Where to Buy Handmade Leather Shoes in Vietnam
By Viet Anh Nguyen on Sep 26, 2026
Vietnam has a growing community of independent shoemakers. If you are looking for handmade leather shoes in Vietnam, choose a workshop that understands proportion, construction, comfort and long-term wear.
What makes a handmade shoe worth choosing?
A well-made leather shoe brings together a balanced last, carefully cut leather, clean stitching and thoughtful finishing. At Colin Martin, each pair is made to order by our own team of skilled shoemakers. The process includes hand cutting, shaping the last, stitching and forming the sole, then applying colour by hand.
Blake stitched or Goodyear welted?
Blake stitched shoes are light and flexible, with an elegant close-cut sole. Goodyear welted shoes offer a more substantial structure and are often chosen for durability and future resoling. The best choice depends on how you wear your shoes, your climate and the silhouette you prefer.
Choose the right style
Oxford shoes suit formal dressing. Derby shoes are versatile and comfortable across wardrobes. Loafers are easy to wear with softer tailoring, while monkstrap shoes add character and boots provide additional structure.
Explore our Oxford shoes, Derby shoes, loafers, monkstrap shoes and boots.
Comfort and sizing
Colin Martin refines reinforcement around selected areas of the toe and heel for a softer, more flexible feel while preserving the silhouette. Supple, breathable leather is selected for the lining and footbed. Our size guide includes US, EU, UK, centimetres and inches. Foot measurement is optional.
