We weren't in the shop more than 20 seconds when Super Mario came downstairs and greeted us. Started a conversation and immediately we felt like we'd known him forever. He is the designer for Jimmy's so we really lucked out having him show us around. He asked us a few questions about what we were looking for and pulled out several jackets for each of us. He was spot on with the styles and materials Needless to say we each walked out with a new leather jacket at an amazing price. Highly recommend! read more

Jimmy's Leather Collection was a fantastic find by my wife and I. Just so happened to be strolling along the San Lorenzo Piazza, looking for quality leather jackets, when we stumbled on this establishment. Johnny (Jimmy's cousin) is the man! He is an awesome dude, he knows his stuff and he was a great deal of help to wife in finding the right fit and style for her. He genuinely wanted to guide her to a selection she loved, not just liked, and he never once pressured us into a sale. We spent maybe 20-25 minutes and having my wife try on jackets, and ultimately she came away happy with a handsome black-colored jacket. The jacket itself is quality leather ("baby lamb" as Johnny said) and is a traditional black with two solid green lines traveling down each arm. It is very soft. Zippers, pockets and lining are intact and functional. On top of everything I mentioned, the jackets were ticketed a certain price (~1200 euros) but we were given - and ultimately paid - 65 or 70% off of that. I thought it ended up being fair for the value of the product. It's all the real deal. If you're in the San Lorenzo area and are interested in finding a high-quality jacket with a store that has PLENTY of styles and sizes to choose from, I HIGHLY recommend you stop at Jimmy's. read more

Husband and I had been hoping to find genuine leather jackets for ourselves while in Florence and SO so so luckily came across Jimmy's Leather shop and could not be happier with our purchases. Jimmy and his associate Rasool were so helpful and welcoming upon entering the shop and were more than happy to help us decide between the different shades and materials of leather. I cannot stand shopping in store but they made the experience so wonderful and I somehow*** found my dream jacket thanks to these two gentleman! They have unbelievably amazing quality jackets in store made of material such as lamb and buffalo skin. Also, if you see something you like, make sure you ask Jimmy because they may have other colors of your preference in stock as well. I cannot stress enough how helpful they were and were NOT pushy. Genuinely nice people and again am so thrilled with both jackets my husband and I purchased from this store. Just stop on by and do yourself a favor and actually feel the jackets for yourselves; you'll 100% feel the difference in weight/feel and you truly cannot beat these prices - again for THIS type of handmade quality. Can't wait to be back in the future with friends/family and thank you so much again Jimmy and Rasool!!:) read more

Before I left to visit Italy, I knew I wanted a leather jacket. We went to many stores in Florence but once we arrived at Jimmy's there was no need to go elsewhere. Great customer service, great quality. Since returning home, I ordered a backpack and a wallet by mail. He sent pictures so I could find what I wanted, and the transaction was simple. I recommend you go straight to Jimmy's for a great product and experience! read more

Heard about Jimmy's on Tripadvisor previously and happened to get pulled in from the street by a different vendor. I'm glad that happened. Johnny gave us the best experience as we were looking to get my fiance her first leather jacket. Johnny was super consultative, funny, and has a sense of style. He even shortened the sleeves for free. As a sales guy, I didn't feel pressured during the process. I was so tempted to get myself a third but will save that for my next trip to Florence. The leather market all sell the same "Verra Pelle" labeled jackets that felt thin and cheap. Jimmy's was definitely of higher quality and they have many different styles. I HIGHLY recommend this shop for leather jackets! Thank you again for a wonderful experience. read more

From Chicago and this was my first trip to Florence and I was convinced I didn't need another leather coat. Then I stumbled into Jimmy's and saw a gorgeous tan leather coat. Mario (the man!!) at Jimmy's closed the deal by making me feel comfortable with the quality and price. It was one of the highlights of my trip. First class quality and service and fair on the price. I'll be back to Florence and Jimmys! read more

Went into Jimmys with my husband for our honeymoon. Mario was so patient and a great listener. He also made you try stuff you wouldn't normally consider, but then we're amazing contenders. We ended up with 2 wallets, a jacket and a belt. Amazing experience and great customer service. Love, The Los Angeles couple read more

Just left Jimmy's with a beautiful mid length leather coat. The service was fantastic, Roger and team were very patient as I tried on so many jackets and coats, until I found the one I could not leave without. Fair prices for guaranteed 100% genuine Italian leather. Appreciated the no hard sell chill atmosphere and the espresso :)! read more

