Traditional glove shop in the heart of Antwerp

Traditional glove shop in the heart of Antwerp

Ganterie Boon is the only remaining glove shop in Antwerp. We are even one of the few glove shops in Belgium. Our shop was established in 1884 by two Italians. Since Arthur Boon took over the shop in 1920, Ganterie Boon has become a family business. In the meantime we are three generations down the line. For almost 120 years we have been selling exclusively craft gloves. We also kept the art deco character of our shop intact. The original glove boxes, countertops, cabinets and chairs from the previous century turn our shop into an experience.


Small glove workshops


The manufactury of all our gloves is handiwork. We work together with small workshops, primarily in Italy, France and Hungary. We regularly travel there to choose the skins and models of the gloves. Quality over quantity. Not a single glove is the same. The cutting of the leather is real artists work. We ensure that the leather is perfectly tanned and smooth. The glove needs to fit like a glove.
