History

Each had their areas of expertise; John Auersperg, Sr. specialized in footwear sales and developed his fashion forward vision for private label product, John Jr. expanded the business into handbags, while Paul cultivated major catalogue accounts. Together, they moved the company into a unique niche within the fashion industry.

Since its inception, Fortune Footwear has operated on one three-pillar philosophy:
  1. Fashion styling and diversity – Produce successful and lasting products at all price points
  2. Quality – Achieve the highest standards
  3. Customer Satisfaction – Devotion to building long-lasting partnerships for mutual success

There is one significant change from those early days, however. The Fortune Footwear showroom has moved from its SoHo beginnings to the Tribeca neighborhood of New York City. We invite you to visit our showroom and see our women’s footwear and handbags for yourself. Contact us to learn more.
