The town of Tarvisio (located just across the Italian border) is home to a large indoor market selling leather goods of all kinds, shoes, handbags, belts and jackets. Prices tend to be a little on the high side but haggling is the name of the game. If you have solid negotiating skills you can walk away with a good deal on fine leather goods.
