CATS Shoe Shop

CATS has been doing custom leather shoes and bags for over 20 years, and it shows. Anita and the team are the main reason people come back – they actually listen to what you want, which matters a lot when you’re trying to explain a boot design through a language barrier.

The shop earns its reputation most with difficult fits. If you have wide, large, or otherwise annoying feet that have always made off-the-rack shoes a headache, this is exactly the kind of place you come to Hoi An for. Custom stitching, choice of leathers, bags with quality lining – the range of what they’ll make is broader than most competitors on the street.

Pricing sits above the cheaper end of Hoi An’s shoe shops, and that’s fair. A large family order can run into four figures AUD without blinking. Worth knowing before you walk in.
