La Pelle

I went to La Pelle to buy new shoes to get me through the rainy autumn months in Florence. Because of the numerous leather shops Florence counts, it is often hard to know where you can get the good quality products. Going to La Pelle, gives you this guarantee. I could not be happier with the boots I got: they are comfortable, original and you can clearly notice their high quality. On top of these high quality products, Aldo and Sonia are very genuine shop owners: they do their very best to find what you as a specific customer are looking for. I have a visitor here in Florence soon and I am definitely taking him there. Highly recommended!

As someone who suffers from a severe deficit in judgement when it comes to choosing clothes, Sonia was an absolute delight and a genius when it comes to picking out what looks good on someone. She was even game to let me try on a few of the women's jackets before it became obvious that I can't pull off something that fitted. Can't recommend highly enough - fantastic local shop with the loveliest and most helpful owners.

Purchased two leather jackets from Aldo and Lucia! They were lovely to work with! They helped us pick out our sizes, styles, and colors. The leather is beautiful, and their designs are great! If you’re thinking about purchasing a leather jacket in Italy, definitely get a high quality jacket from a local artisan like La Pelle.
