The grided upper has become a staple for Isleñas brand identity. This patchwork technique allows us to play with a multitude of colors within a small space to create a vibrant look representing our Caribbean vibe.

You can expect to see the same technique applied across different style variations throughout our core collection. This time we decided to develop a 'two strap grid' upper on a leather and rubber sole instead of the original jute sole. 

This is a light, flexible slide sandal that is both casual and visually intriguing.

About the manufacturing

With this style we add Latin American manufacturing hands to our processes; a wonderful multi-generational factory. While espadrilles (everything that is built on a jute bottom) will always remain our in-house production in our studio in Puerto Rico, we aspire to be able to keep growing our offering by partnering with factories and organizations both in PR and Latin America. In PR we are developing our own system from scratch. Latin American countries, like Colombia, Brazil, Mexico, have an established footwear manufacturing industry. This was part of our strategic plan since we launched. In 2020, Karla and Norián traveled to meet factories in person but paused this idea because of the pandemic. In 2022 we picked up where we left off, and started our first relationships in Colombia because it is only a 3hr plane ride from our base in San Juan, PR!

Designed in Puerto Rico. Made in Colombia.
