About Us

About Us – Steve Madden

At Steve Madden, we believe in bold style, self-expression, and walking with confidence. That’s why we design trend-setting footwear, apparel, and accessories that keep up with your life—from street to runway, and everywhere in between. Whether you're out for the night, hitting the city, or making a statement at work, Steve Madden takes you there in style.


Our Story

Steve Madden started with a simple idea: to disrupt the fashion world with daring, iconic footwear. What began in a Queens factory in the early '90s has grown into a global lifestyle brand worn by creatives, trendsetters, and tastemakers around the world. Our collections reflect a unique mix of street inspiration, pop culture, and fearless individuality—crafted for those who don’t follow trends, they create them.

From chunky boots to sleek stilettos, Steve Madden is synonymous with bold moves and next-level design.


Fashion That Moves You

We create pieces for real lives and real moments—those spontaneous nights out, long city walks, and big career leaps. With every pair of heels, loafers, sneakers, or slides, our goal is the same: to deliver style that stands out and comfort that keeps up.

Steve Madden blends runway influence with real-world wearability, making fashion accessible, expressive, and always evolving.


More Than a Brand – It’s a Statement

Steve Madden isn’t just a brand—it’s a mindset. It’s for the ambitious, the unapologetic, the creative. We celebrate individuality and empower people to stand tall—literally and figuratively.

From your first pair of Maddens to the tenth, we’re here for every step of your style journey.
