Baesemans Shoes & Variety Clothing

Established in 1933, Baeseman's started as an army surplus store and quickly turned into one of Central Wisconsin's finest retailers of quality name brand clothing and shoes for the outdoorsman and worker alike. The Baeseman's small surplus store was located on Wausau's Clinton Street, along the river near 1st and Stewart Avenues.

Whether it's for home, work, or the outdoors, Baeseman's Shoes and Clothing has the knowledge and experience to help you step into the perfect footwear suited to your needs. Our footwear products are rugged, dependable, and some, still American-made - and we also specialize in wide widths and large sizes, stocking sizes up to 16.

From Baeseman's Shoes and Clothing's start as a small surplus store in the 30s, to a popular shoe store in the 60s, the new millennium has brought many improvements and additions to the Baeseman twins' dream. Every year we expand a little more and fill the shelves a little higher.

Here in Central Wisconsin, we have eight months of cold weather, so we have learned not to put too much stock in selling bathing suits, but rather into durable, warm and dry clothing and footwear.In fact, we regularly outfit groups of hunters heading up north for the big deer hunt as well as hunters heading out west for that trophy mount.
