I wish I could give more than 5 stars for Maria Büscher! My wife and I flew from the US to Munich…read moreand upon arrival we discovered that the airline decided to rip the zippers off my luggage so that I would not be able to close it once I unzipped it at the hotel. The next day we took the damaged lugagge to Maria Büscher to see if they could repair it as we were going to be in Munich for a week. Peter explained that it would take around 2 weeks to get it repaired since he had to mail it to another location to get fixed and then have it mailed back to his shop. He then gave us the most economical options for luggage to replace my damaged one. We settled on one and it is great - standard overhead carry-on size and it is durable (my wife and I's travels continued for another 4 weeks and we had no issues or any damage on the new luggage). I also ended up buying a beautiful leather belt as I accidentally left home without one. There is a great selection of products here, leather and otherwise - wallets, belts, hand bags, overhead carry-on and checked baggage sized luggage. My wife and I ended up hitching a ride to the Bayern match that evening with Peter and Manuel too. While we were at the store, I asked the best way to get to the stadium and they simply said you can come with us. I thought they were kidding at first, but no, they were serious. And my wife and I were very thankful. What started out as a need for a luggage repair or replacement, ended up with a friendship. Peter and Manuel are wonderful people, very nice and very accommodating. Oh also, their english is much better than my german, so there was no language barrier between us. If you are local to Munich, I'm sure you are already know about Maria Büscher. If you're a traveler and need any luggage, belt, wallet, etc. assistance while in Munich, don't worry about trying to find any other place other than Maria Büscher.

Étienne Aigner (November 8, 1904 - November 5, 2000) was the founder of Etienne Aigner US and…read moreEtienne Aigner AG, two presently separate high fashion houses, based in New York City and Munich, Germany. Both companies produce luxury goods including handbags, shoes, women's ready-to-wear, wallets, and leather accessories. I'm 77 years old and I can say Aigner was one of the very, if not the FIRST, high end fashion accessory that my mother taught me to love! My mother was a seamstress and when she was young wanted to be a fashion designer. It was not meant to be. I remember my first pair of Aigner leather sandals. I wore them for years and years. I've never had a pair that held up better than those and were comfortable too!! Naturally being a handbag fanatic I've owned Aigner leather bags. I'm recommending you visit this store or search for Aigner online. There's a location in NYC I'm going to look up. I may be mistaken but I believe my Dusseldorf Yelp friend Karen also loves Aigner. We have communicated about this a long time ago. I'm recommending!!

One of the things I love about Germany, is the culture of reuse and repair. It really surprised me…read morewhen I moved here that, you could repair most things and, bring them back to life. This is one of those places. Shoes go in here and, come back looking young and refreshed and, ready to take on the world ;-)) They have a repair shop and also a resident shoemaker. They do have a separate store for buying and fitting shoes (well I believe it belongs to the same people) and the repair shop. I have only ever used the repair shop and will check out the retail shop another time. I have been here a few times and their service is excellent. The prices are a bit high, however, for the quality of work it's worth it. I recently had two pairs of soles repaired and redone and, I think the sole will last longer than the shoe;-)) It's in my neighborhood and I use it often. It's nostalgic for me as, shops like this were common in India, growing up, and being able to do this here is excellent :-))

They are known for discounted language store and best value for Rimowa…read more This particular location was 5 minutes walk from Marienplatz. I researched on price while in US and also stopped by a store in Prague to check out their price. I can tell you their Rimowa price is the lowest and they will process for VAT refund paperwork. I ended up not buying Rimowa but purchased another suitcase and a backpack. Additional 10% off if you pay in cash or 5% off by card. Bring your passport if you plan on processing for a VAT refund. They scanned my passport and prepared required paperwork and envelope. Upon arriving at the airport, customs stamped on my receipt and I mailed an envelope at the airport. Staff at the store was very friendly and helpful.

I wanted to have an old shoulder bag of my wife's repaired and restored as a Christmas present. I…read moreeven pointed out the stains that I specifically wanted cleaned. I arrived only to find that the torn threading was sewn closed, which is of course good, but all of the stains were still present. Upon asking whether if there was a misunderstanding, Mr Köhler shrugged and said "I don't know how I can make an old bag look like a new bag." Not even an attempt was made at cleaning the stains. He did rub some leather conditioner into the bag, which I could have done myself. The sewing job was good though, so he gets one star for that.
