In 1927 the first Castañer workshop was founded, since then Castaner have turned a popular form of footwear into a sophisticated product closely associated with design and fashion. Our encounter with Yves Saint Laurent in the ‘70s made history in the world of fashion, and together we created the first-ever wedge espadrille. Today, after 90 years, our product has a worldwide reach, but our essence continues being as authentic as it was in 1927: tradition, craftsmanship and natural materials.
