Looking for a high quality leather store in Rome, and this came up as one on Yelp. It was ok, but truthfully, it was impossible to find excellent high end stores with products for men. Maybe the best hand made leather goods such as briefcases, wallets, portfolios, phone cases, etc. just don't get to these retailers and you need to do more searching. Bottom line is Rome leather stores are not much better than what you can find elsewhere. read more

This is the real deal! A true leather craftsman where each piece is carefully and expertly made. You can see it in the styles, the details - these are not mass produced items. Each handbag, wallet, leather belt, carrying case, travel bag are pieces of art. Even the collection of key chains which are mini versions of his handbag designs are exquisite! I bought a few to give as gifts. The owner and craftsman was there the two days I stopped in and i chatted with him briefly as I marvelEd over his well worn tools and workspace In the back. His wife also works at the shop and she is so helpful in showing you pieces based on your preferences. If you want a fine Italian leather bag made from quality leather, created by an expert craftsperson, that is unique in style and will last for years, visit this shop. The name says it all. read more

The leather was good quality, and prices were reasonable! Flazio was very attentive but quiet. He didn't need to "sell" his stuff, it sold its self!!! We bought a men's wallet, some gifts for family and a women's wallet! Will definitely go back! The website said it was closed but we came upon it and it was open. I would always double check. read more

LOVE this place and Aldo, Nadia, Sabrina. Highly recommend for bespoke leather goods.

I have visited Leather Craftsman twice on our visits to Italy. I bought beautiful handbags each time. In one of my handbags the lining is completely disintegrating and I can't use it as it gets over everything in my handbag and even under my fingernails when I reach into the bag. I'm very disappointed as this bag was large and quite expensive. read more

Posted as handmade Italian leather but items in store didn't appear to be anything other than mass produced.

THIS is the place to go for leather goods. I love mom and pop shops with leather goods made on premise. Met the owners, friendly, helpful and informative. High quality product, worth the money. Will last a lifetime. Highly recommend read more

My Husband and I met Aldo Filosini & his Wonderful Wife Natalina more than a decade ago when we found the Leather Craftman shop in Rome while visiting the Trevi Fountain. We could not believe the craftsmanship, quality and beautiful designs. We purchased several handbags, wallets, belts, a backpack and several key chains. When we returned to the U.S. everyone wanted to know where we shopped because they had visited Rome several times and never found the same quality products. Rome is full of mass produced low quality knockoffs. We have returned every year and have still never found another leather goods store that matches the quality of Aldo Filosini's hand made creations. Aldo Filosini has been hand crafting beautiful leather goods for more than 50 years and the quality of his work is unmatched anywhere in Europe. Over the years we have made dozens of purchases and now have friends and relatives asking us to send photos of Aldo's creations or asking us to Skype them from Aldo's shop so that we can purchase his beautiful handbags, wallets, backpacks, travel bags, and even brief cases for them. Once we had to purchase another piece of luggage to hold all of our purchases for the trip home. On our trip to Rome this week we noticed another shop that is using the same name "Leather Craftsman" that opened right across the street and found that some low-life has stolen Aldo's good name and is trying to profit off his reputation. When we entered the copycat shop he tried to convince us that he was the only "Leather Craftsman" and did not know Aldo Filosini (he was obviously lying). We eventually crossed the alley into Aldo's shop and purchased more than a thousand euros worth of his unique hand tanned, hand made creations. Don't be fooled by copycats, knockoffs and cheap imitators. You can miss seeing the Pantheon, miss seeing the Mouth of Truth or any one of a dozen Tourist sites in Rome, but Do Not miss visiting the real Leather Craftsman when in Rome. read more

Purchased two hand bags, a man's bag, 3 wallets and a belt. We would not have done that if the quality was not there. We believe in supporting small business even while traveling. read more

Expert handmade craftsmanship! Anything you purchase there is better than any souvenir and will instantly become a family heirloom. If you're in Rome you must stop by. read more

Nice selection, friendly staff. Small store but lots of options despite the low square footage

Great service wonderful selection! Found exactly what we were looking for, prices were very reasonable,a place you should visit

Was there 15 years ago and again today. My favourite leather place in Rome. Love the workshop at the back too.

