Pisaverde

Top choice in La Laguna


The shoes at Pisaverde are quite a sight, with each pair uniquely fashioned and handcrafted with bold and brightly coloured leather and all manner of fabrics (including recycled materials too, such as car tyres). If you want some unique shoes to strut on the street, this is the place. Check out the full-length boot made for a drag queen.
