A fetish icon since 1983

The Boots is the most famous fetish bar in Belgium and one of the oldest and most legendary fetish venues in Europe. Since opening its doors on 4 July 1983, it has grown from a single floor into six levels of bars, cruising zones and extensive play areas, making it a must-see for every fetish lover visiting Antwerp.

Originally started as a leather bar, The Boots has evolved with the times and now embraces the full spectrum of fetishes. Rubber, underwear, diapers, sneakers, sportswear or simply nothing at all, you’ll find your space here with dedicated zones for pups as well. Special events like the Horse Fair and Slave Market add to the vibrant program that keeps the scene alive.

For more than 40 years The Boots has successfully brought the spirit of the old days into the modern era, offering a safe and welcoming space where people can cruise, drink, play and live their fetish to the fullest.
