VISCATA Sitges Espadrille Canvas Spain Handmade Men's Shoes with Breathable Organic Cotton Canvas 100% Natural Jute Midsole and Durable Rubber Sole for All Casual Occasions

I normally wear size 13, but after reading all the reviews here I was expecting the size 13 to be too small but I took a chance anyway. People are right, the shoes feel narrow and size 13 was very tight...at first. Having tried espadrilles before I knew that they do stretch after a while, and these were no different. For the first week they were very tight putting them on, but after 15 minutes or so they fitted properly (as always with espadrilles, no socks should be worn). In the second week, after wearing them for probably 10 times or so, they are no longer tight at all, not even when putting them on. They are now very comfortable! The quality seems good so far, and I was somewhat hesitant to spend so much on such simple shoes, but since they are original and imported I decided to take the chance. For those who think the shoes are too narrow, I do have somewhat wider feet (I never have to buy extra wide shoes however, I'm just a bit wider than a medium width) and these are just fine (again, after a couple of weeks of wear). Happy with my purchase and ready for summer!

Okay, here we go. These espadrilles are a great construction, well made shoe. I would say get used to them and really break them in before you go and try to walk around some music festival all day because they are not a soft shoe. Really have the feel as more of a driving moccasin. Sizing: Contrary to most of these reviews, these shoes DO NOT RUN TRUE TO SIZE. I wear a size 12 and finally ended up with a size 13.5 that fits well. They will break in a bit but when you can't force your foot in, try the next size up. In fact, I would HIGHLY recommend purchasing 1 and 1.5 sizes higher than your regular size and simply sending back the shoe that doesn't fit. I personally didn't do this. I ordered the 12, it didn't fit, so I sent it back. Then I ordered the 12.5, it didn't fit, so I sent it back, then I ordered the 13 and it didn't fit so I sent that one back too. Finally I ordered the 13.5 and they fit well. (Note, this is the only reason I did not give these shoes 5 stars, had the listing explained that the shoes ran 1.5 sizes small, I would have given 5 stars) Styling: Definitely an must add to your wardrobe if you're looking for something that goes well with a pair of nice shorts and a button down shirt. The kind of outfit you'd where to stroll around a city in the summer but also wouldn't be out of place walking into a nice restaurant. These shoes offer the perfect solution between sneakers and dress shoes. Plus you automatically look more cultured than the guy wearing white Dad sneakers with the athletic socks. Also being in my late 30's, Toms shoes were out of the question so Viscatas are a much classier choice. Tip of the day, don't wear socks with these. If you must, wear no show socks. Break-in: Being that these shoes are canvas, expect them to break in over time and they will widen. They WILL NOT lengthen so make sure the size is long enough to fit your feet. I wore mine around the house for about an hour or two a day for two days and they fit great. (Also a shoehorn is your friend in the beginning)

My shoe size is 11.5 or 12, depending on brands and I got the size 12 in these and they fit perfectly! I got these because I wanted something I could wear with shorts in the summer that wasn't too chunky, these shoes are pretty low-profile. They're simple enough that I've worn them with chinos and a button down to the office, as well as to summer parties and the park. There's a rubber sole under the jute bed so that the jute isn't exposed to erosion from the ground. They really let your feet breathe and they stay odor-free, even in the humid Maryland weather. I've only had them for a few months so I can't speak of longevity yet, but they've stayed intact and haven't torn or fallen apart at all. Easy to clean too! I think this color is the most susceptible to dirt so keep that in mind. Overall, I'm a fan!

I bought a US size 13 while my normal shoe size is 11.5 or 12, so make sure you order at least one size larger. The shoe looks great and seems well made. Classic style.

Leicht, luftig man fühlt sie kaum. Läuft sich sehr gut in ihnen. Warum soll ich 8 mehr Wörter schreiben wenn die 2 Sätze es sagen. Quatsch.

A tiny bit too large. But WONDERFUL, so well made. No comparison with badly made Tom's

Arrived today and fit perfectly. I ordered a UK 9.5 after previous reviews in reference to sizes which I found helpful. I am normally a UK 8.5 Which usually equates to a size 43 European. The pair that arrived today had 43 on the sole, go figure. That said they are good quality and colour. The advice from me is go a size bigger.

Other than the size , which seems little tight to the one , the product is simply amazing
