Houben

Heavy on Japanese and progressive labels, Houben attracts an insider crowd. An insider crowd with money to burn, that is, because hot Japanese imports don not come cheap!

Not that the pieces aren't worth the expenditure; no, to own a piece of Commes des Garcons is to own a piece of wearable art. However, we cannot all afford to be art collectors - so fortunate are we that Houben also has a sales outlet.

The Marie Theresialei location holds the current collections, while the Steenhouwersvest store is an outlet for out-of-season discounted merchandise.

Because everyone deserves a pair of Alaia strappy sandals.
