woven wedge dry to maintain its structure and prevent the rope from swelling or unravelling. If you are caught in a light shower, simply let the shoe dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators.
- Maintaining the Details: To remove dried dirt from the jute wrapping, gently sweep the sole with a soft-bristled brush, always following the natural direction of the braid.
