Cleaning + wear tips

Melissa shoes are highly durable and low-maintenance due to their unique MelFlex® PVC material. They are waterproof, scratch-resistant, and do not deform over time.

Wear tips

Melissa shoes should feel comfortable from the first wear, as the material does not stretch, but MelFlex® softens with body heat to gently mold to your foot; socks can help prevent blisters during the first few wears.

Cleaning tips

To keep your shoes looking and smelling their best, wipe with mild soap and a damp cloth, gently scrub stubborn dirt with a soft toothbrush, use a Magic Eraser only on white or light-colored styles, and always air-dry in the shade away from heat, direct sun, car trunks, and washing machines.

Vegan and cruelty-free

Made with vegan and cruelty-free materials.

Eco-friendly material

Made with eco-conscious PVC MelFlex® material.

Recycled material

Made using approximately 30% pre-consumer recycled material.

Reviews Summary
Customers say these platform sandals are super comfortable and cute, with many praising their stylish design and vibrant colors. Most find them true to size, though some suggest sizing up if between sizes as they run slightly small. Many appreciate how comfortable they are for all-day wear and walking around cities. However, some customers experience discomfort from the toe strap, describing it as stiff and painful, especially during longer wear. A few mention the sandals feel heavy. Overall, users love the adorable, modern design and find them perfect for summer activities, errands, and casual outings.
