WOMEN
Founded in Paris in 2012 by François du Chastel, a former investment banker, Chatelles began with a romantic gesture: a pair of bespoke slippers made for a woman he loved. This origin story is embedded in the brand’s identity, which champions the flat shoe as a chic and comfortable alternative to heels. The brand’s signature product is the slipper, a modern interpretation of the classic English gentleman's indoor shoe, redesigned for women, men, and children. Each pair is designed in Paris and crafted by artisans in small, family-owned factories in Portugal using high-quality Italian and Spanish leathers.
