Espadrilles are a typical form of Spanish summer footwear, with strong historical ties to the regions of Catalonia, Aragon, and the Basque Country. The word derives from the Catalan "espardenya" and refers to esparto grass , a plant indigenous to the south of Spain that is used to make ropes and basketry. [ 2 ]

Disposable working shoes very similar to espadrilles were at one time worn by sailors, particularly in hotter regions. Sailors would make their own shoes by hand while out at sea. They used a plaiting technique called sennit to create the soles and straps out of rope yarn and canvas, materials which were readily available on sailing ships.
