Founded in 1990 from the trunk of his car with just $1,100, Steve Madden built his brand by translating New York's street culture and a rock-and-roll edge into accessible, trend-forward footwear. The brand’s initial success was cemented by the chunky platform shoe, a 1990s hallmark that defined its disruptive and daring design approach. Rooted in a potent mix of sex appeal and urban grit, the company creates styles for women and men who use fashion to express their individuality. The brand's core lies in its ability to quickly interpret runway trends and street style, making fashionable designs widely available.
