Why Choose Ara?

At SomethingForMe & Hamishmunro, we carefully select ARA footwear for customers seeking both comfort and contemporary style. ARA is particularly well known for its supportive comfort technology, generous fitting designs and excellent everyday wearability. In our experience, many customers with slightly wider feet find ARA an especially comfortable fit thanks to the brand’s accommodating shapes and multiple width options.

Many ARA styles also feature bamboo linings, which have become increasingly popular with customers due to their exceptionally soft, breathable and moisture-absorbing qualities, helping keep feet cool and comfortable throughout the day. In our experience, ARA footwear is often particularly well suited to customers seeking a softer, more accommodating fit profile without sacrificing style.

Waterproof Range

ARA produces a comprehensive range of women’s footwear, but one of the brand’s standout specialities is waterproof footwear. Utilising Gore-Tex technology, ARA waterproof boots, trainers and shoes provide reliable weather protection while maintaining the comfort and lightweight feel the brand is known for. These styles have remained customer favourites in-store and online for many years, particularly for everyday walking, travel and wet weather wear throughout the UK.

Having sold thousands of ARA Gore-Tex boots over the years, we have absolute confidence in their ability to keep feet dry and comfortable when worn appropriately. ARA waterproof footwear has been especially popular with customers looking for practical everyday footwear suited to the British climate. Selling from our Aberdeen, Scotland store for over 20 years has given us particular expertise in this area, as we typically experience some of the wettest and coldest weather conditions in the UK.

Ara FAQ's

  • Are Ara shoes true to size?

    Ara shoes are generally true to size, though many styles fit slightly roomy or wider. Most people can order their usual size, but narrow feet may prefer sizing down.

  • Are Ara shoes good for walking?

    Ara shoes are well known for comfort and are generally good for walking. Many styles have cushioned insoles, flexible soles, arch support, and wider fits that make them comfortable for all-day wear and travel. Sneakers and loafers tend to be especially popular for walking.

  • Are Ara shoes suitable for wider feet?

    Ara shoes are often recommended for people with wider feet. Many styles feature roomy toe boxes, soft leather, cushioned insoles, and wider width options that provide extra comfort without feeling tight or restrictive. Their flexible designs and supportive fit make them a popular choice for all-day wear, walking, and travel.

  • What is Gore-Tex footwear?

    Gore‑Tex footwear is made with a special waterproof and breathable membrane that helps keep your feet dry while still allowing heat and moisture to escape. It’s commonly used in walking shoes, hiking boots, and trainers to provide protection from rain and wet conditions without sacrificing comfort.

    This type of footwear is especially popular for:

    • Walking and hiking in rain or muddy conditions
    • Everyday use during autumn and winter
    • Outdoor travel and long-distance walking
    • Activities where dry, comfortable feet are important
