About Arche
All about Arche
Arche shoes are made exclusively in France by a team of craft artisans devoted to bringing you the quality you deserve. Arche brings you a rich and inviting color palette gathered from the latest fashion trends. After much research into contours and shapes, Arche has devised shoes, boots, and sandals that will provide you with hours and hours of comfort and well being. Modern, simple, and durable, a timeless classic that has made Arche a "trademark" of great style. Arche brings you the best in supple European leathers and the softest nubucks. Arche´s unique care with the traditional tannery process allows these leathers to maintain their authentic look and feel.
Arche was established in Paris in 1968 by Pierre Robert Helaine with the philosophy: “If you can´t think, walk. If you are thinking too much, walk. If you are thinking bad thoughts, keep walking.”
Paris is where fashion begins and where all Arche products are designed. As a result, these Arche shoes, boots, and sandals easily accessorize and relate to the most current ready to wear, outerwear, and swimwear trends.
Arche begins with the belief that black and brown do not go with everything. Every Arche collection of shoes, boots, and sandals are then offered in a myriad of coloration that correspond exactly to fashion enabling our customer to always look her best.
All Arche shoes, boots, and sandals feature 100% natural latex cushioning for maximum durability, flexibility, and unrelenting shock absorption. Supple water and scratch-resistant nubuck leather repels the elements while creating a cozy and breathable home for the foot. All Arche shoes, boots, and sandals provide instant comfort that will create a bounce in each step.
For 40 years, Arche has been assembling its shoes, boots, and sandals in the Chateau Region of France, not far from Paris. Every pair of Arche shoes are handcrafted to perfection with the goal of providing the absolute best product possible.

Arche Reviews
I love Arche and have several pairs of their boots that I wear eight months of every year. With that said, the Laius is a big disappointment. Or, should I say, a SMALL disappointment?! These shoes are so narrow and the toe box is so shallow, they are hideously uncomfortable. Sizing up (from 41 to 42) does nothing but make the shoe loose in the heel.
Holy moly- these are like butter going on your feet. I normally wear high heels (3") but wanted a lower heel with comfortable to wear with pants as it can sometimes wear on you to always wear heels. I got these in the red and the cobalt. I wear a 8.5 and got the 9. I also tried the 8 but just too short so go up on 1/2 sizes. LOVE them, they are expensive but totally worth it for the comfort.
Wonderful shoe but too small. I normally wear a 7.5 but ordered a 7 because of recommendations on this site. I am afraid an 8 would be too big.
Great style for a super comfy ballet flat. Not really lined-- just high quality leather outer with the backside as the inside. For some reason I didn't find this very comfortable. Maybe because it wasn't smooth, kind of grippy suede. (Compare to AGL ballet flats which feel like heaven inside because of the smooth leather.) Insole is leather. Sole is squishy rubber which makes it very comfy. Unfortunately these seem super narrow to me. If they were wider I would've keep them.
Runs wide and long.
Love these--comfort as expected from Arche. The 9-1/2 was a perfect fit/usually a 10.
Absolutely gorgeous shoes. The leather is so soft, it molds to your feet and fits like a glove. I can't get over how comfortable these shoes are, and I love the compliments I receive every single time I wear these shoes. I have the white w/ black and "paradis," which is a dark coral. So beautiful!
These were cool but not enough arch support. Beautiful soft leather. Wanted to keep but knew they wouldn't make my sore feet happy.
Great shoe. Just bought my second pair the first pair was purchased for a European vacation and they were wonderful- versatile and comfortable right out of the box. Had to replace them because I wore them out. This new pair is equally awesome. Highly recommmend. They are very soft. Not much arch support. Great for wearing with skirts or pants. Pretty for a flat with great colors.
love the look, the leather so soft, I like the heel height and ankle wrap, which is not too tight, I need a larger size, so sending back.
I love these shoes! They provide excellent support (and I have plantars fasciitis) and my arches require it. They also have excellent heel cushion. They have a great style flair and I always get compliments on their look. I have two pair, one in black and one in tan. The only downside to note is that on my black pair ( which is two years old) there is a fair amount of loosening up. These are suede and they will stretch some. Also, they have a Velcro closure that can tighten. Thankfully the Velcro is on an ankle strap and on the back so there is no irritation as there can be when some Velcro closures are on the top of the foot or too close to the ankle bone.
Very nice style, very soft suede. The color is not red as pictured, definitely a rust color. Same on other websites I checked, so shame on Arche for not providing accuracy. It is pretty, but not what I was looking for.
I love Arche and was excited to try this particular style. It's narrow in the toes, unlike the Arche Baryky, which is likely the most perfect boot ever made. These did not work for me, sadly.
Wonderful soft leather and sole as usual, but also ... no arch support whatsoever, also as usual with this brand. Alas, I can't wear a flat without at least a little arch support, so these are going back to Zappos.
Great shoes! I got them in black and they can be classy or casual depending on the rest of your outfit. Also totally comfortable right out of the box, like all Arche shoes I own. I am thinking of saving money to buy a red pair if it ever comes back in stock in my size. I am usually 7.5 in sandals with somewhat narrow feet, but 7 fits me well in this style. Munro American makes the same style at half the price, but the fabric was not as soft.
I love the look of these shoes. They have been immediately very comfortable, no break in required. My only reservation is that, since they are so soft, they run a little large. I am usually a size 6 and ordered the 37. I think a 36 would be a better fit.
Beautiful quality shoes. Alas, I am returning them because the shoes curve inward pressing on my big toe and it's painful to walk. Size is perfect. Hopefully I can find an Arche style that is square at the toe
I bought these for a trip with a lot of walking. After one hour I had major blisters on my toes so I had to return these shoes as soon as I got home. I have had Arche shoes in the past and not had this problem. These shoes are very uncomfortable and two weeks after my trip, I still have blisters on my toes after these shoes. I expected to have good arch support but they had virtually none.
LOVE this shoe. Comfort meets style! I walked all day long and almost forgot I had shoes on. The pop of blue in the shoe footbed is really beautiful.
I bought these shoes thinking that the quality would be the same, since I had purchased this brand back in the 1980's. I am so very disappointed! The rubber soles are already wearing down and I have had these shoes less than 2 months! For the price, I expected a much higher quality. I would not recommend these shoes! Not worth the money at all!
