The best fashion and gift stores Côte Amalfitaine

Stroll through the pretty alleys of Sorrento and the gardens of Villa Comunale, yes, but in sandals! Since 1950 and three generations of shoemakers, this small shop has been making custom-made leather sandals. It takes from five minutes to a day to make them, depending on the model required. The shop offers a very large catalogue, but you can also get a completely customised model. On the walls, photos and postcards of the Blessed Virgin mingle with letters and photos of delighted customers.

A shop not to be missed for lovers of typical and beautiful souvenirs. Both Paola and Alexandra, her colleague, are passionate about antiques. They will find the object you are looking for in no time. Antique books, Neapolitan crib figures, Amalfi papers, paintings, notebooks and above all the house specialty: old 18th and 19th century prints of landscapes or maps of Italy. Just a stone's throw from the ancient arsenals of the Republic of Amalfi, a good address for a gift that stands out from the crowd.