Very nice! Local craftsman, real leather. Bought three belts, all were fitted and cut to size

We stopped in here on two different days because I really wanted some amazing authentic Italian leather. I bought my boyfriend a wallet the first visit and the second visit, he bought me a handbag. I love the smell of leather when you walk in. Prices seem pretty fair. The owner was in both days. He is amazing! He doesn't speak much English but he does great work. He initialed our wallet and bag for us. Totally awesome experience. read more

Aldo's shop is AMAZING. If you are looking for leather in Italy it is a must! My mom and I stumbled upon his shop about two years ago and she bought a stunning brown crossbody, and after seeing her use it every day and how beautifully the leather was wearing, I knew I had to come back when I booked another trip. I am so glad I did. I found the absolute perfect black leather bag at a very reasonable price - less than you'd pay for a mass produced leather tote even from Cuyana or Everlane (much less Tory Burch or Kate Spade!) All in all, my trip to Aldo's shop will be a memory for the rest of my life. Don't miss it. read more

If you are looking for an authentic, handmade Italian leather bag of good quality, stop in here! The prices are very fair with great craftsmanship. I purchased two bags, one slimmer envelop crossbody for 95 euros and the larger capacity crossbody with a multicolor leather hatch design for 170 euros. The owner can be seen working on new bags at his bench in the back of the shop, and he even came over to say hello. He stamped my initials into a tag for my new bags for free. Long story short, stop in here, it's worth it!!! read more

Visited this little shop in Rome last March while I was on a spring break trip. I was planning to seek out the store based on its good reviews but actually found it by accident near the Trevi fountain. I was searching for a quality leather messenger bag that I could carry to school or work, and I came across a bag that caught my eye. What I found was a handmade, quality piece of art that is unique and perfect for me. It is durable, has not started to sag, and is overall well made. I'm very happy with my purchase. read more

Leather Craftsman - Leather Goods Near Me - Rome, RM

I found this on Yelp. It wasn't that many reviews but all five stars. I decided to check it out on my last day in Roma since it's located by Trevi Fountain. It's a very cozy store full with hand made bags, wallets, belts, etc. I bought three handbags and they are not that expensive as I though would be. Excellent customer service!! Natalina was so patience with me because I couldn't find anything my mom would like at first. Finally she helped and showed me a cross-boy and I know my mom would love it. Also free initial for bags. She also helped me on the shop tax refund. I highly recommend you check out this store if you want to buy genuine leathers goods with moderate price. Happy shopping. read more

AMAZING! I also traveled to Florence and this was much better than any of the selection there. Certainly my best purchase of my trip to Italy. You can see Aldo, the owner, making all the leather items inside the shop! read more

Aldo is a genuine leather craftsman. He does amazing work. My sister and I both bought purses when in Italy 3 years ago and they are still holding strong. If you're looking for real leather, go here. There are plenty of people selling "real" leather bags on the streets or in pop up markets but they obviously aren't genuine. You can tell by looking at them and by the price tag that those bags are fake. This is not the case with Aldo's store. Step inside his shop and it's like stepping into an art gallery. His work is beautiful and he'll even personalize your items by adding your initials. I can't wait to go back to Italy and add to my Aldo Filosini collection! read more

We were there last September and the owner and his family could not have been greater. We picked out an awesome leather backpack for my wife. Aldo customized the bag from our suggestions and added my wife's initials.The quality of the leather is only available in Italy. They did everything possible to make the experience perfect. You can not do wrong by going here. I want to give a shout out to their daughter Tatianna, she is great. read more

This is a hidden gem. If you are looking for genuine expertly created leather creations, you must come here! Aldo and Natalina were a refreshing and welcoming pair of people with great talent, integrity, and creativity. I bought a beautiful handbag for a very fair price, with fantastic design and quality. I watched them working on other items... This is the real deal. Proudly crafted right there. Amazing! They also have a variety of smaller items that can be personalized. My friends and family will value the gifts I brought back for years to come I am sure. read more

Just visited this beautiful Nother store after reading the reviews on yelp. I wish we had gone there before we had gone to Florence for a day! If you're looking for some beautiful leather goods you should visit the store. You won't be disappointed read more

I went into this shop, owned by artisan Aldo Filosini, because I could see the products were made right there on the premises. You see, a lot things in the shops in Italy say "made in Italy," but they're actually made in China. If you don't care about that, that's cool, but I did care. Boy, am I glad I went in. GORGEOUS leather goods and I thought the prices were quite reasonable. I was like a kid in a candy store! Best of all I got to meet the sweet, humble Aldo. Just the kind of place you want to give your business to when you're on vaca. Highly recommend. read more

By far this is the best place to go if your looking for good quality leather items. The maker even personalized a tag for my purse that has my initials on it. I love my purse!! read more

The best shopping experience we had in Italy. Incredibly conscientious designer and craftsman.

One of the few authentic leather shops left in Italy that does not resell from a distributor. It's hard to find places that make their own stuff anymore! Had the pleasure of dealing with the kind owner and staff. Beautifully-made leather bags and accessories. Picked up a pocketbook, belt, and coin purse. You can get complimentary initials on your purchases, as well. True workmanship. Was a stunning outcome and enjoyable experience. read more
