SS26 - Garden of Wonders

Spring Summer 2026

Collection Statement

Some journeys begin quietly — with a first step taken in confidence.

For SS26, Pèpè Children Shoes presents Garden of Wonders, a collection where individuality grows as naturally as wildflowers. Rooted in craftsmanship and guided by imagination, the season celebrates children discovering their own rhythm and personal style.

Inspired by the tenderness of early memories — kindergartens, garden paths, summer afternoons — the collection blends nostalgic softness with contemporary clarity. Checked blues, sweet cherry motifs, and gentle pastel tones create a palette that feels both playful and refined.

Natural materials take center stage. Supple leathers, lightweight constructions, and delicate detailing reflect the brand’s commitment to quality and comfort. Sparkling yet subtle accents add light without excess. Silhouettes remain balanced — structured enough to feel polished, effortless enough to feel free.

There is a romantic thread running through SS26, but it never feels fragile. Instead, it cultivates confidence — encouraging children to step forward, express themselves, and grow surrounded by authenticity rather than uniformity.

Garden of Wonders is not simply about shoes.
It is about the freedom to move, to imagine, and to become.

Because childhood should be shaped by wonder — one step at a time.

About the Brand

The brand’s history dates back to the post-war years when it took its first steps in the framework of the Footwear Company PUPA, later renamed M.A.C.I., one of the foremost industrial hubs of the town of Vigevano, at that time the European shoe capital. Determined to create and produce a range of shoes for newborns, in 1966 the founder, Erideno Pizzetti, registered the trademark “PèPè”, inspired to the onomatopoeic word commonly used by children to designate shoes. In the 1970s, he set up a new, independent family-run, handicraft-oriented business, “Calzaturificio PèPè”, and committed all his energy and effort to making premium children’s footwear, ranging from newborn shoes to home and kindergarten slippers. As the Eighties approached, Dario joined the company and began supporting his father with two ambitious goals in mind: producing shoes 100% on site and broadening the design range. Towards the late Nineties, Dario’s wife Paola joined the company. It was the time when the first “collections” were presented and the current identity of Pèpè, hand-made children’s footwear, began to take shape. Iconic and refined, a benchmark of Italian craftsmanship, PèPè-branded shoes won international reputation.
