Can buyers choose their shoe size when ordering?

Yes — set up shoe size and width as product variants, alongside leather colour or sole options, so each listing covers your full size range without separate products.

How is shipping handled for handmade shoes?

You set your own rates based on the real weight and dimensions of a boxed pair. Flat rate by zone, free shipping over a threshold, or your own carrier account — your choice entirely.

Do I need to be a registered cobbler or business to sell on Airehaus?

No specific registration beyond what Stripe needs to verify your identity and payouts. Any maker producing handmade leather shoes can set up a storefront.

What's the cost to sell handmade shoes on Airehaus?

A flat membership of around $29 a month, zero commission. On a $200+ pair of handmade shoes, that is a meaningful saving over a percentage-based marketplace.

Best platform to sell handmade leather shoes

If you make handmade leather shoes, the "best platform" question comes down to one thing: who ends up owning the business you build online. Airehaus gives cobblers and bespoke shoemakers their own Stripe, storefront and orders, plugged into a shared marketplace — not a rented listing page.

Most marketplaces treat every category the same way — one commission rate, one generic listing template, regardless of what you actually make. That rarely fits cobblers and bespoke shoemakerswell. Airehaus doesn’t charge commission at all, and the product catalogue is flexible enough to represent handmade leather shoes properly rather than forcing it into a one-size-fits-all listing.

Why handmade leather shoes needs more than a generic listing

Buyers choosing handmade leather shoes aren’t comparing on price alone — buyers comparing handmade leather shoes care about fit, materials and construction, and want a direct line to the maker if sizing questions come up. A storefront with your name, your story and your full catalogue does more to earn that trust than a listing buried among thousands of unrelated products on a mass marketplace.

Built around how you actually sell

Variants that fit the craft. Set up shoe size and width as variants, plus leather colour and sole finish options — all on one product, not a separate listing for every option.
Your own Stripe. Checkout is a direct charge on your own connected Stripe account. You keep 100% of the item price and the shipping.
Shipping on your terms. For handmade leather shoes, that usually means a boxed parcel with real weight to it, so accurate dimensions and weight on each listing matter for a fair shipping quote. Airehaus holds no carrier keys and organises no parcels — the rate and courier are entirely your call.
Your own storefront and dashboard. A shop page that carries your name, plus orders, fulfilment and tracking in one place.

Zero commission, one flat membership

Airehaus charges a single flat membership of around $29 a month and takes zero commission. Whether you sell one piece or twenty in a month, the platform’s cost to you stays exactly the same — unlike a percentage-based marketplace, where your best month is also its best month. Full breakdown in zero commission vs marketplace fees.

What you need to start

Two things: an active membership and a connected Stripe account. From there, build your storefront, set up your catalogue with the variants that make sense for handmade leather shoes, set your shipping, and start taking orders. Full walkthrough in the checklist to start selling handmade online.

The bottom line

Cobblers and bespoke shoemakers don’t need a generic listing page that takes a cut of every sale. Airehaus gives you a complete, independent business — your own Stripe, storefront, catalogue and shipping — built to represent handmade leather shoes properly, plugged into a marketplace that brings buyers to you.
