These are some of the sleekest espadrilles I’ve ever seen – these Steve Madden’s women’s espadrilles have the look of dressy yet understated sandals, yet their woven espadrille heel and black bordered heel bottom give them a unique look in a world of boring black pumps. They’re slip-ops, plus the dark soles have some traction on them, so they have all the benefits of more practical shoes but with the indisputable style of espadrilles.
