How to use "Espadrilles" in context?

Espadrilles have been around since the 18th century and are famed for their protection against sunburn, salt water and sand. The upper part of the espadrille is made of a light, flexible fabric, and the sole is made of hard material, so that they can be easily walked in.

What distinguishes a pair of espadrilles from other sandals is the espadrille's wooden insole, which takes the weight off the ball of the foot and releases the pressure on the ankle, promoting better blood flow. The wooden insole also reduces the fatigue of the foot and prevents blisters.
