Imagine haggling for shoes in Ho Chi Minh City, many of you will fantasize about bargaining a great deal in the famous Ben Thanh Market. What if I told you this isn’t the best place to get a deal on good quality shoes? I wrote this article to give my readers a better insight on where to actually get quality shoes for a good price. I’ll help you dodge the majority of overpriced fakes peddled in the major tourist markets.

Using my expertise as a Vietnamese girl and a shoe fanatic, I’ll be showing you where I personally recommend buying shoes, how to inspect for quality and where to strike a bargain on high-quality shoes of all kinds. I’ll also discuss pricing so you can avoid overpaying when shopping for shoes in Saigon.

What Should You Know Ho Chi Minh City Shoes Shopping?

The footwear market in Vietnam is huge and diverse. There are many factories in Vietnam and surrounding countries manufacturing Shoes for the rest of the world. Which means travelers worldwide frequently shop for shoes when traveling to a big city in South East Asia. These travellers salivate over the idea of a great pair of brand name shoes for half the price. Here comes the truth…. You cannot find factory rejects in such big and iconic markets like the Ben Thanh Market. The truth is that most shoppers are being duped into buying low quality fakes at a high price. Any well-known shoe brands you see in Ben Thanh Market and Saigon Square are fake.

Without these tips chances are you’re going to waste a huge amount of money in return for something that is about to tear apart within a couple of weeks, or even days. Don’t make the mistake of expecting high quality at an incredibly cheap price anywhere that is known to cater to only tourists.

Okay, so that was the hard truth that might deflate some dreams of bringing back 12 pairs of legit Nike sneakers to the US for $100. Not all is lost though! I’m gonna give you some great tips on looking for quality shoes in Ho Chi Minh City, even if you are shopping in iconic places like the Ben Thanh Market.

Useful Tips to Identify Good-Quality Shoes

First, let’s discuss how to identify good-quality shoes that deserve the amount of money you pay for them. Depending on which kind of shoes you’re getting specifically, the criteria may vary. Here are four crucial tips to tell if a shoe is well-made or not.

If The Price Seems too Good to Be True, It is

Who doesn’t love a good deal? It’s such a rewarding feeling when you walk out of the store in a stunning pair of shoes after paying only a few bucks for them. That initial joy may turn sour after few weeks or even days. Your “victory” will soon break your heart as the heel is falling off or the leather is horribly scratched.

One big tip to avoiding a scam when buying shoes are to look at the price tag. I’m not advising you to buy something that costs a fortune but make sure you raise your eyebrow at a price that seems too good to be true.

In general, a good pair of shoes barely go for under $10 USD. Well-manufactured shoes cost a lot during the making process, from designing, using the right material, seaming, shipping and so on.

If you happen to get an offer of $20 USD for a pair of brand name sneakers in Ben Thanh Market or Saigon Square, you’ll know what to do!

The Tags Says it All

Checking the tags sewn on the tongue or side liner is another way to identify the quality of the item you have in your hands. Pay attention to the font, size, and colors of each digit and letter. Are they equally colored? Do they look even from letter to letter? How is it printed or sewn into the shoes?

If a tag is glued carelessly or blurred out, chances are those shoes are not gonna last as long as you would want them to. An authentic, well-made shoe should present its size on the inside or along the sole. If this is missing, I don’t recommend purchasing that shoe.

Check on the texture, color, and size

Colors

This may sound like a bizarre qualifier but premium shoes are barely covered with a flashy and flamboyant pigment. A quality shoe will look natural and eye-pleasing to customers. Poor-quality shoes sometimes come in showy colors with fun or random stickers. These shoes are much more likely to become faded and blurred shortly after a little bit of wear and tear.

Stitches

The seaming lines play a big role in telling if the shoes are worth it or not. If you spot out careless stitches that are rough and off-balance, the shoe is probably low-quality.

Don’t be afraid to take a closer look at the shoe to try and check for its quality. These types of defects are meant to be hidden and only discoverable to a suspicious and diligent customer.

