The Story of Calla
Founded by Jennifer Bailey, Calla Shoes was born from a personal journey of seeking footwear that blends style and comfort for those with unique foot needs. As someone who has battled the challenges of bunions for most of her life, Jennifer intimately understands the frustration of finding fashionable shoes that don’t sacrifice comfort.
The vision for Calla took shape during Jennifer’s quest to find the perfect wedding shoes—a search that ended with her abandoning painful heels after just an hour. This pivotal moment, coupled with her own experience of redundancy while pregnant, inspired Jennifer to create a brand dedicated to providing women with foot conditions a luxurious alternative that doesn’t compromise on elegance.
After years of meticulous research, Calla was launched to the delight of women globally. Today, our shoes are cherished by customers in over 60 countries, each pair a testament to the fusion of sophisticated design and unparalleled comfort. Jennifer’s dedication to empowering women has not gone unnoticed—she was honored with the Inspiring Woman Award in 2018.
At Calla, we’re committed to transforming the lives of women by reimagining on-trend styles to fit comfortably and beautifully.
About the Shoes
Calla shoes are meticulously designed with a wide toe box and a standard heel, offering extra width where it’s needed most—across the bunions—while ensuring a secure fit at the heel. We source only the finest, softest luxury leather and suede from Europe, carefully chosen to minimize friction and accommodate the natural contours of your feet.
Jennifer personally oversees the crafting process, ensuring each shoe is thoughtfully designed to discreetly cover bunions, with higher vamps that tuck in any irregularities. Every Calla shoe features cushioned insoles with arch support, prioritizing comfort without compromising style.
Handcrafted in the Porto region of Portugal, each pair of Calla shoes is a blend of quality, elegance, and comfort, reflecting our commitment to excellence in every step.
