The history of the Pacific sandal is rooted in the quest for a refined yet functional summer silhouette that doesn't compromise on the brand's legendary durability. Inspired by the traditional footwear of Gurkha soldiers, Paraboot reinterpreted this military heritage with a French artisanal lens, selecting only the finest raw materials to ensure long-distance walking comfort. The "Worker" spirit of the brand remains present even in its lighter styles, emphasizing the importance of a "beautifully done" product where every stitch serves a purpose and every material is chosen for its ability to age gracefully.
The Lisse America leather used for the Pacific is a high-grade oiled cowhide, valued for its supple texture and rich, deep brown hue. Unlike standard sandals, the Pacific is assembled using a specialized "soudé" (welded) construction on a "Sport" sole, which provides a modern, cushioned feel while maintaining the rugged DNA Paraboot is known for. The result is a versatile piece of footwear that offers the ventilation of a sandal with the technical robustness of a trekking shoe, allowing the wearer to transition effortlessly from casual settings to more formal summer occasions.
