With a well-deserved reputation for footwear par excellence, Paraboot's shoes endure both physically and aesthetically. Exclusively for Drake's, one of their most recognisable and iconic silhouettes, the Avignon, has the added sartorial flourish of a leather sole in place of the standard chunky rubber.

With the same heavy-duty waxy leather uppers and waterproof Norwegian welting that is de rigueur to the French cordwainers, the split toe seam and almond-shaped last add a touch of continental charm that works as well with tailoring as with light denim and a tee beneath a V-neck jumper à la French Ivy.

Please note, due to the use of natural fats, oils and waxes in the tanning process of Paraboot’s footwear, a white haze or ‘bloom’ can appear on the surface of the leather after storage. This can be brushed back into the leather with a shoe brush.
