The men's coxed pair event was part of the rowing programme at the 1928 Summer Olympics.

The Belgian bronze medal team consisted of Léon Flament, François de Coninck, and Georges Anthony; it was the nation's first medal in the event.

Belgium and France each made their fourth appearance, the two nations to have competed in all three prior editions.

The coxed pair event featured three-person boats, with two rowers and a coxswain.
