In Seville, this highly rated espadrille workshop gives you a hands-on introduction to a traditional Spanish shoe. You will meet at a workshop stocked with materials, tools and finished products, and become an insider on the history of this humble people's shoe that evolved into a major fashion trend. The experience has been reviewed as a once-in-a-lifetime by more than 10,000 guests and was awarded Tripadvisor Travellers' Choice in 2021 and 2023; it is also recommended by BuzzFeed, The New York Times and others.
Together with master artisans you will craft your own pair of espadrilles. Out of several combinations you will choose the size of the base, the stitching style and the colour and type of laces, and you will learn different ways to lace them up. Along the way you will pick up practical skills and background stories about the craft. You will leave with a wearable souvenir hardly available to most visitors and a story to tell, feeling like a true artisan.
