When our parents Jenny and Paul Dhont first set foot in the shop in Oudburg in 1966, Schoenen Boonants had already been a well-known name in Ghent for two decades. So they continued to nurture it.

The shop itself underwent several major renovations to improve service and the shopping experience for customers. The available floor space was quadrupled, greatly increasing the range and choices for women and men.

Specialising in dance shoes

Our parents loved dancing. They turned their hobby into something of a profession by specialising in dance shoes since the 1980s. Salsa and tango dancers, among others, who only want to glide across the dance floor on quality shoes, are still in the right place today.

Because now that the next generation is at the helm, the story of Boonants Schoenen continues.
 

Quality in
style & comfort
We still carefully select our collections on style, fit and quality of materials. Thanks to our extensive range of models with removable footbeds, we can always help customers with orthotics to find a stylish shoe. Incidentally, we no longer do this only in Oudburg, but since 1989 also at Nederkouter 143. Our second shop was also completely renovated in 2012.