Form

One of the most essential steps during the making of shoes is that the shoemakers will use their shoe own forms to produce a standard pair of shoes. These mechanical forms provide a shape similar to a human foot. This step ensures people feel comfy and confident in their walk without feeling stiff and painful.

Knowing this clearly will help you identify poor-quality shoes as most of the fakes or low-quality shoes look stiff, coarse, and they apparently don’t follow the structure of the human feet.

Take ‘Em for a Test Spin

Lastly, before you decide to purchase, make sure you walk around and double check to see how comfy it makes you feel. Sometimes the low quality of a shoe isn’t evident until you put it to use.

Shoes Markets in Ho Chi Minh City

Bargaining for shoes in local Markets, or anywhere else for that matter, brings a certain feeling for shopaholic travellers. The intensity of a bargain as you haggle to get a great deal but the seller isn’t budging, finally you walk away, but then wait! The dealer suddenly offers their “very best price”. In that treasured moment you feel like a champion ready to battle with every vendor in the market.

In this section, I’ll introduce the various markets where you may choose to do your haggling battles. Each market will vary so you’ll have to understand the market before you jump in and start shopping.

Ben Thanh Market

Ben Thanh Market is large. Spanning over 13,000 square meters with four different entry gates on each side. The footwear section is near the East Gate, which is written as “Cua Dong” in Vietnamese. You can easily navigate there by following Phan Chu Trinh street.

Ben Thanh market is overflowing with fake shoes of all various makes and models from Nike, Doc Martens, Puma, or any other brand you can think of. Keep a cool head, Use our tips about quality shoes to navigate to a vendor offering a decent product. A pair of shoes here should cost around $7 USD to $15 USD depending on its quality.

That will not be the starting price though. This is a tourist market where this vendor has another customer 10 minutes later who will pay way more than a wise shopper like yourself will pay.

• Address:  Le Loi Street, Ben Thanh Ward, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City
• Opening hours: 7 AM – 7 PM

Saigon Square

Compared to Ben Thanh Market, Saigon Square seems to be a better option for shopping regarding quality and price. This is also a great place to shop for those who don’t want to haggle or bargain. All of the prices here are set and most vendors won’t bargain.

Saigon Square is home to a massive collection of good-quality shoes made in Vietnam. Many native and Vietnamese from abroad like Saigon Square as their favorite market for shopping for this reason. Keep in mind that you should never expect to find original brand shoes here at a bargain, because any famous brands you see here are fakes. The fakes here should be high quality, and the selling price for them will be much cheaper than what you are told at other famous markets in Ho Chi Minh City.

• Addresses:
• 81 Nam Ky Khoi Nghia Street, District  1, Ho Chi Minh City
• 176 Hai Ba Trung Street, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City
• Opening hours: 9 AM – 9 PM

An Dong Market

An Dong Market is one of the biggest wholesale markets in Saigon. This is an ideal place if you are searching for a good shoe supplier to export or purchase in big quantities for your own retail shop. The shoes you’ll find here usually come from Guangzhou, Thailand, South Korea, Cambodia, or Vietnam. Due to such a huge selection of goods, the price range and quality here varies accordingly.

• Address: Cong Truong An Dong, Ward 9, District 5, Ho Chi Minh City
• Opening hours: 5:30 AM – 8 PM

Binh Tay Market

If Ben Thanh is the biggest retail market in Saigon, Binh Tay is the largest wholesale market. Most of the products here, including shoes are imported from China. They come in various models and types such as sneakers, sports shoes, sandals, flip flops and kids’ footwear.

As a wholesale market, buying shoes in small quantity is difficult and more expensive than purchasing wholesale. That’s why it’s easy to understand that sometimes the sellers refuse to sell when you want to buy shoes in just a small quantity.

Since their goods are only for wholesales buyers. Not every shop is the same, so depending on the vendor, they may or may not agree to sell shoes in small quantities.

