Elegant and endlessly versatile, the Mafalda in Black is a true wardrobe essential. Crafted from smooth cotton velvet and lined in breathable cotton, this refined flat brings ease and elegance together in perfect balance. The silhouette is inspired by classic Spanish espadrilles reinterpreted with a modern and low profile form.

A cushioned insole provides soft support, while the flexible sole made from recycled rubber offers resilience and freedom of movement. Handmade in Spain in small batches, each pair represents a commitment to slow fashion, quality materials and enduring style.

Flabelus shoes run small, so we recommend sizing up for the best fit.

    A new addiction

    These are wonderful shoes - elegant and soft, easy to wear. Really beautiful on. They are on the small side, but the fabric has some give. I’m a true 6.5 (39.5) and the 7 (40) was spot on, with no room to spare. So size up half a size at least.

    Disappointing

    Not as comfortable/elegant as they look on your photographs. Too expensive for something one can only wear in the house (not suitable or acceptably good looking for outside). Sad.

    Lovely but size up

    I am going to come clean immediately and say I didn’t buy these shoes at Sahara, but at a Flabelus store which I just happened to pass. I went into the store because some reviews have suggested sizing is a problem, and as I have difficult feet following some foot and ankle surgery I thought it was best to actually try various sizes. These are indeed small, and I had to go up 2 sizes from my usual 40 to 42! So I just want to say don’t be surprised if you have to go beyond what you would think. Once I had the right size they were fabulous - very comfortable and gorgeous in quality and colour. They look quite Venetian! I have a wide foot, and perhaps if you have a slimmer foot you won’t need to go up as much as I did, but they are definitely short. I couldn’t even get the 41 on, but the 42 is perfect. Now I know my size I will be able to order any future pairs from Sahara.
