Rome: Leather Sandal-Making Workshop with Artisan｜Italy

Step into an authentic shoemaker’s artisan workshop in Rome and make a pair of leather sandals that is truly yours. In just 1.5 hours, go beyond watching and actually create your sandal from start to finish, working hands-on at the workbench with real tools like a hammer, glue, and professional shoemaking equipment, all provided.

After a quick introduction to the craft, choose from 3 styles and pick your favorite leather colors and pattern combinations. Then, guided step by step by an expert artisan, shape, assemble, and finish your sandal with the same techniques used in traditional Italian footwear making.

The experience is designed for beginners and creative travelers, with a small group of up to 5 people to keep it personal and relaxed, so you’ll always have support when you need it. And the best part: leave with a one-of-a-kind, 100% Made in Italy sandal that you made yourself, a souvenir you will actually wear, not just pack away.
