Philosophy
Palladium is women’s and men’s shoes brand pairing timeless style with premium materials and craftsmanship.
The company was founded in 1920 to make tires for the fledgling aviation industry. Its expertise was so advanced that soon the majority of Europe's aircraft were using Palladium tires.
After World War II Palladium decided to open a plant in Pont De Cheruy, France, to start producing footwear that was as hard wearing as their tires.
The original Pampa boot appeared in 1947 and was adopted by the French Foreign Legion: Palladium footwear is good enough to survive the harsh desert conditions and rugged mountainous terrain of Northern Africa.
Today, the original design, classic lines and time tested utility combines with modern manufacturing and cutting edge styling, Palladium boots are perfect to explore your street, your city, or the world.
The brand uses the finest 100% cotton stonewashed canvas to ensure a luxury vintage look and feel; the leathers, select from the world's best tanneries, are vegetable-dyed and of the highest grade available
Shoes and boots are recognized for combining classic, retro high-top and low-top sneaker styling—including rubber sidewalls and protective toe bumpers—with lugged, molded rubber soles that provide exceptional grip: athletic-shoe performance and youthful, edgy fashion in the same package.
Women’s shoes and boots take the same fun, active, vintage-inspired styles and add in a few more feminine colors.
