Greve is a prestigious Dutch footwear brand with a history dating back to 1898. Founded by Hermanus Greve in Waalwijk, North Brabant—a region historically famous for its tanning and shoemaking industry—the brand became known for its meticulously handcrafted dress shoes and Goodyear welted construction.

While the brand maintains its headquarters and design philosophy in the Netherlands, much of its modern manufacturing has shifted toward high-quality artisans in Portugal to combine traditional craftsmanship with contemporary production scales. Greve remains an independent family-oriented brand, emphasizing heritage and premium materials, and continues to be recognized as one of the top luxury shoemakers originating from the Netherlands.
