I first discovered this brand when we visited the Gallarie Lafayette in Paris a few years ago and…read morebeen a fan since. They only have a handful of shops in Europe and some in Asia. I suspect they have a few big retailers that carry it but have not seen it in Germany or Ireland. If you are after comfort and style you can't go wrong. Your wallet might be a whole lot lighter but hey good things don't come cheap. Besides when in Italy do what the Italians do eh....buy shoes and accessories ;-)) They have a full line of male and female shoes. For women if you like heels but not a fan of stiletto or thin pointy heels this is a great brand for shoe that are ultra comfortable with decent heels. My wife loves their stuff and also likes the fact that she can buy heels that are nice to walk in. For men there is a great selection of casual and dress shoes, belts, bags and so on. I do like their designs and seems a little bit more elegant and classy a look. As I discovered during our walks around Venice there is at least 3-4 shops from this brand spread out around town and it is much cheaper than buying top end stuff like Gucci and Prada and so on and actually of great quality.

I found this place thanks to my Lonely Planet guide book which said that the leather goods here…read morewere not to be missed and that this is one of the few places in Venice that makes truly quality leather goods. (Everyone in Italy told me that if you are doing serious leather goods shopping, the place to go is Firenze.) I came in and had a look at the shoes and bags and my god, they really are amazing. The craftsmanship is there and at reasonable prices. I mean if you are going to have shoes made from scratch specifically for you from a professional cobbler, they usually start at $1000 (approx. 700 Euros). The boots I saw here were in the 300-400 Euro bracket. If I had not already bought my ankle boots earlier in my trip, I would have bought them here instead. Also, Mr. Balducci was quite pleasant to deal with when he answered my questions. Most Venetian merchants are pretty grouchy since their city has become a tourist Disneyland, and I don't blame them one bit.

On a rainy day in Venice we stumbled into this gorgeous shoe shop. The handcrafted shoes in the…read morewindow drew us in and we were unprepared for what was inside -- incredibly beautiful Italian leather shoes in some of the most original colors and styles I've ever seen. My husband bought a pair of stunning handcrafted leather dress shoes for about $150 U.S. These shoes are so awesome and look like nothing you can buy in the states. The best part was we bought the shoes directly from the cobbler who made them! He was hard at work in the shop when we came in. There are also a lot of beautiful women's shoes but most are leather boots. If you are into that sort of footwear, check it out. The shoes are all very unique looking and they just felt "special." The owner was super friendly and kind and was very helpful (even with us speaking broken Italian and him speaking broken English). A great shop with quality leather footwear. I'm a fan!

We threw away two shoes and one pair of sandals on our trip to Italy. Why? For various reasons, but they were definitely not new. They were breaking apart because we've had them for years. BUT, this store, I think, is for someone who is looking to spend a little more for better quality. It's not for someone who is looking to grab a quick pair of sandals. The two women were very friendly, attentive, and helpful. They gave excellent suggestions and were knowledgeable about the brands they had and what we were looking for in shoes. According to the ladies, they carry a wide variety of European brands that are known for their quality and comfort, brands such as Pikolinos, Birkenstocks, Lilimill...

A little pricier than most of the stores for kids you see around there but the quality is amazing and the clothes are unique.

They have some amazing dresses and great jackets, the staff was very helpful and did not seem to mind her trying on different pairs until we found the perfect ones.

I was worried that location wouldn't have what I wanted but took a chance and later found it in a very special color that this location did not have and was told I would not find in the states.