Jimmy's is the best. We went to all the fancy leather places in Florence like Michelangelo etc., and honestly Jimmy's is better. The designs were better (in my opinion) and the leather is just as good if not better. The grain on the jackets we got is just beautiful. Prices are higher than the cheap stalls near the square but that should be expected for leather of this quality. The price I paid was comparable to the "clearance" rack at Michelangelo and I got a much better jacket from Jimmy's. Great fit and made from a really cool full grain buffalo leather. Save yourself some time and just go straight to Jimmy's! read more

I so recommend this business ! The leather coats were amazing!!!! We could have bought many than we did !! Please don't hesitate ! The staff is wonderful and sooo accommodating! Don't miss this hidden treasure Susan and Michael read more

This is a fantastic shop. Mario took us in the back of the store and treated us like we were family. He asked us a couple questions then brought out a couple jackets for us to try. He listens very well to what you want specifically, finds the right style, cut,, color and comfort just for you. I love my jacket and am very thankful that I purchased my jacket. There are so many too choose from I thought it was overwhelming, but it was a great relaxing shopping experience. My jacket has vented holes to keep me cool. I love the softnesss and the style. Best of all I think it is a perfect cut for my body. Thank you so much for you hospitality. read more

Stumbled upon this store since we were staying in an apartment nearby. We were welcomed by the designer who was amazing in providing recommendations. Ended up purchasing my first leather jacket here! Can't wait to wear it in the fall. read more

I went to Italy with my parents for the first time this march and I have to say stopping here was a great choice. When we went in we had no intention of buying as much as we did but our salesman Johnny did an amazing job. He brought us different jackets until we found ones that we liked and he made us all laugh with all his jokes. I even promised I would write him this review as a thank you. Stopping at Jimmys Leather was definitely worth it. Thanks Johnny! - Liz read more

Wandered into Jimmy's with my 2 sisters and 3 friends during a recent trip to Florence and walked out smiling an hour later with 4 beautiful leather coats and several wallets. What a fun experience!! Johnny was so warm and welcoming and made us feel like queens. He had an uncanny ability to look at each one of us and find the perfect coat to match our personalities. Not sure how he managed to do it, but he did! He actually has quite a gift...not at all pushy, but a great salesman. He made us feel like we'd known him our whole lives. Give that man a raise, Jimmy! Each time that I've worn my jacket, someone has stopped me to tell me how beautiful it Is. Thanks to Johnny and Jimmy for a great shopping experience. Can't wait to go back to Florence and visit my new friends. read more

Jimmy's Leather Collection - Love it! Thanks, Jimmy, for the beautiful design. - Leather Goods Near Me - Florence, FI

Jimmy's Leather was so unique! Mario helped me out during my visit and he basically knew what I wanted with me just saying a few words. I got both myself and my bf a jacket and we both love them! A little on the expensive side, but since they're unique pieces it's totally worth it. read more

5 Stars go out to Jimmy and Johnny (or as we called them, "Jimmy John")! Top service and top quality leather pieces! I walked in to Jimmy's on the way to a tour of the Duomo, not expecting to walk out with anything... However, Johnny worked with my fiancé and I, and hand-picked pieces that really worked with our style and fit. He really took his time to make sure we were comfortable and were in love with their selections. Totally went above and beyond my expectations- these guys were super down to earth and really made the shopping experience a fun one to remember! You can tell that their styles were unique and different from ones in the market, and they have tonnnns of inventory, and when I say this, every inch of the walls are covered in all variants of color/size... Superb customer service and unbeatable prices for this quality leather! I highly recommend this as your one stop shop if you're looking to purchase a jacket in Florence! read more

Beautifully crafted, high quality leather jackets that were way beyond what I can afford. I did buy a wonderful leather belt and enjoyed meeting Mario, the designer, who warmly welcomed us. Highly recommend for anyone who is looking for a buttery soft leather coat. read more

Bought a BEAUTIFUL leather trench coat in an exquisite grey/light blue. Was going to go with a boring brown and Mario talked me in to this and he sure does have style! He is so fun and knowledgeable not only about leather goods but fashion! He showed me a couple different ways to wear it. I would also like to commend the gentleman working in the front of the store that talked me into coming in (wish I could remember his name!). Talk about a friendly, so sweet (not pushy) person that caught my attention with his witty comments. Thank you! I can't wait to be the envy of my friends back in Santa Barbara.... read more

