About The Hand
The Hand is an industry-leading boutique for luxury men's shoes. We feature iconic shoes of superior quality, handmade by the world's most distinguished craftspeople. Timeless pieces that get even more beautiful as they are worn in, and will last you a lifetime. The Hand's team is always available for personal fitting advice, either online, at our Boutique in Amsterdam, at private appointments or at lively, inspiring events.
The Hand sells bespoke, made-to-order and ready-to-wear shoes from iconic shoemakers, each representing a distinct heritage and philosophy within the world of luxury shoemaking: Edward Green (UK), Gaziano & Girling (UK), Stefano Bemer (IT), Maison Corthay (FR), Saint Crispin's (Austria), Norman Vilalta (Spain), and Baudoin & Lange (EU). To complement these lines, The Hand features exclusive handmade leather accessories and care products.
Founder Dennis van de Water is always keen to hear about your individual requirements and to advise you personally for your bespoke and made-to-order shoes. He also curated a ready-to-wear collection which you can explore now in The Hand's shop.
The Hand is a family owned business based in Amsterdam. Our Boutique is located at The Van Baerle Shopping Gallery inside the Conservatorium Hotel, Van Baerlestraat 27. It's in Amsterdam's famous Museum Quarter, right next-door to the Van Gogh Museum, and a few steps from the Rijksmuseum and the Vondelpark.
We offer worldwide free shipping to serve our customers around the globe. We are available for private fittings and events in and beyond Europe upon request.
The Hand celebrates contemporary leather classics, the people who craft them, and the people who wear them.
