La Rapida

Sorrento


There are numerous shops selling leather sandals in the centro storico, but head to the far end of Via Fuoro and you’ll find this tiny, old-fashioned cobbler. It doesn’t have a huge range, but the quality’s as good as anywhere else and the prices (from €30) are generally better. It also does repairs.