• Address: 57A Thap Muoi, Ward 2, District 6, Ho Chi Minh City
• Opening hours: 6 AM – 7 PM

Russian Market

This is the only place in town where you can guarantee you will find large shoe sizes for both women and men. Most of the other stores in Saigon offer a normal size range for the Vietnamese feet. If you look for a size up to 45 or 49, Russian Market is the one place you should visit.

The merchandise here is mostly made in Vietnam for export to Russia or Europe. Hence, the size of both clothes and shoes are much bigger than typical Vietnamese wear. If you are looking for larger western sizes, then the Russian Market is a great option.

The shopkeepers here are friendly and respectful, so don’t worry about being pestered to buy. The opposite of what you will experience at the Ben Thanh Market. Please note that all of the prices here are fixed so haggling is not needed.

In our video, I met a really nice gentlemen with a good shoe store in the market is name is Hoang and is stall is “Shop D35 Lau 1 Cho Nga”

Address: 328 Vo Van Kiet Street, Co Giang Ward, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City.

Opening hours: 9 AM – 7 PM.

Shoe Shopping in Ho Chi Minh City Malls

The shopping malls in Vietnam are where you will find multiple famous shoe brands. Some of them include Nike, Stradivarius and Zara. Don’t expect to grab a pair of Nike at a cheaper price than the price offered back in your hometown. Brand name shoes in Vietnam are quite expensive if you want the real deal. There are sometimes deals and clearance sales just like everywhere else, so hitting up a shopping mall for a bargain might be a fun treasure hunt for a shoe shopper. Below is a list of shopping malls in Ho Chi Minh City:

Famous Local Shoe Streets in Ho Chi Minh City

This is a popular option for shopaholic travelers looking for shoes at an affordable price in Saigon apart from the malls and big markets.

Ho Chi Minh City Shoe Streets

Below, I’ve rounded up 5 big shopping shoe streets where you can find plenty of shoe boutiques. I’ve narrowed down the approximate addresses for the best places to shop along those streets.

Walking along these streets, you can easily find a wide range of footwear, such as sports shoes, heels, sandals, flip flops, ballerina slippers and many other kinds. These are either domestic brands or imported from Thailand, South Korea, and China.

Even though there are 5 local streets where you can find shoes, the best street for shopping as a traveller that I recommend is Nguyen Dinh Chieu street where you can find almost any kind of shoe you want for a great price.

This street is located right in the city center and you can easily find it. The best shoe stores assemble around Ban Co Market. Almost every shop you see around here is a famous local brand like Juno, Vina Giay or Biti’s. They sell mostly girls’ footwear in these stores like heels, sandals, ballerina slippers, dockside, boots and flip flops. The price range is roughly from $15 to $30 USD depending on style, brand, and quality.

This street became popular to the white collar local Vietnamese and young women in Saigon thanks to the affordable price, and the variety of footwear for all occasions. This is also a great place shop for fake designer hand bags which we wrote a guide for!

This section is near the backpacker area (Bui Vien – Cong Quynh).

The second shoe street worth mentioning is Nguyen Trai. This street is stretching from District 1 to District 5 but most of the best boutiques gather around the area of Nguyen Trai Hospital. This is a bit far outside of the typical Tourist area.

Luu Van Lang street is located at the right side of Ben Thanh Market. You can reach here from the West Gate of the Ben Thanh Market, which is perpendicular to Phan Boi Chau street. This is home to sandals, sneakers, pumps, and shoes which cost from $8 to $10 USD only.

On Le Van Sy street, Phu Nhuan District, there are dozens of shoe stores sitting next to each other. The area in front of the Ba Chuong Cathedral has the best shops in my opinion.

Another street that is worth a visit is Ly Chinh Thang street in District 3. There are not as many shops as on other 4 streets but the stores here are very popular. They are located near the Western Australian International School System.

Ho Chi Minh City Shoe Boutiques

The shoe streets above are great for saving time since you’ll definitely find something you like with so many options to choose from. However, for enthusiastic shoes lovers like me, I don’t mind visiting a smaller shop to grab what I like even though it’s far away from where I live.

