Melissa Possession - Black - UK 8

The shoes are made from Melissa's proprietary Melflex material, a type of PVC known for its flexibility, durability, and distinctive scent.

Refer to the product sizing chart provided by the retailer. Generally, Melissa shoes run true to size, but checking your foot measurement against their guide is recommended.

While the Melflex material is water-resistant, it is not fully waterproof. They are suitable for light rain, but prolonged exposure to heavy downpours is not recommended.

These ballet flats are designed to be worn without socks for a classic look. However, if you prefer wearing thin liner socks, they may fit, but it could alter the intended snug fit.

The Possession Ballerina is a reinterpretation of the iconic Possession weave into a closed-toe ballet flat silhouette, whereas the original Possession is typically an open-toe sandal.

Melissa shoes generally offer a comfortable footbed but do not typically feature significant built-in arch support. They are designed for style and everyday comfort.

The unique scent is a characteristic of the Melflex material and tends to fade over time with wear. It is most noticeable when the shoes are new.

Melissa shoes made from Melflex material often require a short break-in period. Wear them for short durations at home until they mold to your feet.

This can sometimes occur with the molding process. Try gently wiping with a damp cloth. Minor variations are inherent to the material.

This can happen with new Melflex shoes. Try applying a small amount of talcum powder or a specialized shoe lubricant inside the shoe where the rubbing occurs.

Ensure feet are completely dry. If needed, a small amount of talcum powder inside the shoe can help reduce friction.
