- Elizabeth M6 contributionsBest leather jacket buying experienceComing to Florence and buying my leather jacket from Davide’s shop was a highlight of my Italian vacation. I bought a jacket from his shop years ago and knew I had to go back for another one. He is one of the nicest people I’ve met and will pick out a jacket that is right for you. There is no pressure to buy but you’ll want to after trying on many styles and falling in love with the perfect one. Thank you Davide for always making me feel special in your shop! I’ll be back I’m sure.Visited October 2023Traveled with familyWritten October 17, 2023
- Robert S1 contributionA true gem in FlorenceDavide was amazing. His shop is welcoming, his ability to help guide you with style and sizing are second to none. I have traveled the world and not experienced the combination of quality, attention to detail and customer service anywhere in the world that Davide showed. His passion for style and service was inspiring! A must visit while in Florence!Visited March 2024Traveled with friendsWritten March 11, 2024
- GinaTemecula, California9 contributionsLook no further for the best leather!The best leather in Florence Italy! Look no further! We are from California and my wife wanted a leather jacket that she could fall in love with, for as long as I could remember. The shopping experience was 1st class with Prosecco, and a classy, cozy environment. The owner Davide has an eye for what fits perfectly and has unbelievable knowledge of leather and the process it takes to make 1st class leather in his own factory. My wife is very particular when it comes getting a jacket that she could fall in love with. Davide delivered. Nothing is more powerful than when your wife says “I love it”. Thank you Davide for a wonderful experience!!!Visited March 2024Traveled as a coupleWritten March 11, 2024
- Roberta S3 contributionsFabulous personal shopping experience with Davide CerasiI came to Florence on a mission to purchase a high quality leather jacket made in Italy and designed and crafted by Italians. I knew enough to steer clear of the leather market, There is a dizzying array of shops that say leather factory etc. I wasn’t seeing the supple soft lamb skin that I coveted or the styles I prefer. I discovered Davide Cerasi looking through Rick Steves Guidebook. Conveniently located near the Ponte Vecchio, I knew I was in the right place to purchase my dream coat. Davide is Italian, designs all the jackets and supervises the excellent workmanship to produce a superior product that is classic and will make you happy for years to come. On this warm day he took a look at me and offered water right away. Personable and kind he picked out a jacket that fit like a glove, but I prefer something longer. No problem. With his gracious help I chose a black jacket with brown cuffs and collar, which zips from top and bottom. The leather is what you’re looking for, soft and supple. He is personable and fun to talk with. I never felt pressured to buy and I was confident that this truly was the real deal. We ended the sale with a selfie, goodby hugs and kisses and a promise to stop in before I leave Florence. Check him out, you won’t be sorry.Visited May 2024Traveled soloWritten May 16, 2024

I really don’t give poor reviews but I feel like I was not given a fair price for the jacket I purchased last week from this boutique. I had to pay the sticker price for the jacket. Well I returned the next day because I felt the price was too high and walked in the store as the owner was offering to discount a jacket for this other customer!! He did not know I was listening. At that point, I told him that it wasn’t fair that I wasn’t offered a discount and I wanted to return the jacket. He refused, started yelling at me, which was embarrassing. I’m not sure I would have been treated that way if I was a white customer. Further, he refused to offer a discount on the jacket. I will never purchase anything from this boutique. I had a better experience at the other leather shop I went to visit.

Dear jabus2018, i'm very surprised to read this review: i remember you were very friendly. I never yell at my clients and i offer discounts only when the circumstances allow it. I'm not even discussing the discount policies of my competitors because I don't know anything about their own businesses. Also, i take pride in serving clients of all ethnicities: I'm sure you remember the pictures of friends and customers the are in my store. Best regards, Davide

Years ago I purchased 2 leather jackets from Davide when I was in Florence. I wore them to death and since we are stuck in this pandemic and can't visualuze a trip to Italy for the conceivable future, I decided to try and order a new jacket online. I was amazed. Within a week of whatsapping him, I had my new jacket - made to order especially for me - delivered to me via FedX - in TEL AVIV. The jacket is gorgeous and fits perfectly. Whether you can visit in person or need to order something online, I highly recommend working with Davide. He is a prince!

