Chicago Shoe Market

Chicago Shoe Market Starting in 2011, the WCST's goal is to provide a first class regional market experience for both re WCST hosts two tradeshow markets in the Chicago area.

The Windy City Shoe Travelers was started in the fall of 2011 by a group of footwear industry sales professionals who were looking to provide a first class regional market experience for both reps and retailers alike. What began as a small group of reps showcasing 75 premier footwear brands has grown into a market of well over 300 brands where retailers can find the footwear, accessories & apparel

that their customers are seeking. The February and August tradeshows are open booth events providing a great opportunity for retailers to check out the latest brands in an efficient exhibit experience. In less than one year, the Windy City Shoe Travelers has been able to provide three well-attended markets showcasing the best footwear brands – shows that industry professionals can be extremely proud of. We invite you to join us to be a part of the Windy City Shoe Travelers!
