Italian leather shoes soaking in tubs of water and stuffed to regain original shape, Parisian coats with fur collars, American quilts and Korean silk and cotton futon blankets… Do they all come out of bales like this? Does the UN just drop them here? However, it works... S and T find the best stuff here and D has been a fan for a while. 
Seeing as most things at this market are second-hand, some locals scorn it... But if you want real leather shoes for women, or a stylish coat, this is probably your best bet. The other markets, while they have nice shoes for men (S noted this), the bulk of women's shoes are non-leather plastic-soled made-in-China deals... and the clothes - synthetic and shipped over from Turkey.
