Along with the UAE, the app can be accessed in Saudi Arabia, Oman, Bahrain and Kuwait. As the GCC witnessed 10x rise in online shopping over the past 18 months, the app comes at the right time with the right engagement with customers who are ever more digitally connected  enthusiastic about services, human connections and personalisation.

With a rising number of customers shopping online in Saudi Arabia, Level Shoes was keen to make their experience seamless too by opening its doors in the Kingdom. In October 2021, Level Shoes opened within ‘A Concept by MUSE’, a highly anticipated next gen retail destination in Riyadh Park.

A curator of unparalleled experiences

Spread across a sprawling 97,000 square feet when Level Shoes opened at the heart of The Dubai Mall in 2012 it almost instantly set a record as the globally largest luxury footwear destination and synonymous with self-indulgence.

Chalhoub Group strongly believes that every homegrown brand, irrespective of their size or nature, is a glowing representation of the home country. In that sense, the avant-garde and diverse nature of Level Shoes – through its people, creators, and brands – is a tribute to Dubai, the UAE’s diversity and innovation, and regional talents and trendy customers.
