It was in 1960 that the brand “goes extra” was created by Mr. and Mrs. Arauzo. Today, their two sons have taken over the family business by founding the limited liability company “la maison de l’espadrille”.
Based in the southwest of France, they create new shapes, new models, work with new materials, such as leather, and develop the “mechanical” method while preserving the traditional and indispensable “hand-sewn” method. More than 300,000 classic and fancy espadrilles are manufactured each year.
