Stores in London

[jnns]

Hello everyone,
hope all of you are having a great day.
I’ll be visiting London this weekend and just wanted to ask for some recommendations on stores. Especially any that stock interesting leather makers.
Thank you all for any recommendations in advance!

Lewis Leathers is definitely worth a visit.

Yes Lewis Leathers is a must visit and I would also recommend Clutch Cafe. I don't think you can get a cup of coffee but they have a nice selection of clothes (a bit pricey though). https://clutch-cafe.com/

...and American Classics is also worth a visit.

...and Son of the Stag. Directly opposite the Rough-Trade Shop which is a must-visit for alternative music aficionados.

Where will you be staying?

I’ll be staying just a bit north of Kensington Gardens. So most are less than half an hour away from what Google tells me.

And thank you all for these wonderful suggestions. I’ll try to check out as many as I possibly can!

I see. Makes sense; lot of affordable accomodation around there.

Personally I find it´s always worth the while to stay ever so slightly off the mega-touristy routes. I always enjoy the general Fitzrovia area (where Lewis Leathers and also Clutch Cafe are situated) for browsing the shops, having a casual lunch or getting an afternoon pint in one of the more tranquile pubs.

Just shoot me a DM, if you like me to give you some food-ideas that won´t break the bank.