Do NOT go here. It is a scam. The leather is not real. Do some research, check out travel blogs (bellasabroad will tell you all you need to know!). Also, buy from ITALIANS (not foreigners) if you want authentic leather from a real business owner (you will see the difference when going to a authentic Italian retailer, like Benheart). These guys will flatter and then overcharge you. Go into the city, pay €200-300; there is NO need to pay the price they're asking. They will tell you they make and design them, meanwhile there are shipping boxes full of coats (intentionally hidden) with Chinese shipping labels on them. They have boxes that say "made in Italy" which they transfer them into. They're also very strict about photos claiming they don't want someone to "copy their custom design" - no, they don't want their laundering scheme to get busted. If you read the great reviews, it's all about how well they were treated - they use flattering as a sales technique and 99% of people fall for it. Don't get hooked, walk away. Buyer beware! read more

I absolutely love this store!! Jimmy and Mario are the dream team. I came here are reading a blog on Pinterest about how amazing Jimmy was and everyone who visits the market should buy their leather from him! Jimmy was easy to find thanks to Yelp! The selection is out of this world! Mario is excellent at identifying what jackets fit your body type. They even do alterations if the jacket doesn't fit you exactly like you want it to. They customer service is outstanding and the quality is top notch! I highly recommend to anyone looking to buy leather while shopping in Florence. They even gave us recommendations for other places to shop such as for shoes, etc. I bought a jacket that was so fly my friend got the same one plus another jacket. If I had more room in my suitcase, I would've gotten a few more jackets. read more

After three visits to the shop, lots of good help, and trying on nearly every jacket in the store, I special ordered a beautiful blue leather jacket while in Florence. Something went wrong with the shipping the first time, but Jimmy was determined that I would get what I wanted. Unfortunately, (due to Covid supply chain complications) Jimmy was not able to get the correct leather in for a long time. But he never gave up. He finally got the correct color of leather, made my jacket, and sent me two more jackets to make up for the year that it took to get my original jacket. Thank you, Jimmy, for going above and beyond to keep a customer thousands of miles away happy even when it took a year. read more

I spent hours looking for a jacket because I didn't come here first!After a frustrating experience at the San Lorenzo market, I looked online for recommended shops. Save your time and energy and come to Jimmys. His stuff is very well made and is made with quality products, and its all beautiful!very unique designs. Im no leather expert but I went to several other shops and searched the whole market and nothing compared. Not only is his stuff top quality, but my experience in the shop was pleasant. This is a business so they of course want to sell, but I never felt like they were trying to intimidate me or badger me into buying,or use sketchy sales pitches which was the case at all the market vendors and most of the other shops I had been to. I'm very happy I chose Jimmys and will enjoy my gorgeous jacket for years to come. Thank you! read more

Jimmy's store is literally the best place to buy any type of leather or fur jacket. All of my friends and I have purchased from him over the years. On my recent trip to Florence, I stopped in just to look and was not planning on buying anything, but when I tried on an extremely stylish shearling jacket- i just had to buy it!! Their prices are unbeatable for how amazing the quality is and how up with the trends their jackets are. The jackets truly last forever and are the perfect splurge pieces to add to my coat collection. Thank you again Jimmy's Leather and Mario for all of your help! read more

This store is amazing! They are so helpful and definitely have a varied selection of wonderful coats. The quality of the leather is great. Super soft. Jimmy and Mario are knowledgeable and couldn't be more pleasant. They gave us a great deal. Highly recommended!!!! read more

Unique experience, amazing quality, friendly service. I came in not expecting to buy a jacket, I only went in because my sister wanted a leather jacket and this place was highly recommended. When browsing there were so many great options and Mario came and was very welcoming and helped us so much to find the perfect jacket that fits each of us. When I say he will match the style AND personality to you, I mean it. My sisters and I are all very different so our styles and personalities are not the same. But as we were talking, he found a jacket that fits each of our personalities (bold, dad/baggy, classic with a flair). The whole process of trying on the jackets and actually feeling like "wow this is me, this jacket was made for me" was such a unique experience. On top of that, the quality was top notch and designed so perfectly. My sisters and I went to a few leather stores before this one and they were great too, but it does not compare to this place! 10/10 amazing all around! read more

As I write this I'm sitting in the Firenze train station, it's rainy and it's cold. Only 2 hours ago I went to Jimmy's and made the best investment of my life by buying a jacket from Jhonny. Jimmys jackets are waterproofed and really keep out the cold and their service is unbelievable. I fully expected to walk in and try to be sold a jacket but, instead, I was given a conversation and a real experience. Jhonny gave great style recommendations and I left feeling more confident and satisfied than I've ever been. Thank you to Jimmys and the staff! I can't imagine buying from anybody else. The jackets are a must experience; pictures won't do them justice. Unbelievably soft and stylish. This is true quality from start to finish, the best in Italy without a doubt!! read more
