Shoe Market
Shoe Boutique: mens, Womens, Childrens
Shoes are identity, utility, necessity. Shoes are democratic, personal, fashionable, intimate, iconic; you bike, work, walk, drink, dance, sing, create and love in them. Listed among life’s regrets, one never finds: “Bought bitchin’ pair of shoes I love”—but sometimes one finds its opposite. Shoes should not be underestimated.
Dana Schwister and Erika Vala are the fashion-dynamic ladies behind Williamsburg’s Mini Mini Market, and the most established retailers on Bedford Avenue’s shopping heaven. In 1999, armed only with their creative spirits, credit cards, a vision and a cash register from Staples, they opened Mini Mini Market when the only other activities in Williamsburg were to eat a stale bagel at the L Café and get your bike stolen. We’ve seen a lot of other retailers come and go, but we keep pushing forward and are proud to be a neighborhood essential and trend-scouting haunt for name designers. At Mini Mini Market, they sold shoes–but a shelf just wasn’t enough. and so In 2007, the ladies braved the entrepreneurial frontier again and opened their second store: Shoe Market.
Shoe Market loves to work with established designers and brands, the shoes that infiltrate our psyches, the classics we know like our own skin, like a beloved friend, a good lover, mother, wife or brother, the shoes we wish for, lust and have lusted for, new designers that surprise, remind and move us forward, as well as collaborate to develop Shoe Market's own, unique shoe brands. Dana Schwister and Erika Vala curate to their tastes and strive to create a store that most people can walk into, find something vibrant and beautiful—but that they can also afford
