At Sole Provisions, the Wirth collection includes pumps, loafers, oxfords, and All Day styles in leather, patent leather, suede, and nubuck, and it sits naturally beside our wider women's oxfords, women's footwear, and women's slip ons selections.
Brazilian Leather Craft in the Vale do Rio dos Sinos
Wirth is rooted in the Vale do Rio dos Sinos, a region known across Brazil as a footwear hub. More than seven decades of leather footwear experience goes hand in hand with the company's stated focus on production quality, technology, and skilled personnel. If you appreciate leather craft from other regions, you may also enjoy Pikolinos for Spanish leather and Ara for German crafted styles.
Where the Name Wirth Comes From

Wirth is a German surname. It comes from the Middle High German word wirt, meaning host or innkeeper, and it is most common in German speaking regions such as Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. It is a long established family name, so it appears in many fields and places beyond footwear.
The Wirth footwear brand itself is Brazilian, with its headquarters in Dois Irmãos and its roots in the Vale do Rio dos Sinos. So while the name is German in origin, the shoes in this collection come from a Brazilian leather footwear tradition.
Materials With Variety
Wirth works with leather, patent leather, suede, nubuck, and metallic hardware, including a leopard patterned nubuck. That range lets you choose between classic neutrals and statement finishes, whether you want a glossy patent pump for an evening out or a soft suede look for everyday wear. Care for each finish with our shoe care products so leather, suede, and nubuck keep their appearance.
Pumps and Dressier Styles
Styles such as the Penelope MJ and Brera Bit Pump bring a polished look to the office, events, and dinners out. They show how Wirth balances a dressier silhouette with cushioned insoles and durable outsoles, so a smart outfit does not have to mean an uncomfortable day. Browse more dressier options in our women's footwear collection.
Loafers, Oxfords, and Everyday Styles
The Contigo Bit Loafer, Magno Oxford, Carrera, Julie 3, and Gambi cover more everyday ground, from work wardrobes to weekend outfits. Loafers and oxfords are easy to wear with trousers, skirts, and dresses, so one pair can work across many looks. Compare them with our women's oxfords and women's slip ons.
Comfort Features by Style
Current styles are described with cushioned insoles and durable outsoles. Exact construction varies between models, so check the individual product details before ordering. If you want extra support, explore our arch support shoes and shoe inserts. Some All Day, Gambi, and Carrera styles sell out, so check availability and color options.
Getting the Right Fit
Width and sizing details vary by style, so check each product page for the options on your pair. If you need more room, browse our wide width shoes. For a personal fitting, visit one of our Sole Provisions locations, or read more in our educational hub. Add women's socks for an extra layer of comfort.
