As the warm sun graces our days and the summer season beckons, it's time to refresh wardrobes and put our best foot forward. Allow me to introduce Castañer...a brand known for its beloved espadrilles. First developed in 1927, Castañer has remained dedicated to impeccable craftsmanship and timeless designs while transforming the humble espadrille into the sophisticated, sought-after summer sandal we see today. A defining moment of the brand happened in the 1970s when Castañer forged an iconic partnership with fashion-powerhouse, Yves Saint Laurent. Together, they pioneered the creation of the first wedge espadrille, a milestone that left an indelible mark on the fashion world. This groundbreaking collaboration propelled the brand to new levels of recognition and established Castañer as a leader in innovation and style. Today, after 90 years of dedicated craftsmanship, their products have traversed the globe, captivating fashion enthusiasts everywhere. Yet, amidst their global reach, they have remained rooted in an authentic essence, holding steadfast to core values of tradition, meticulous craftsmanship, and the use of natural materials.
Meet the cross-stack raffia sandal...the platform slip-ons that effortlessly add height while keeping your feet oh-so-comfortable.

The crisscross woven raffia adds a touch of style, while the contoured footbed offers supportive cushioning, lined with moisture-wicking, breathable neoprene fabric. With a durable, high-flex tread outsole, these sandals offer both stability and style. So, step into summer and combine fashion and comfort seamlessly.
