Our Story

Welcome to HANDMADE®️!

We're here to take you on a vibrant journey through craftsmanship, tradition, and sheer joy. We keep family-owned workshops in Spain alive by creating exceptional, one-of-a-kind shoes that don't just dress your feet but tell a story of heritage, artistry, and passion. The founding family have been working with esparto, the material used to make Espadrilles for 3 generations already.

In the image below, on the very left, you can see Patricio Moreno, in 1946, wearing Espadrilles and working the field.

We handcraft unique shoes, and then we turn them into an experience.

Crafted with Love and Skill

At the heart of HANDMADE®️ are our people – our talented artisans. With skills passed down through generations, each pair of shoes is handcrafted with precision, love, and a whole lot of heart. We're committed to using the finest materials and time-honored techniques to create shoes that are not just accessories but expressions of individuality and excellence. Our customers get to see that in real-time, in person, in our stores.
