Committed to the fine art of shoe craft.

Craftsmanship isn't just our legacy, it's our obsession. Since 1949 we've adhered to a strict set of standards that yield the best made, best fitting shoes. Uncompromising in our pursuit of quality, we never have and never will settle for anything less than footwear perfection. Why should you?

An exquisite intersection of comfort and style.

Who says your most comfortable shoes can't also be your most attractive? Nobody told the Ara designers that style and comfort are mutually exclusive. We combine superb fit, tremendous shock absorption and refreshing breathability with fine European styling to produce something unmistakably Ara.
