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.

We first discovered MDF on a trip to Venice in 2014. Michele had just opened his store and he…read moreshared with us his vision of Italian artisanship and bringing back meaning to the "Made in Italy" designation. I purchased one of his prototype purses (there were no logos then) and a belt, which are two of my favorite accessories. Fast forward 3 years and we visited the store again. Same beautiful styles and unique designs, with a little more "edge." I ended up purchasing one of the original purse styles (Borsa No. 1) in a different color, but all the items I previewed were gorgeous. If you want Italian craftsmanship with superior design and quality, look no further than Michele de Fina - Venezia. You will not be disappointed.

I had every opportunity to purchase a purse in Florence, Italy, but chose to wait and find just the perfect one.

Then we met the owner and designer, Ana, who changed the Murano glass button and talked with us about their unique hand crafted products from design to finish!

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 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.

The store was bustling on the weekend but the lines weren't too long (perhaps 4-5 customers waiting). The clothing appeared similar in quality to that of H&M stores in the US, as were the price points -- which I assume was a huge attraction since the exchange rate is so high. I didn't get the chance to peruse for too long, but noted that the items were the same as in the States (see the website). Therefore, I didn't feel the need to buy anything. This location isn't too large, as the aisles were pretty narrow. Good place to pick up some pieces though particularly if you forgot to pack something.
