JUNGLA

Jungla is a Spanish footwear brand known for hand sewn leather in vibrant colors. According to our collection page, the brand was founded in 1932, is still family run by the Benedi family's third generation, and makes every pair in Spain using soft, high quality leathers and artisan techniques. At Sole Provisions, the Jungla collection includes sandals, mary janes, boots, and shoes for women, and it sits naturally beside our wider women's footwear, women's sandals, and women's boots selections.

Many European shoe brands lean toward neutral colors and quiet styling. Jungla does the opposite, using bold colorways and organic shapes that make each pair easy to recognize. That personality is paired with comfort thinking, including cushioned footbeds and soft leathers, so the shoes can work for long days as well as for statement outfits. The sections below explain the brand's story, its construction, and how to choose a pair.

A Family Brand With Nearly a Century of Craft

Our collection page describes Jungla as starting out as a small artisan workshop in 1932 and staying family owned ever since. Today the Benedi family's third generation runs the company, which helps explain why the shoes still carry a strong sense of craft. A brand that has stayed in the same family tends to keep its techniques and standards consistent, and that shows in the focus on hand finishing and leather quality.

Hand Sewn Dotted Stitch Construction

Jungla's signature is its hand sewn, dotted stitch construction. The visible stitching gives each pair a crafted, textured look that machine made shoes rarely match, and it is a big part of why the brand stands out from more minimal labels. Details vary from style to style, so read each product description to see how your pair is finished. Hand sewn shoes are best treated gently, so avoid soaking them and let them dry naturally if they get wet.

Soft, Treated Leathers

The collection uses soft, treated leathers, along with suede on some styles. Soft leather conforms to the shape of the foot as it breaks in, which can make a shoe feel more comfortable over time. Suede has a velvety finish that suits boots and chukkas, but it needs gentle care, so use a suede brush and protector from our shoe care collection and keep suede away from heavy rain. Smooth leather styles can be wiped clean with a soft cloth and conditioned from time to time.

Cushioned Footbeds for All Day Wear

Jungla pairs its design with cushioned footbeds, which add comfort under the foot for long days. Cushioning is personal, and the amount of support varies by style, so check each product page for details. If you want to add your own support, check whether the style has a removable insole, then explore our shoe inserts and arch support shoes. For medical questions about your feet, check with a healthcare professional.

Sandals and Mary Janes

Sandals and mary janes are central to the collection. A sandal in a bold color can be the focus of a summer outfit, while a mary jane gives a classic, slightly retro shape that works with dresses, skirts, and cropped trousers. Browse more in our women's sandals and mary jane shoes, and compare Biza and Django & Juliette for other colorful options.

Boots and Chukkas

For cooler months, the collection includes boots and chukka styles, such as the Moana Chukka and the Pass Side Tie in multi color finishes. A chukka is an easy boot to wear with jeans and casual outfits, and a side tie adds a relaxed, adjustable fit. Pair them with women's socks for extra warmth, and browse more in our women's boots. Styles and colors change often, and discounted pairs can sell out, so check availability on each product page.

Styling Colorful Leather Shoes

Bold shoes work best when the rest of the outfit stays simple. Let a bright sandal or multi color shoe be the focus with neutral clothes, or choose an earthy color such as olive or steel if you want something easier to match. Rotate pairs so each can air out between wears, and store leather shoes away from direct heat. Add a coordinating bag from our bags collection to finish the look.

Choosing the Right Fit

Width and sizing details are not listed on the collection page, so check each product page and try a pair in store when you can. If you need more room, browse our wide width shoes. For a personal fitting, visit one of our Sole Provisions locations, or read more in our educational hub. Try shoes later in the day, when feet tend to be fullest.
