“Authenticity, high quality, and appeal in all products.” In 1908, Rémy Richard-Pontvert began his career as a shoemaker. Paraboot is the only shoe manufacturer that produces its own rubber soles, and has continued to use the "Norwegian Welt" and "Goodyear Welt" construction methods since its founding. Paraboot's concept and policy is to continue these two hand-made methods in France for over 80 years, maintaining a position that can be said to be a tradition of French manufacturing. The quality of Paraboot, which represents MADE IN FRANCE, is recognized by people all over the world, and is used as the official shoes for French cars and for professional work shoes. Paraboot requires at least 150 processes to make a single pair of shoes. They create rubber soles using the natural latex of HEVREA rubber in a traditional method, and produce Paraboot Lisse leather, a calf leather with a very high oil content. The "Norwegian Welt" and "Goodyear Welt" construction methods have a structure where the body and sole are separated, making it easy to replace the soles. This easy sole replacement, along with the availability of genuine parts, is one of the reasons why Paraboot is loved by everyone.
