About Palladium
Some icons begin in a place where you would least expect them. Palladium, for example, supplied rubber to the aviation industry from 1920 onwards — tyres and components, not shoes. When demand declined after the Second World War, the French brand put its rubber expertise to work on something new: shoes. In 1947, the Pallabrouse appeared, a lightweight, quick-drying canvas boot designed for the French Foreign Legion, followed by the Pampa for paratroopers. Those military boots proved indestructible and, decades later, became a street icon, worn everywhere from festival grounds to major cities. Since then, Palladium has stood for rugged, functional adventure boots with an unmistakable French edge: canvas, high lacing, a sole that can handle anything. No resale frenzy, just boots you can wear for years. And because the selection is extensive and every shop sets its own prices, the same pair of Palladium boots can easily differ by dozens of euros from one retailer to another. At Solezilla, you can compare the options in one place and find your size at the best price.
