AERA New York shoes use Italian sizing, and fit can vary slightly depending on the style. Many AERA styles are designed to run true to size, so in most cases, ordering your regular size is the best place to start. For the most accurate guidance, we recommend checking the Size, Fit & Care section on the individual product page before ordering.

AERA New York creates women’s shoes using certified vegan materials, with a focus on modern performance, comfort, and finish. The brand positions its footwear around a more responsible approach to luxury, and describes its shoes as Certified Vegan, Carbon Neutral, and handcrafted in Italy. AERA is also recognized as the first B Corp in luxury footwear.

AERA recommends cleaning vegan leather, suede, or velvet uppers by gently wiping the surface with a damp cloth, taking care not to create excessive friction. The brand does not recommend using soap, polish, or other treatments, as these may affect the material. Storing your shoes carefully between wears can also help preserve their shape and finish over time.

AERA New York combines modern design with Italian craftsmanship and a clearly defined sustainability model. The brand describes its footwear as Certified Vegan, Carbon Neutral, and handcrafted in Italy, and it is also the first B Corp in luxury footwear. For clients looking for women’s shoes that balance polish, practicality, and a more conscious material approach, that combination is a meaningful point of distinction.
