Camper x Issey Miyake Peu Form

Last updated: 7 October 2026

What the Issey Miyake Peu Form is

Peu Form is the first shoe from the partnership between Camper and Issey Miyake. Issey Miyake launched it on 15 July 2025, after a preview event in Omotesando, Tokyo, that opened with a performance by the dancer Mariko Kakizaki. Camper put it on sale for autumn/winter 2025.

Both brands are about 50 years old. Camper was founded in Mallorca in 1975, and Issey Miyake showed his first collection in 1971. Peu means "foot" in Mallorquin, and it is the name of Camper's soft, barefoot-feeling shoe with a wide front and a rounded sole.

Satoshi Kondo built the design around Issey Miyake's idea of "a piece of cloth", where a garment starts as a single piece of fabric and takes its shape from the body inside it. In the Peu Form that piece is leather, and it drapes over the foot in loose folds, with no stiff toe cap and no laces, so each pair settles into the shape of whoever wears it.

Issey Miyake's own description, quoted by Dezeen at the launch: "The shoes envelope the foot like a second skin."

How the Peu Form is made and how it wears

Camper makes the Peu Form by hand in Portugal, from Italian leather. On the black pair the upper and the lining are both calfskin. The footbed is EVA, the light foam used in trainer soles, and it lifts out. The outsole is rubber, with the same round pods as the original Peu.

There are two ways to wear it. Pulled on properly, the leather wraps the heel like a soft slipper. Step on the back and it becomes a mule. Issey Miyake designed the heel to fold this way, so wearing it trodden down will not ruin it.

The unstructured upper also means the shoe squashes nearly flat, which Camper suggests for storage and packing.

Issey Miyake Peu Form colours, styles and sizes

• The shoe, £345: black, white, red, blue and silver. Silver is the new colour for autumn/winter 2026. The blue is close to the International Klein Blue of the 1950s artist Yves Klein.
• The ankle boot, £455: the same wrapped leather taken up over the ankle, in black, white and blue on Camper UK.
• Women's sizes: UK 2 to 9. On 7 October 2026 the black pair had sizes 3 to 7 in stock, and sizes 2, 8 and 9 had sold out.
• Men's sizes: Camper also lists the shoe in men's UK 5 to 13, at the same £345.

The black pair in our photograph is the one we link to above. The other colours are all on Camper's Peu Form collection page.

Who the Peu Form suits

• Issey Miyake fans: it carries the house's "piece of cloth" idea into a shoe, designed by the creative director himself.
• People with wide feet: the Peu sole has a broad, rounded toe box rather than a pointed last.
• Travellers: it folds nearly flat and slips on and off at airport security without laces.

If you like Camper but not the price, our page on the Camper Kobarah sandal covers a much cheaper pair from the same Mallorcan brand.

The limits

£345 is a lot for a soft shoe. The upper is unstructured, so there is no stiff heel counter and no built-in arch support. The footbed is removable, though, so an orthotic insole can go in.

The heel can be hard to get on. Camper's own reviews mention it: one buyer found the back kept folding down, so they wore the pair as mules. Another found the shoes narrow and short and said the sizing was off. If you are between sizes, Camper's free returns take some of the risk out of ordering the bigger pair.

Delivery can be slow. One reviewer waited four weeks because the order shipped from Spain, so order well ahead of a birthday or Christmas.

Soft calfskin creases and marks easily, and the folds are part of the look. Camper sells shoe cream from £10 and a polishing glove for £5 if you want to look after the leather.

Where to buy the Peu Form in the UK

Camper sells it direct on its UK site, with free delivery and returns. The product page also has a stock checker for Camper's own shops, which is useful if you want to try a size first.

If you shop through TopCashback, it lists Camper at 8% back on full-price items, which works out at about £23 on a £345 pair because the cashback is paid on the price without VAT. The catch is discount codes. Camper offers 10% off, or £34.50 on this pair, to anyone who joins its Walking Society, but TopCashback does not pay on codes it has not posted itself. So you have to choose between them: the code saves more on the day, and the cashback is paid later. Our TopCashback page explains how the site works and how to sign up.
