Discover the treasures of North America's inspiring, charming and surprising shoe museum.

Located in Toronto, the Bata Shoe Museum (BSM) regularly displays over a thousand shoes and related artefacts, chosen from a collection of almost 14,000 objects, in architect Raymond Moriyama’s iconic, award-winning building. The BSM celebrates the style, development and function of footwear across four impressive galleries, with displays ranging from Chinese bound-foot shoes and ancient Egyptian sandals to chestnut-crushing clogs and glamorous platforms.
