John Fluevog is an independent designer and retailer of forward-thinking footwear and accessories. Since 1970, John has been steadfast in creating ‘unique soles for unique souls’ that have been seen everywhere from the feet of artists like Madonna, Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, and Jack White, to the runways of high fashion. Some of his earliest customers include The Beach Boys, Alice Cooper, filmmaker Robert Altman, and a slew of slightly less famous (but no less amazing) Fluevogers.

Traditionally made in old-world factories, Fluevog shoes are produced in small runs, are fully repairable, and—with their quality and timeless luxury—always stand out in a crowd. When you wear a pair of Fluevogs, you’re stepping into decades of traditionally crafted untraditional designs.

As you soak up the steady flow of comfort, confidence, and compliments, you’ll quickly begin to wonder what you ever did without Fluevogs on your feet. Whether it sticks in your mind as Foofarg or Vlueflag, Fluevog is a name usually mispronounced, but seldom forgotten.

Our Fluevogologists are the heart and soul of our stores, and now, we’re thrilled to bring that heart to Halifax! With its rich history, vibrant arts scene, and welcoming community, Halifax is the perfect fit for Fluevog’s creativity and individuality.
