These beautifully handcrafted Menorcan Sandals also known as an Avarca, are made with real leather and each pair are truly unique and individual.
We love the signature peep toe design in all our Palmaira's. Lovingly handmade the peep toes may vary in size and are not to be deemed as a fault.
The Avarca originated from the Island of Menorca. It was formerly a traditional footwear used by the farmers and rural people as it was strong and adaptable to the Menorcan countryside.
The soles were originally made from old car tyres, as it was a readily available material. As the sandals grew in popularity across Spain many imitations arose but to be an authentic Avarca, the sandals must be made in full and by hand on the Island of Menorca.
In order to protect the heritage and authenticity of the sandals, the Menorcan government produced a tag to reflect this (which all Palmaira’s have). Our factory uses traditional methods, and we work with an incredible, well respected shoe designer, who has tweaked Palmaira’s to give the female foot the most flattering shape.
Metallic Palmairas are a soft leather and will 'give' quickly.

SIZING
Womens Size Conversion Chart
We recommend buying your Palmaira's quite snug as the leather softens and does give after a couple of wears.
If you are in between sizes you may be best to go down a size in our flat traditional avarcas unless you have a wide foot. Our espadrilles and wedges are a tighter and narrower fit. Please read our individual descriptions.
Our sandals are all lovingly handmade therefore each pair is unique and will vary in sizing slightly, please use our size chart below as a guide only. If you are unsure please get in contact as we are happy to help.

All our sandals are lovingly handmade. This sometimes results in a few flaws, or imperfections in the leather.
Leather is a natural product and as such, bares all hallmarks of its origin. Unique and individual markings may appear on a hide and should not be considered as defects. Instead they give the leather a unique identity.
Other reasons for imperfections could include, but not limited to, glue marks or scratches. As such these sandals are sold at a discounted price.
If you have any questions about this collection, please email enquiries@palmairasandalsaustralia.com