This is the 3rd leather/suede jacket that I got in the last two years from Davide, a true artist and designer. His taste and the materials he works with are the best. The prices are quite reasonable given the exceptional quality of the skins.

Davide's store received a high ranking already and that was the reason my husband wanted to find it. It is an elegant little store facing the River Arno, very close to the famous Ponte Vecchio. Davide himself welcomed us warmly, and he gave us the undivided attention with showing, suggesting and helping us with finding the best style of leather jackets that matched our body and style. Florence is well-known for leather fashion products, but a lot of them are not good quality. His design is one-of-a kind and is made of a high quality leather. His products live up to the high expectation of leather that we'd bring back from Italy. We highly recommend him.

We came upon Davide’s shop when we got caught in a downpour and stopped for a snack and wine at a nearby cafe. Davide had come in for food and he had such a warm personality and told us he owned the shop next door. Once the rain stopped, we popped in and immediately felt like old friends. Davide has so many beautiful jackets. You can sense the passion and pride he has in his products. I’m excited about my purchase and can’t wait for cooler weather so I can wear my new jacket. If you are looking for fine Italian leather, don’t miss his shop.

An Italy trip was canceled due to COVID-19 this year. Still, I wanted to get my wife an anniversary present because she had enjoyed trying on Davide's coats during an earlier trip.
Even though I was halfway around the world, I could still contact Davide by email. I recommend this method if you can't make it to Florence. He is very responsive.
Davide was patient and collaborative because I was purchasing a coat sight-unseen and for someone else. I described the style and color jacket that I wanted, and I sent an old picture of my wife trying on one of his coat styles from the earlier trip. In return, he sent photos of several jackets in his current collection.
We eventually settled on a style, and the sale was no hassle. I wired funds, and Davide did a quick bit of shipping. I was pleasantly surprised that the coat made it from Florence to a central New York hub in about a day, and I received the coat days later after accounting for local delivery.
The coat is buttery soft, fits well, and looks great. My wife is happy, and I am too.
Thank you for making it easy.

If you are planning a trip to Florence - do yourself a favor and please go visit Davide's store. He is located close to the historic Ponte Vecchio and his store is full of the most cutting edge designs out there. This is not the leather you see at the Market - this is quality leather with beautiful stitching and design. He also has an uncanny ability to look at a person and know what will look most flattering on them.
Go, go, go......

After looking around Florence for a leather jacket, I came across Davide’s store.
The shop is well set out and inviting.
The customer service he provided was excellent, making sure my jacket was a perfect fit and I was 100% happy.
I would highly recommend Davide if you are in Florence looking for leather goods.

Davide Cerasi has the best and most unique selection of fur and leather jackets and purses. Honestly, you see the same designs over and over again in Florence, but Davide's designs are fresh, different and inspired. What's more, you won't find a friendlier, more amicable and helpful shop owner -- without being pushy. I bought a beautiful fur jacket from Davide over the holiday, and I'm still enjoying a piece I bought from him over 15 years ago. It's still stunning. If you like to look like an individual and not like everybody else, this is the place.

Davide's shop is wonderful! Most of the places to buy leather jackets in Florence are either cheap shops or overpriced designer brands. However, the jacket I bought from Davide was really high quality and a fair price. I gave a basic explanation of what I was looking for and he helped find & fit a great jacket. If you're looking for great Italian leather, this is the spot to go.
(Also, Davide's English was great, which made the shopping experience simple)

What's the best way to get from the cruise ship to shopping area in Florence Italy?
Written May 5, 2016
greetings
thank you for your email. pursuant to your request i think that the best way to get from your cruiseship to Florence is probably with a private chauffeur, otherwise you can take a train or a bus into town. If you have any further questions feel free to contact me and I will be happy to assist you.
Best regards

Written May 8, 2016

Written May 11, 2015
Hello!!! Yes, we do have plus sizes, and incase we do not have your size we can always custom make it for you. I'm looking forward to seeing you in September. Best Regards, Davide
