The Heritage of the Spanish Valenciana The Viguera Elista 2011 is the most elegant version of the traditional Valenciana pump. Designed for women who seek the natural breeze of jute without sacrificing the poise of a closed shoe, this model features a refined V-cut side and the iconic braided ribbon ankle tie. Handcrafted in La Rioja, Spain, since 1978, it offers a sophisticated silhouette with superior coverage and timeless character.

Available in Two Distinct Editions:

• Desert: Premium suede in a matte Cool Taupe. The ultimate neutral that anchors any summer outfit without visual noise.

• Sahara: Smooth metallic leather in soft Champagne Gold. An event-ready espadrille that remains versatile thanks to the cream textile ribbons and rustic jute wedge.

Technical Summary:

• Upper: Suede (Desert) or Metallic Leather (Sahara).

• Insole: Fully cushioned leather for "all-day" wear.

• Outsole: Natural jute wedge with a durable rubber grip base.

• Closure: Traditional wrap-around braided textile ribbons.

• Origin: 100% Artisan handmade in Spain.

Why it’s for you: Perfect if you want a wedge with more presence than a standard sandal but more breathability than a formal heel. It’s the "all-terrain" choice for summer weddings, garden parties, or elevated daily wear.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):

1. Is the Elista 2011 true to size? Yes, it has a standard fit. If you are between sizes, we recommend the larger one, as feet tend to expand in the summer heat.

2. How do I tie the ankle ribbons? Pass the ribbons behind the ankle from the sides, cross them at the front, and tie a secure knot or bow. It becomes intuitive after a few wears!

3. Can the jute sole get wet? Jute handles light humidity, but it is not designed for rain or immersion. Avoid wearing them at the water’s edge or in heavy downpours.

4. Which colour is more versatile? Desert (Taupe) is a master of neutrality. However, Sahara (Champagne) is surprisingly easy to style as the jute base tones down the metallic shine.

5. Is there a comfort difference between Suede and Metallic? Both share the same cushioned insole. Suede is slightly softer from day one, while the metallic leather will soften and adapt to your foot after a couple of outings.
