Pèpè

Pèpè Children's shoes are designed and made in Italy. These handmade shoes are iconic and refined, a benchmark of Italian craftsmanship. Pèpè pride themselves on the leather they use from Tuscany-based tannaries who master 'vegetable-based' tanning techniques. The structure and texture of the materials used is crucial for the durability of the finished product. Pèpè design their shoes to last, with the idea that they will be passed down to siblings and other children, to live a second life.

Depending on the leather, most Pèpè shoes just require a gentle wipe with a damp cloth, to keep dust and dirt off the leather. Heavier scuffs can be polished with a good quality leather polish if needed but we do not recommend the use of waterproofing sprays or treatments as these shoes have been carefully made without harmful chemicals.
