MelFlex® is Melissa’s signature flexible PVC-based jelly material, designed to feel soft, durable, and lightweight.

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.

    Concert Tested

    These shoes are amazing! But not only that, they are extremely comfortable. I wore them for 8 hours at a concert, walking everywhere, and never got a blister or even noticed my feet getting tired. 10/10!

    The shoe is great, but...

    Unfortunately, the "Pink" color is much lighter than what is shown on the website by several shades; basically a light pink instead of fuchsia/hot pink. The shoe is beautiful, stylish, and comfortable but the color was not to my liking.

    Cute, but smelly!

    I was happy with these shoes, except for the fact that they have a very strong chemical odor. They actually made my whole bedroom smell. Otherwise, they are both cute and comfortable.

    Love!

    I absolutely love these sandals! So cute and unbelievably comfortable. Not one one blister from first wear - straps are soft, footbed like a pillow. So good!
