Buyer pain points & our technical solution
What B2B buyers struggle with
Boutique buyers work with limited shelf space and no room for dead stock. They report minimums sized for big chains — MOQ structures that force a small label to over-commit on one style instead of curating a range; heel comfort that was never specified, where insole padding and heel geometry are assumed rather than written into the program, and returns follow; and sample-to-bulk drift, where the ordered heel arrives stiffer, higher or in a different finish than the approved sample.
The commercial impact: a boutique's assortment is its brand. One bad heel season damages the label with its end customers far more than a price issue would.
How our boutique heel program solves it
Aurevia runs heel programs built for curated assortments: published core styles with MOQ 100 pairs per color so a capsule can open across several silhouettes; heel height, toe shape, insole padding and strap hardware written at sampling and confirmed on the approved sample; and bulk matched to the approved sample through material, construction and finished-shoe inspection.
The value for buyers: open with a small, well-chosen range, know exactly what the customer will feel in the fitting room, and re-order the same product — not an approximation of it.
Customer cases
European footwear importer — heel collections under private label
Who: a European footwear importer supplying retail chains under its own label. What we delivered: seasonal leather boot and heel collections developed with our design team, matched against approved samples across repeat orders. Problem solved: keeping a curated heel range consistent season after season without a full in-house design department. Before: the importer had to re-verify quality on every seasonal drop because supplier consistency was not guaranteed. Now: approved samples are matched across repeat orders, with stable quality and reliable lead times documented in the program.

Private label support for boutique brands
Who: boutique labels building their own branded heel lines. What we delivered: OEM/ODM programs covering logo placement, packaging, size grading and full seasonal collections, with production-ready documentation.

FAQ
What is the MOQ for boutique heel orders?
Published heel styles carry MOQ 100 pairs per color, so a boutique label can open with a curated capsule across two or three color stories. Confirm the exact figure per style when requesting samples.
Can we order multiple heel heights under one brand?
Yes. Low block, mid and high statement heels are all part of the OEM/ODM scope; heel height, toe shape and strap hardware are confirmed on the approved sample before bulk.
Can you apply our brand to packaging and insoles?
Yes. Logo placement, packaging and size grading are covered by the private label program, with production-ready documentation provided before production starts.
How do you keep boutique ranges consistent across seasons?
Bulk production is matched to the approved sample and inspected at material, construction and finished-shoe stages before shipment, so a re-order lands the same way the first order did.
