About this experience

In this workshop in Barcelona, participants will create their own pair of traditional Catalan espadrilles. The experience includes exploring the history of this footwear, selecting the size of the base, choosing stitching styles, and picking colors for the laces. Guided by master artisans, attendees will learn various lacing techniques. The workshop is suitable for anyone interested in crafting, but may not be ideal for those seeking a purely passive experience. It lasts for several hours, and guests will leave with a unique souvenir from Barcelona. Materials and tools are provided, but specific personal items or footwear are not included.
