HERITAGE

THE FIRST CASTAÑER WORKSHOP WAS FOUNDED IN 1927. SINCE THEN WE HAVE TURNED A SHOE OF POPULAR ORIGIN INTO A SOPHISTICATED PRODUCT, CLOSELY LINKED TO DESIGN AND FASHION. OUR MEETING WITH YVES SAINT LAURENT IN THE 70S MADE HISTORY IN THE FASHION WORLD, TOGETHER WE CREATED THE FIRST ESPADRILLE WITH WEDGE. TODAY, AFTER 90 YEARS, OUR PRODUCT HAS REACHED THE WHOLE WORLD, BUT OUR ESSENCE REMAINS AS AUTHENTIC AS IT WAS IN 1927: TRADITION, CRAFTSMANSHIP AND NATURAL MATERIALS.

CHRONOLOGY: 1927

THE CASTAÑER BRAND OPENS ITS FIRST WORKSHOP IN BAÑOLAS. LUÍS CASTAÑER AND HIS COUSIN TOMÁS SERRA WERE THE DRIVING FORCES BEHIND THE FIRST INDUSTRIALISATION OF THE FIRM. TOMÁS SERRA THEN DESIGNED THE MACHINES, NOW OVER A HUNDRED YEARS OLD, WHICH ARE STILL USED IN THE WORKSHOP TODAY.

THE ESSENCE OF STYLE

THIS FOOTWEAR OF POPULAR ORIGIN IS A FASHION SYMBOL THAT CONQUERS NUMEROUS PERSONALITIES OF THE STAR SYSTEM. CHARISMATIC ARTISTS, ACTORS, MODELS AND ARISTOCRATS HAVE WORN OUR ESPADRILLES AROUND THE WORLD.

THE CASTAÑER ESPADRILLE HAS BECOME THE ESSENCE OF TIMELESS CHIC, A TIMELESS CLASSIC THAT NEVER GOES OUT OF FASHION.


THIS MODEL THAT WAS BORN AS A RESULT OF THE REQUEST OF YVES SAINT LAURENT IN THE 70S, HAS BECOME A "MUST" OF THE SUMMER COLLECTIONS. TODAY, THE MOST INTERNATIONAL INFLUENCERS AND IT GIRLS CONTINUE TO SHOW THEIR PASSION FOR CASTAÑER IN THEIR MOST DESIRED STYLES.
