Steve Madden

Steve Madden turned a $1,100 investment in 1990 and a factory in Queens into a global brand sold in over 80 countries, built on bold design and a sharp instinct for what people actually want to wear. Rooted in New York music and street culture, the brand has grown beyond shoes into apparel, handbags, fragrances, and collaborations with names like Sydney Sweeney, Cardi B, and Kendall and Kylie Jenner, all without losing its rebellious spirit.
