The Hoyt Shoe Factory is a historic factory complex at 477 Silver Street and 170 Lincoln Street in Manchester, New Hampshire. It consists of two once-identical four-story brick factory buildings which face each other across Silver Street. One was built in 1892, the other in 1895, and both have had additions made to them in the early 20th century. They were designed by industrial architect Augustus G. Stevens for Francis M. Hoyt, and, along with other nearby buildings, were the city's largest shoe manufactory. Located outside the city's main mill district, which was operated by the Amoskeag Manufacturing Company, shoe production gained in economic importance as the textile industry declined, and the Hoyt Company operated here until 1971, although much of the space was taken over by other manufacturing concerns after the 1930s.

The complex was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
