The Soles of Paraboot

Paraboot is well-known in China, and it can even be said that it is the most popular French dress shoe brand in China.

Paraboot classic models all use Norwegian construction, and offer at an inexpensive price.

The history of Paraboot may not be known by many people, but it’s not important. What’s important is that it is the earliest shoe with rubber soles in France and the rubber soles are also produced by itself.

Today, I’m going to talk about this treasure that many people don’t know carefully, even those who like Paraboot, and that is the choice of soles.

Paraboot has 3 sole options, which used to have names, but now the official doesn’t mention them, so let’s look at them directly with pictures.

Three most iconic models are just on three different soles, so we can classify them directly by shoe model.

Michael

This is the most plagiarized style of Paraboot, and it is also the most original and iconic style of this brand.

So many brand plagiarism has already proved its success, and I think it’s great!

What is the sole like?

I doubt that this sole is the oldest one among its sole options, because the design is simple. Then there are no stitches under it. It must have been sewn on the midsole and the last outsole glue stuck on it.

This pair of shoes is said to be used for mountaineering, and this sole is quite reasonable.

Chambord

Michael, because there are too many brands plagiarizing it, people may not choose Paraboot if they go for this model, and Chambord may be the most important shoe model of Paraboot at present.

It’s not that no one copied this style, but it seems to me that the charm has not been copied to 100%.

In my eyes, this is the most rough model of Paraboot.

The sole is also the most iconic. I don’t know what RP means, but the recognition of this sole is absolutely perfect. It is also the only one sewn on the bottom of the three.

Avignon

This is my personal favorite shoe because the toe is more exquisite.

As a classic style that all major leather shoes brands have, Split Derby still has its own flavor.

Compared with Michael’s mountaineer sole, it is a little more urban. Although it is rougher than the rubber sole of formal shoes, such as the City sole, it is already the limit of this brand.

Summary

I hope to let you know the different details of shoes, because since I saw that sentence, I especially agree that “elegance lies in knowing how to choose.”
