History

Founded in 2009 in Porto Alegre by brothers Catullo and Vinicius Cassol, Aragana incorporated southern Brazilian regionalism into contemporary apparel. The brand focused on reinterpreting traditional alpargata footwear for urban environments. It influenced the integration of Gaucho cultural elements into mainstream Brazilian fashion. This development coincided with a broader industry shift toward local production and the utilization of regional heritage within modern design frameworks.
