Size Chart

What shoe size do I wear?

In Europe, shoe sizes are given in whole numbers, also known as "French sizes," "European sizes," or "German sizes."

These size markings are the most widely used in Europe, and most of us know our European/French shoe size precisely.

However, since whole sizes can be too inaccurate to guarantee the perfect fit, many of our models are also available in half sizes. For this, we use the UK sizing system. To ensure you always find the right ara shoe size, we have displayed both sizing systems side by side below.

In our video, we show you how practical zippers and elastic bands make it easier to put on your shoes and improve their fit.

Our shoe widths

In our collection, models start with width "F," which corresponds to a narrow fit. Width "G" is our "ara standard width." In many brands, most shoes have the standard width, designed for average foot shapes. For wider feet, classic shoes are often too tight and can pinch. That’s why we are especially proud of our selection of models in wide or comfortable widths. These shoes are marked with "H" and offer more space in the toe, sole, and instep areas. Don’t worry: the comfortable widths are subtle, and our pumps still retain their elegance!

Individual shaft widths for ara boots

Our customers are as unique as their legs. Our ara boots provide ultimate comfort thanks to an optimized shape. Just as with our shoe widths, we also offer different shaft widths for boots. This allows our customers to choose the shaft width that fits them best.
