Paraboot

Founded in 1908 in France, Paraboot has become an institution for quality footwear. Known for its distinctive moc-toe silhouettes and rugged elegance, the brand continues to produce French-made shoes that combine durability and refinement. Signature models such as the Paraboot Michael, introduced in 1945 for life in the French Alps, showcase the brand’s commitment to timeless design and everyday functionality. Other iconic styles include the Barth, Briac, and Avoriaz, each reflecting Paraboot’s craftsmanship and versatility. While others turned to cheaper manufacturing methods, Paraboot remained committed to quality, still producing its own rubber soles from natural latex sourced from the Para region of Brazil. Each pair reflects a legacy of traditional shoemaking and enduring style.
