Melissa

Melissa was founded in 1979 with the vision of transforming plastic into something extraordinary. The brand gained early success with the launch of its Aranha style, inspired by the footwear worn by French Riviera fishermen. This iconic design became a symbol for generations, establishing Melissa as a leader in fashionable, functional footwear.
Known for blending fashion, design and sustainability, Melissa has remained at the forefront of innovation. The brand uses Melflex®, a flexible, comfortable and recyclable PVC, in its shoes. This ensures that all Melissa footwear is not only stylish but also 100% recyclable and cruelty-free, aligning with the brand’s commitment to environmental responsibility.
Melissa is known for its creative collaborations, starting in 1983 with Jean-Paul Gaultier. These partnerships have since included iconic designers like Marc Jacobs, Telfar and Undercover. By blending high-fashion elements with Melissa’s signature comfort and sustainable materials, these collaborations infuse the brand’s collections with unique, avant-garde designs while maintaining everyday wearability.
