Old Town, Hoi An

Friendly Shoe Shop runs its own on-site workshop with more than 40 artisans cutting and stitching leather shoes and bags to measure, rather than sending orders out to third-party makers. The shop has worked in Hoi An for over fifteen years, building a line of named signature styles alongside its custom commissions.

Hoi An

Blue Lotus Leather hand-cuts and hand-sews wallets, bags, and card holders in its Hoi An studio, and opens that same workshop to visitors for classes ranging from two-hour introductions to two-day advanced courses. The shop keeps its material focus narrow: leather only, finished by hand rather than machine.

Best for Handmade leather wallets, bags, and leather-craft classes

Hoi An, Quang Nam

Hoi An Lanterns Online ships handmade silk lanterns directly from workshops in the city, offering jacquard and printed-silk versions in the crane, lotus, and koi motifs long associated with the town's lantern trade. The catalog spans plain color lanterns for everyday use to UV-reactive neon designs made for events.

Best for Handmade silk lanterns shipped internationally

Tra Que Vegetable Village, Hoi An

Little Daisy Hoi An teaches hand embroidery, sewing, and crochet from a workshop in Tra Que Vegetable Village just outside the old town, and sells the linen clothing and embroidered pieces its staff and students make there. The setting away from the tourist core keeps it closer to a working studio than a souvenir counter.

Best for Hand-embroidered linen clothing and embroidery classes

Old Town, Hoi An

Reaching Out has trained and employed artisans with disabilities in Hoi An's old town since 2000, producing silver jewelry, ceramics, lacquerware, and textiles at its Arts & Crafts Shop rather than importing stock. The fair-trade workshop doubles as a teaching space, running lantern-folding sessions that put visitors in direct contact with the makers.
