Nothing screams summer like a pair of espadrilles — prove me wrong. I personally love these Joules ones because of their closed toes — I live in New York City and am not a fan of open-toed shoes, even in the summertime. I thought this bee motif was quirky and fun, but there are also stripes, leopard print, florals, and other peppy patterns for sale. Additional noteworthy details include a jute toe cap, elasticized side panels for comfort, and a rubber sole. “They are cool and lightweight and come in such cute styles! These joules espadrilles are very comfortable, they come with a comfy lining between you and the canvas,” one reviewer revealed.
