About Yellow

Yellow is a Quebec family shoe store chain founded in Montréal in 1916. With more than 90 locations across the province, it is one of the most familiar shoe names in Quebec.

It suits families looking for shoes for school, work and every season. Back-to-school time and the start of winter are busy moments for new shoes and boots, so it helps to shop a little early. Many Quebecers remember getting their shoes there as kids. Choosing Yellow supports a Quebec family business with more than a century of history, still rooted in the province where it began.
