Welcome to Maison Adam

Shoe shop for men & women in Brussels

Maison Adam (a merger between Mr Adam and Shapes) is a shoe store for women and men, located on Avenue Louise in Brussels. Our enthusiastic sales team is at your disposal to advise you and answer your questions. A maintenance and "small repairs" service is also available in store.

We sell timeless models, such as oxfords, brogues, derbies, loafers, boots, Chelsea boots, sneakers, espadrilles, monk strap shoes, sandals, ballerinas, heels, and wedding shoes. We also cater to Brussels' vibrant Sapologie community with shoes built for dandy elegance. We work directly with manufacturers located in Spain, France, Italy and Portugal, without intermediaries, using traditional construction methods like Goodyear welt and Blake stitching (read more about our artisanal craftsmanship), which enables us to offer high quality models at competitive prices. We also sell shoe care products and accessories such as belts, ties, bow ties and suspenders.

Maison Adam also sells wholesale for customers located on other continents. If you have a business and are interested in retailing Maison Adam shoes, do not hesitate to contact us.

Maison Adam is a family owned and independently-run store. Steven, the manager, is the fourth generation in his family to be active in the shoe business. He is also a self-taught designer and most of the shoes sold in the store are his designs.
