Feminine, Distinctive, Natural Fashion

You will always recognize an Arche shoe.  Clever shapes and styling in amazing colours.  A wonderful full and soft feel.  Classic, contemporary design and simplicity combined with natural technologies.  Entirely French-made in the Loire valley using 100% natural materials - soft nubuck, leather uppers and natural rubber soles.

There are three fundamentals to the Arche concept. 

Shapes…hundreds of hours are spent perfecting and studying shape.  Shapes are constantly updated in line with lifestyle and fashion trends and each shape is formed to maximize comfort even after hours of walking and wear.

Upper Materials …all from European tanneries, the beautiful nubuck calf and full grain calf leathers are traditionally tanned to preserve their authentic look and exceptional softness.

Soles…. made from comfortable hevea latex, derived from hevea milk, or natural rubber.  Hevea latex is harvested in tropical Asia following traditional ‘tapping’ techniques in rubber plantations.  Stored in liquid form, it is poured by hand into moulds for soles designed exclusively by Arche.
