The Bangkok Shoe Forum 2020

On the 31st- 1st Nov 2020 The Gaysorn Mall Welcomed in The augural Bangkok Shoe Forum. 

For this first year it was not possible to have  international visitors due to Covid restrictions but we had enough brands to make a statement to give as a taste of bigger and bolder event due to come in 2021

So, Sit back and enjoy this roundup, as we review of the Shoe Forum with images taken in the first few hours of the event, 

I wish to thank all of you that stopped by even just to say hello, We very much enjoyed your company and please don't hesitate to come along next yar as I'm sure it will be an even bigger success next year

For those that we're unable to attend here is a virtual tour via Facebook live it was a fantastic location for the first, It's great to refect back to savour  the moment again of a world-class event
