All about Castañer
Castañer sandals, Castañer shoes and Castañer boots evoke a playful and fun attitude to your wardrobe. Castañer’s wedge sandals, from a reasonable 5 cm to a dizzying 11 cm, are mostly wrapped in hemp rope as well as these unusual materials: woven straw, rattan and wicker. Castañer has been known to also combine materials such as seersucker or patent leather into their sandals.
History 1927 The Castañer Company, as it is today, was founded in 1927 by Luis Castañer and Tomas Serra. It was the developing result of an initial espadrille workshop, whose business goes back in their family to the year 1776, when the first espadrille maker Rafael Castañer was born. They are very proud to have spanned four different centuries.
1936 The company went through many difficult times, such as the Civil War in 1936, when it was nationalized because its production was of military interest. Soldiers were sent to the front lines wearing espadrilles and in the 1950’s the company faced a major crisis with the arrival of vulcanization and injection and the creation of the well-known 'Chirucas'.
1960 In the mid 1960’s, with their parents, Lorenzo and Isabel, already running the business, and during a Trade Fair in Paris, the foremost designer of the time, YSL, ordered a high-heeled espadrille, a real novelty which had never been produced in all the centuries of the espadrille existence. This was the launching point of the company, as it is today. In fact, the espadrille suddenly changed from a shoe for country folk to a luxury fashion footwear article.
2006 Through those years, Castañer has been gradually growing and the collection now includes Castañer sandals, Castañer shoes and Castañer boots. Exports to countries such as Japan, the EU, the USA, Switzerland, South Africa, Hong Kong, Taiwan etc., currently make up 60% of their output. Their articles are bought by high fashion customers in these countries and they are found in the wardrobe of film stars, glamorous ladies and famous people. Moreover, Castañer manufactures for some of the most prestigious brand names in the world of fashion and luxury products.
Castañer has reinvented the espadrille, a 200 year old item, and kept it fresh in a time when everything seems "so 10 minutes ago".

Everything fit fine (width and length) but the ankle strap was at least 1 1/2" too short (and I have thin ankles!!!) Bummer bc they are so cute!!

I’m usually a 5.5 and I ordered these in a 5 despite other reviews saying to order up if in between sizes. They fit perfectly! Super comfortable and give me great height.

Well made and I love the v cut of the toe box. Unfortunately for me, the toe box was a bit too deep (I have very low volume, narrowish feet), and yet somehow the heel felt a bit too shallow. Would’ve loved to have kept them!

My heels slipped out so the back was too big and the toe section was buckling and didn’t lie flat. Looks very low quality - returning

I BOUGHT THEM BECAUSE I NEED PLATFORM SHOES FOR MY PLANTERS FACIITIS BUT THESE SHOES HURT A LOT BECAUSE THEY SCRATCH THE TOP OF THE FOOT AND YOU END UP BLISTERED.

Very cute. but runs large. Also not the most comfortable and rubs on my toes. I always have to bandage my toes up before wearing even if only for 10!min

Although the shoe fit, when tightly tied, the back kept shifting and slipping off the heel.

Difficult to review because the left toe box was very big (I could pull my foot out) and the right was ok...I just couldn't walk with the left one so loose. And now they're out of my size.

Lovely shoes. I usually wear a 42 but - depending on the brand - a 41 will sometimes work, so I took my chances. These were incredibly small, I could not even get them onto my foot. Definitely order up!

Cute, and I usually love this brand, but the strap has a bulky seam that hits right below the ankle, very uncomfortable. Had to return.

The fit was true to size but the upper part cut into the top of my foot.
