Shoe Sensation in Bardstown, KY

Shoe Sensation Bardstown, KY

There are a lot of reasons to love Bardstown, Kentucky: it's The Bourbon Capital of the World, the state's second-oldest town (established in 1780), and home of our local Shoe Sensation, located at 227 Kentucky Home Square.

Whether you're looking for boots, sandals, dress or athletic shoes, our staff excels in small-town hospitality and will be happy to help you from the moment you step through the door. We have a wide selection the entire family can pick from, including go-to brands like Fila, Under Armour, Adidas, and HEYDUDE.
When you find that perfect pair of shoes, show ?em off at the Springhill Winery, the Oscar Getz Museum of Whiskey History, or one of our many, many distilleries. You can also tour My Old Kentucky Home State Park, inspiration for the song "My Old Kentucky Home" by Stephen Foster, the father of American music.

For those who are a little more outdoorsy, lace up your new kicks and head out for a hike at the Bernheim Arboretum and Research Forest, a quick 20-minute drive outside of town. If the timing's right, check out the Kentucky Bourbon Festival, hosted right here in Bardstown.

Our staff is passionate about our little community, and we've partnered with numerous charities and local events including Community Action of Nelson County, The Salvation Army Angel Tree, Nelson County Family Resource and Youth Service Centers, the Girl Scouts of Kentuckiana, and The Sons of the American Legion for our Socks for Troops Drive. When you shop at Shoe Sensation, you're helping Bardstown thrive.
