Having evolved in the world of fashion for over 10 years before the adventure B & B, Marie-Hélène does not yet destined to medium initially. She initially studied art, which was conducted in textile printing, leading to another, to the world of fashion.
When Marie-Hélène and Sylvain Beaulac Robert opened Bottes et Baskets in June 2010, the duo wanted to offer the neighbourhood an interesting alternative for adults looking for stylish footwear.
Caught between boutiques that are too trend-conscious or sadly outdated, the two founders, who have also shared their lives for 10 years, felt their needs were not being reflected in the market. Marie-Hélène and Sylvain had a clear vision: To provide footwear and accessories of iconic brands and timeless style to customers who appreciate quality.
With Marie-Hélène's background in fashion design and Sylvain's experience in the retail shoe industry, the couple formed a complementary team perfectly positioned to launch their idea of a quality shoe store. After re-mortgaging their house to invest in the first season's collections and develop the retail space, they focused on attracting a loyal customer base and creating a memorable identity for Bottes et Baskets.
Comme le disent dautres revues le service après-vente est pourri. La facture dit 10 jours en crédits magasin si les chaussures nont été portées quà lintérieur. Ce que jai fait, mais le retour ma été refusé parce que, je cite : il y a un pli dans le cuir. Désolé mais comment peut-on essayer des chaussures chez soi si on ne peut pas marcher avec??? Considérez tout achat dans ce magasin comme VENTE FINALE. Le pire service après-vente jamais vu. Jamais plus je ne ferai dachat chez B&B.
