Do you have extra large feet or strange shaped ones? Have some shoes made for you!!!
Here are some leads I’ve found so far for:
Shoe Maker • Zapatero • Zapateria • Shoe Repair • Leather Boots • Boot Maker • Calzado
NOTE: If you’re Getting CUSTOM MADE SHOES and BOOTS make sure to bring a sample picture of what you’re seeking and not many of these people speak English so if you don’t habla much Español, bring someone with you to make sure it’s all clear!!
MY FAVORITE LEATHER STORE!!!
My friend Katrina bought a handmade leather backpack at the leather shop that's in the Centro Mercado that makes things as well. Sorry - don't have the name, but I'd had that thing for 9 years now & I take it traveling, used to put my laptop & LOTS more stuff in it, it's my primary back for going to the market & weekly I haul 4 - 2 liter bottles of agua de pipa in it, groceries, etc. & it's still in MEGA STRONG GOOD condition!!!! They make shoes & all sorts of other things in leather!!!! If anyone finds this contact info I’d REALLY appreciate it!!Calzado JR

Laurie with Cariari B&B shared:
She went to a gal that had a leather shop in San Jose.
LOCATION: San Jose - Off Paseo Colon turn LEFT at the Scotia Bank Bldg. Then turn LEFT at either the 3rd or 2nd street and there was a leather shop aobut 25 meters on the Left - something about Saddles, Boots & etc.
A BUNCH OF LEATHER•BOOT MAKERS IN SAN JOSE:
I hear there are 3 or 4 Saddle•Boot Makers in San Jose in the area of Paseo Colon (AROUND Avenida 3 around Calle 24 or 26 ish) BillyGoatBruce share “They would be able to do any leather repairs or custom work you would want. Their usual boots are "Texas" (cowboy) style ("Botas Texanas" [I’ve heard they’re under $80-$100+!!]) and I think the saddles are also, but they do more than just those.”
