SOY NICA

At dinner tonight, I pulled out my wallet to pay, as I have for the last 14 years. I mentioned to my wife that I absolutely love my wallet that I have carried around every day of my life since I bought it 14 years ago. It is worn of course, but its stitching and leather is still perfect. I may use it for the rest of my life. This is my only Google review ever... so the fact im leaving this means alot. Thanks for the quality product!

Exceptional design and craftsmanship. It was also delightful meeting and chatting with the owner. We left very satisfied with our purchases. Highly recommended.

Bought 2 pieces and love them!! Wanted to originally buy something in Masaya but all seemed tourist traps - go to this place for good quality & value!

Martin is the owner and he is the nicest guy. He talked to me at length about his work, experience in leather working, his move to Nica from Europe, and also about my trip and experience in the country. His work is truly world class and reflects his family’s 200 years in the leather working industry. I bought a small sidebag for daily use, and started using it immediately. Within one day I realized I don’t need any other small bag. It fits my passport securely and perfectly, as well as my phone and other bits and is so compact and comfortable I don’t even notice it is there. I get a compliment on it every time I go out of the house. His prices are wildly good. Just go here and give yourself at least an hour to look at everything he has. I could have easily spent two hours there. Additionally I got 15 small wallets, and a couple small shoulder bags as gifts and without question they were the bests gifts I have brought back from a trip ever. Everyone was amazed at the quality and design. There truly is no other shop like this in the world imo, and was one of my favorite experiences over the last few weeks of travel in Nicaragua and CR. Thanks Martin!

Exquisitely handmade leather products! My favorite handbag is from here and I’ve carried it almost every day for a year. It has become even more beautiful with wear. I recently purchased some more for gifts and the recipients were thrilled! I highly recommend Martin and his team for their wonderful service and attention to detail. Love this boutique!

Absolutely gorgeous products - there is an incredible range of handbags, satchels, purses, wallets, etc. All of incredible quality - pure leather, Nicaraguan made in a sustainable and fair way, with Scandi design. Wish I could’ve bought the whole shop. Definitely worth a visit in Granada (not least to meet the very charming owner)

If you're looking for a great gift to bring back home (or hey, something for yourself, let's be honest) Soy Nica is the place to visit. All items in the stores are finely crafted leather goods made locally. Belts, purses, key chains, backpacks...the list is long. Definitely a place to check out!

Actual handmade leather goods made locally in Granada! High quality and good value. Make for great gifts. We purchased some gifts and my wife got a nice handbag. The owner is very friendly and gave my kids a tour of the operation. Will recommend to family and friends for future trips. Close to the central park.
