Fodor's Expert Review Osmanlı Sultan Çarık

Run by a helpful husband-and-wife team, this low-key little shop on the edge of Kaleiçi sells traditional, handmade Ottoman-style leather shoes and boots, as well as bags—all made here by the owner himself. In a city full of overpriced trinket shops, the items here are some of the most reasonably priced, beautiful, and unique souvenirs you could hope to find. Some shoes are made using only natural dyes, including pomegranate skins, which produce a deep crimson.
