Bandolino Women’s Kendri Espadrille Wedge Sandals
The Kendri espadrille wedge sandals bring effortless elevation to your warm-weather wardrobe. We designed these sandals with a wrapped jute platform and a 3-inch wedge heel that delivers height without sacrificing stability.
We crafted the Kendri with a synthetic upper that mimics the supple hand-feel of leather while remaining easy to clean. Contrast topstitching traces the straps and buckle hardware, adding a handcrafted aesthetic to every pair.
Jute-wrapped wedge platform
The signature element of the Kendri is its braided jute wrapping that spirals around the wedge heel and platform. This natural fiber detailing delivers that coastal-espadrille look while maintaining structural integrity under daily use.
We apply a clear protective sealant to the jute to resist fraying and moisture. The wedge construction distributes your weight evenly from heel to forefoot, reducing pressure points compared to stiletto heels. The 0.75-inch platform at the toe balances the 3-inch heel height, so the effective pitch feels closer to a 2.25-inch lift.
Cushioned footbed & fit
Memory Foam insole
Our Memory Foam footbed contours to the unique shape of your arch and metatarsal heads. A layer of EVA beneath the foam provides rebound cushioning with each step, reducing fatigue during hours of standing or walking.
Sizing guidance
The Kendri runs true to US women’s sizing. If you typically wear a half size and prefer a snug fit, we recommend sizing down; if you like extra wiggle room for your toes, size up. The adjustable ankle strap accommodates slight size variations, so minor fit adjustments are easy to achieve without compromising stability.
