It's just fitting that Marikina City, being popularly known as the shoe capital of the Philippines , houses the
Shoe Museum.   Where else could you find an annual Sapatos Festival (Sept. 9), a fully motorized running
high heel, giant shoes in the middle of the river and home of the world's largest shoes (Marikina Riverbanks)
than in Marikina !
 
Located along JP. Rizal St. and just across the Our Lady of the Abandoned Church is the Shoe Museum.  
The museum holds shoes of several famous people including a pair of shoes from each president of the
Philippines in chronological order.   Other shoes note worthing are those of celebrities, ambassadors, political
figures and even traditional shoes from several countries.   On the 2nd floor, you'll read history about shoe
making including life-size mannequins depicting the art of shoemaking.  You'll also find some unusual shoe
sizes like one being 3 feet long.   
 
 
The main bulk of shoes on display was contribued by former first lady of the Philippines Imelda Marcos...
749 pairs to be exact.   You'll see all different kinds of shoes she owned for different occasions.  Shoes both
made in Marikina and made abroad with different brands, styles, shapes and colors are all on display.  
A huge portrait of Imelda is also hanging above serving as a mini-shrine for her shoe collection below.
 

Entrace to the Museum is P20. for Marikina residents and P40. for non-residents.   Unfortunately, picture and
video taking inside the museum is not allowed.  The museum is open from Mondays through Saturdays from 9
am till 5pm
 

 

The Shoe Museum was conceived in 1998 under then Mayor Bayani F. Fernando on the assumption that the

City, being the Shoe Capital of the Philippines, can be a significant venue for nurturing the historical and

cultural values of its shoe industry. It was opened in February 16, 2001 and was initially called the Footwear

Museum of Marikina.

 

You won’t be able to take pictures inside the museum… there will be a tour guide that will explain to you what

 you will see there such as these.

 

 

A collection of shoes… (what else). Mostly from former Philippine First Lady, Imelda Marcos.
