Together with master artisans you will craft your own pair of Espadrilles. Handpicking out of 100k+ different combinations, you will chose the size of the base, the stitching style and the color and type of the laces. Once done, you will learn the different ways to lace them up!

You can choose to enjoy the experience with cava or non alcoholic drinks, just tell us and we will have everything ready for you.

At the end, when stepping into your own creation of Espadrilles, you will feel like a true artisan. You'll get a wearable memory of Barcelona (one that it is hardly available to visitors) and a really cool story to tell. Are you ready?
