JOEY now showing MELISSA SHOES!

For the past 30 years Melissa has worked to produce jelly shoes that have a designer edge. The company has recently created partnerships with designers like Vivienne Westwood, Alexandre Herchcovitch, Isabela Capeto and Karim Rashid.

The plastic shoes are also eco-friendly because they are made of mostly recyclable materials, and can be recycled in turn to create new designs.  Melissa’s parent company, Grendene, has won a number of sustainability awards.

The shoes are relatively low-priced for a designer item, with most pairs costing less than $200. The Vivienne Westwood collaboration with Melissa, for example, sells for $132, while the Givenchy plastic gladiator sandal goes for $199.
