Company

Who is MIPACHA?

The journey of MIPACHA began in 2012, in Cuzco, the heart of Peru. All it took was one backpack, two Dutchies and an unstoppable desire to leave a positive footprint on our planet. Our designs are inspired by the beautiful Peruvian nature and culture. They're full of vibrant colours, bold patterns, and unique textures that help you express your sense of style. We're dedicated to crafting sustainable shoes that leave a positive impact on the planet and the communities we work with. Every step in MIPACHA sneakers is a step towards a brighter future.

Sustainability and social responsibility

Sustainability isn't just a buzzword for us. It's a core value that's woven into every step of our production and supply chain. All our materials are locally sourced and carefully developed to be sustainable. We don't cut corners when it comes to the environment, and we're certified to show it!

At MIPACHA, we take care of our people. Our designs are handcrafted by local artisans, and we always put their needs first. Our facilities have safe working conditions and our employees have benefits like health insurance, maternity leave, and a pension system. We also have a microloan system to help our team improve their quality of life.
