The Designer Shoe Brand To Know

Italians have always been at the forefront of luxury footwear, but there’s a new brand on the map that won’t set you back like other shoe designers.

Aeyde is the fashion girl favourite that puts quality and design first. That means stylish leather pieces with a directional flare – think a Western-inspired heel, or a snakeskin-print finish. Founded in 2015, the brand is based in Berlin, but each design is made in a family-run factory in the Marche region of Italy, finished with a hand-sewn stitch as a mark of quality. They may not be cheap (a pair of boots will set you back around £250) but compared to stratospheric designer shoe prices, they stand out as a more affordable option, especially when you consider their astute craftmanship and timeless-meets-cool appeal. Here are 21 of our favourites – find them on NET-A-PORTER and their own site.
