Castañer’s journey began with the iconic jute wedge, a collaboration with Yves Saint Laurent that revolutionised the fashion industry. Since then, it has never stopped, combining traditional craftsmanship with sustainable materials to create shoes that are as beautiful as they are timeless.
In particular, the Castañer Curated Edition embodies the essence of uniqueness: each piece, made with fine materials and shaped by expert hands, is the result of a careful selection, in which every detail reflects the precision and dedication of a craft refined over time. This line is characterised by the use of high-quality suede certified by the Leather Working Group (LWG), a sustainable and luxurious material with a distinctive soft texture and matte finish.
The Ready-to-Wear line, on the other hand, represents the most avant-garde collection, bringing the latest trends to the Castañer universe. Each piece is uniquely designed and handmade with fine materials, combining contemporary style and craftsmanship.
