If the glove fits, buy it in Oltrarno
Things seem to be a little less expensive in Oltrarno, the other side of the Arno.
For example, gloves are 19€ to 35€ in Oltrarno. In Florence center, they are 30€ to 70€. Same is true of luggage, shoes, and clothing.
Shops are smaller, some designer-owned, but the things are just as beautiful.

Italy Travel - Florence Restaurant Mamma Gina
The Other Side of the Arno...Out of this World
Another stop for the locals is Mamma Gina, where the lombarta is a must, among the best that we've had.
The staff is extremely friendly, helpful, and immediately makes you feel welcome.
If we lived in the neighborhood, you'd frequently find us here.
[Proceed across the Ponte Vecchio, take the first right, Borgo San Iacopo, and it's short ways down on the left.]