Here are the most sought-after shoe boutiques that are always on the top of the list of Saigonese girls and guys!

There’s one thing you should note down, the Vietnamese shoe sizes are smaller than the average foreigner shoe sizes. When you are interested in a brand or a store listed below, make sure you give them a call to double check whether they offer the right sizes you need or not. Otherwise you may leave the stores with disappointment. Your hotel concierge can really be helpful with small requests like this.

Boutique Shops for Women

Naga

Most of the loyal customers at Naga are millennials who are university students or office staff. Naga offers a wide range of models which are made of polyurethane. It’s durable, modern, and convenient. These are ideal for a night out with your girls or for long days working in the office.

Another reason why Naga popular amongst the young locals in Saigon is that they offer online shopping. We can easily scan through their available items on Facebook or Instagram, which are daily updated, and place an order within just a few minutes. The shop itself is spacious, bright and all items are arranged neatly on each shelf.

Juno

Juno is a famous domestic brand widely praised by its customers. As of now, there are 81 branches open across Vietnam. If you work in the office daily, then Juno is definitely a good brand to keep in mind. A majority of Juno collections are designed and dedicated to the modern female who require convenience, comfort and also an eye-pleasing design.

You can find a broad range of stylish footwear here at Juno, most of which are heels and stilettos. Flip flops and sandals are also available, yet they come in limited models and colors.

In terms of the price range, Juno is well-known for its affordable prices. The shoes come in around $5 to $34 USD. Other than footwear, the bags are the second most popular item here which falls in the same price range. I believe the price range is reasonable for as reputable of a brand as Juno.

The brand also offers a lot of promotions and deals all year round. Many of us locals register for Juno membership, which means we usually get good deals, especially during the member’s birthday month with a 10% or 20% discount.

Regarding the quality, Juno never disappoints me. Some Juno items I’ve had at home for two years, and amazingly they last for quite some time even though I wear them often.

Boutique Shoe Shops in Ho Chi Minh City for Men

Men usually find it hard when going out to shop for shoes. Compared to women’s, men’s shoes may not be that diverse, both in design and stores to choose from. In this section, I’ll be walking you through two options for two different styles: gentlemen bespoke and sports shoes.

Tailor-made Bespoke Shoemakers

CNES

CNES has been rocking the bespoke shoemaking industry in Vietnam since 1994 and is proudly praised as the grandest shoemaking brand in Vietnam. All pairs of shoes and accessories are finely crafted by a group of 150 “artisans” who bring 200 pairs of shoes to CNES stores each day. For over 20 years of producing shoes, CNES has introduced the technique of making shoes by the Vietnamese to more than 30 different world-class shoe brands worldwide.

The price of a bespoke pair at CNES is affordable. Which includes bonus bundled deals like a belt, shoe trees, and more. The items are also available in many sizes and forms. At CNES, they sketch your feet and design the blucher in anyway you like.

The procedure of making a bespoke product here takes around 20 to 30 days after you have your feet measured. International delivery service is available. All you need to do is to pay the total amount of your shoe price beforehand and pay for the shipping fee by COD – Cash On Delivery.

At CNES stores, ready-made shoes are available. In case you cannot find the right shoe size, then you can offer to have your bespoke shoes tailored accordingly. You may love to scan through their stocks online, but if you need to have one tailor-made, you are advised to visit the store and meet the staff in person.

Otherwise, make sure you make a call and talk to them directly so they know exactly how to make the right shoes for you. The process of making bespoke shoes requires a good sophistication and details. That’s why a call or a visit is necessary.

You will feel like a true gentleman during your shopping time here at ManGii as the staff is excellent and accommodating.

One disadvantage is that the majority of ManGii shoes are not modern. If you are a fan of the classic look, then ManGii is the right choice. If you seek a more inventive and cutting-edge style, then other brands are probably more suitable.
