Fratelli Rosetti

Wohl der beste Schuhladen in Venedig, direkt am Campo San Salvador, nicht zu übersehen, gegenüber der Kirche. Vor einigen Jahren hat nun direkt an der Salizzada di San Moisè, neben dem Sotoportego Foscari eine Filiale eröffnet, die sich mehr auf Damenschuhe konzentriert. Die Preise sind zwar etwas gehoben, dafür sind Stil und Qualität selbstverständlichen entsprechend — ebenso der Service!

I first discovered this brand when we visited the Gallarie Lafayette in Paris a few years ago and been 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.
