This Museum is dedicated to footwear. An item that was born out of necessity and now has become an item to be desired and cherished by some.
The location is right on Bloor and is walking distance from a subway station which I recommend taking, as parking is hard and expensive around here.
The outside of the museum doesn't tell much whats in store. Now I am not saying it should be a cliche' and shaped liked a giant sneaker but at least make and effort to be different.
When I walked in there wasn't much of line but it took forever to move as the staff was very slow in dealing with people. My interaction didn't improve upon the first impression as I found them to be brash.
The Museum is on the smaller size with about 2 and half floors of display space.
Even with effort one can't spend more than an hour or so here if you ask me.
The exhibits provided and insight into how the footwear has changed or remained the same in some cultures over the history of mankind. Worth a look if you are a history buff.
They also had shoes worn by famous people , it would help if they gave out the shoe sizes of various famous personalities as on its own it doesn't mean much (who wouldn't want to know the size of Shaq's Shoes!)
Top floor was currently showing the masterpieces by a famous shoe designer.
Would I recommend coming here. No actually as I would just look up this stuff on the internet and save myself some $$ and do better things with my time and maybe go out and buy a pair of shoes myself.
