The Papaya is the most dressed-up sandal Fleeters makes. Cross straps in Italian leather lay over the foot with a precision that belies how light they feel.

Front and back adjust independently, and the flat zero-drop sole keeps everything honest.

The Gold Brown combines smooth caramel leather with a strip of mirror gold, the kind of detail that does its job quietly.

Materials

Upper & Lining: Italian leather from a tannery committed to responsible, traceable, and low-impact production
Footbed: Cork 84%, Natural latex 16%
Sole: TPU made with 70% recycled material

Care & Maintenance

Leather is a living material. It develops a patina, softens and moulds to your foot over time, as long as you care for it properly.

We chose an exceptional leather, selected for its natural suppleness, breathability and durability. Sourced from an Italian tannery committed to the most responsible practices in the industry, certified LWG Gold Standard and ISO 14001, it is crafted to combine strength, elegance and breathability.

Such leather deserves simple but regular attention:

  • Clean regularly with a soft cloth (slightly damp if needed)
  • Condition regularly with a quality leather cream or balm
  • Protect with a waterproofing spray, especially before first use

Well-maintained leather does not age, it improves.

SANDALES TOUT CONFORT

Pour ces premieres sandales chez Fleeters c'est pas mal, elles sont confortables, on est très à l'aise.
JUSTE UN BEMOL à améliorer pour la suite = le devant de la Sandale est très allongés,elles mériteraient d'être un peu Raccourci.

Agreables et esthetiques

Agréables à porter, les différents velcros et boucles sont appréciables pour ajuster au pied. La plateforme est quand même un peu large.

They are comfortable and seem to do the job.

They are comfortable and seem to do the job l bought them for. Walking is a pleasure and these sandals help to achieve that goal.

Flexible to move,
by design

A foot is made of 26 bones, 33 joints, 107 ligaments, 19 muscles & 3 arches!

Arches are flexible, acting as springboards to propel the body into movement. For this to happen, it needs to change shape.

We let this incredible mechanics function well with flexible shoes.
