For over 100 years, Paraboot have been manufacturing durable, stylish rubber soled footwear in France, and we’re happy to welcome them to our lineup of brands for Autumn/Winter 2017. Just in time for the inclement weather, Paraboot shoes and boots are built to withstand any and all conditions, with full-grain leather uppers, thick traction rubber outsoles and exceptionally durable, double-stitched Norwegian welting to keep your feet dry and comfortable.

Our initial offering comprises two all-time classic styles: the Michael Shoe and the Avioraz Mountain Boot. The Michael shoe boasts a chunky profile with a mocassin-style upper on a commando sole unit, and is easily dressed up or down depending on what you want to wear with it; team with a substantial wool suit trouser for a smart look, or with cropped or rolled corduroy pants for a more casual vibe.

The Avioraz boot is a classic mountaineering boot in waxy leather with a heavy-ridged tread, striped rope laces and metal lace hardware, while still boasting a slim, well-proportioned last that balances style and functionality perfectly. Team them with heavy jeans or substantial wool trousers and your favourite knitwear to get yourself ready for winter.

Both styles of Patarboots are available online and in-store now at Aphrodite Clothing.
