Cleaning
Leather upper: Wipe the metallic leather gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth to remove daily dust and light marks.
Jute wedge: Use a soft, dry bristle brush to lightly sweep away dirt from the woven jute sections.
Rubber base: The non-slip rubber sole can be wiped down with a damp cloth or sponge as needed to clear away debris.
Maintenance
Apply a dedicated leather protector spray before your first wear to shield the soft metallic finish from stains. We recommend treating the leather occasionally with a gentle conditioner to keep the material supple and prevent it from drying out over time.
Storage
Store this shoe in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the metallic finish. Stuff the toes with soft, colourless tissue paper to help maintain their structured shape when you are not wearing them.
Troubleshooting
Natural jute can absorb water and weaken if it becomes soaked. If you happen to get caught in a sudden summer shower, allow the espadrilles to dry naturally at room temperature. Keep them well away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can damage both the leather and the jute.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Toni Pons Laila-P Plati fit?
This espadrille generally fits true to size, offering a standard width for most foot shapes. If a half size is usually required, the brand recommends choosing the next full size up for the most comfortable fit. The elasticated back strap also helps to secure the foot naturally without restrictive pinching.
Is this wedge comfortable for all-day wear?
The design is well suited to extended periods on foot. The authentic jute wedge provides a 7cm lift, but the cleverly integrated 2cm platform reduces the net elevation to a gentle 5cm. Combined with a breathable leather lining, this structure offers steady support from morning to evening.
Will the Toni Pons Laila-P Plati suit a wider or narrower foot?
The soft metallic leather upper adapts beautifully to a standard width, while the flexible construction offers a small amount of give. The elasticated slingback strap provides a tailored feel that accommodates slight variations in foot shape, though the shoe is primarily designed for a regular fit rather than specifically wide or narrow profiles.
What level of arch support does this espadrille offer?
While it does not feature a heavily contoured orthotic footbed, the solid jute wedge provides a stable and structured base. The leather-lined inner sole offers a smooth, supportive surface that provides a comfortable foundation for daily smart-casual wear.
How durable are the materials used in this shoe?
Crafted by artisans in Spain, the Toni Pons Laila-P Plati is hand-stitched using strong cotton thread to securely bind the leather upper to the jute sole. Furthermore, the addition of a flexible, non-slip rubber base protects the natural jute from ground wear, ensuring the shoe remains a reliable choice for warm weather when kept appropriately dry.
