Guess what Mediterranean sandal junkies! You no longer have to travel all the way to Spain to get your hands on a pair of Ishvara Sandals. These adorable & super comfortable Ishvara sandals have made it stateside. One by Ishvara Albaracas sandals can be found on ShopBop! I am totally head over heels in lust with them. They are made from the finest cowhide leather & come in a fabulous array of colors. I want so badly to buy one of each color, but my wallet is begging me to choose only one. With that said, it looks like Turquesa is coming home with me!
"In Hindu philosophy, ishvara is the Sanskrit word for lord or god. “There must be soul in what you do,” says Jose Marco, the designer of the sandal brand that bears the name. “Whatever it may be — cooking, caring for a plant, choosing a beautiful piece of leather to make sandals — soul is needed.” Having designed and sold Ishvara’s classic tanned-leather Mediterranean sandals from a tiny beach storefront in Formentera, Spain (the brand is based in Ibiza), since 1982, Marco is finally bringing his casual, colorful flats to the states." - TMagazine
Which color is your favorite?
I love them too, the colors are awesome! I'm a bit hesitant though because I didn't see "modeling" pics of them.. In fact I was googling to see if there is any when I found your post! I'd love to see them in action before buying one.. I'm also not sure if they run bigger or not (never bought a pair from this brand) and I'm wondering if the rubber on the back is comfortable or not.. lots of questions lol would appreciate it if you review yours once you get it! I want the yellow one sooo bad :D
ReplyDeleteI just purchased the most beautiful corn flower blue colored pair of sandles, they are a size 39 and they feel like heaven, I wear a size 9 shoe and these fit like a glove, I was hesitant at first and tried the size 40 but it was too big. I found mine in at the Crystal Cove shopping open air mall in Newport Beach, and they worth all of the money I paid for them.
DeleteOooops my mistake! Just realized I read it wrong on shopbop, the sole is rubber not the strap. That's good to know, got one question answered lol! Sorry for the mistake n thanks for your post! x
ReplyDeleteHi Love,
DeleteGreat questions. You made some great points & actually made me put my order on "hold." Apparently Saks Fifth Avenue carries these sandals as well as Shopbop. I am planning on running over to Saks this week to actually try them on & when I do, I will take pics & review.

Lindsey
These are really cute! Love the teal.
