An Iconic Template, Paraboot Makes High-End Footwear for All Occasions

Exhibitors Spotlight focuses on a selection of brands exhibiting at this year's Pitti Uomo, showcasing their upcoming collections and special upcoming projects.


Paraboot’s iconic footwear needs little introduction. The brand was founded on a solid DNA of premium styles constructed from solid materials. Created in 1908, Paraboot celebrated 112 years of activity in 2020.
Built to last, the brand's range of comfortable shoes and boots exude timeless style. Special attention is paid to every detail: from the selection of leather for the uppers to the cushioned linings and interlayers. The beauty of the brand lies in its classic silhouettes and elevated comfort.
 
FW21 sees the return of its signature styles, including the Michael, a Paraboot staple. Originally designed as a style solution for Italian men who needed a thick-soled shoe to go with their tweed jackets, corduroy trousers, and polo-neck jumpers, Michael served as the perfect accompaniment for the modern look. Designed with a distinctive ‘chunky’ silhouette, the shoe soon became the alternative for the sleeker shoe styles of the 90s.
With smooth leather styles and editions finished with bold natural cowhide, Paraboot’s ‘Goodyear’ and ‘Norwegian’ welted shoes are all manufactured in Saint Jean de Moirans. Over the years, the family-owned company has always chosen to retain its authentic production methods, perpetuating the brand values of durability, comfort, and timeless qualities.
The great thing about Paraboot’s range of styles is their versatility. From rugged, terrain-ready hiking boots to everyday styles, the brand provides looks for every occasion, balancing the fine line between the worlds of dress and workwear.
