In the panorama of luxury footwear, few brands can boast a history as fascinating and rich in tradition as Castaner. For decades, this Spanish brand has stood out for its production of espadrilles, footwear that embodies the summer style and timeless charm of Mediterranean fashion. With meticulous attention to detail and sophisticated design, Castaner has become the point of reference for lovers of luxury espadrilles around the world.
The origin of espadrilles dates back centuries, when Basque fishermen invented these shoes as a practical solution to deal with the harsh conditions of the sea. Made of canvas and characterized by the classic esparto cord sole, a hand-woven natural fibre, espadrilles were initially simple and functional footwear. However, with the intervention of Castaner, these traditional shoes have been transformed into true works of art, symbols of style and refinement.

Another very successful model is the Kenda espadrilles, characterized by a contemporary and bold touch. Its high wedge and leather upper are a perfect combination of comfort and refinement. Finally, the Chiara model is a modern version of the espadrilles, with a minimalist design and a low wedge. These are just some of the extraordinary proposals from Castaner, a brand that continues to amaze with its collection of iconic shoes.
The Castaner brand has been able to interpret the espadrilles trend with mastery, transforming them from traditional footwear into iconic fashion accessories. Thanks to the ingenuity and creativity of Lorenzo Castaner and his wife Isabel, the company revolutionized the concept of espadrilles, introducing bold color combinations, eye-catching patterns and sophisticated details. This stylistic audacity has captured the attention of stylists and celebrities around the world, bringing the Castaner espadrilles to the most prestigious catwalks and into the wardrobes of style icons.
The Castaner espadrilles were at the center of one of the most famous collaborations in the history of fashion. In the 1970s, Lorenzo Castaner and Isabel met legendary designer Yves Saint Laurent, resulting in a collaboration that would redefine the concept of luxury espadrilles. Together, they created the first model of wedge espadrilles, a revolution in the footwear industry. These elegant and refined espadrilles quickly captured the attention of the fashion world and women around the world, becoming a symbol of timeless style.
