Paraboot's iconic Michael, in real cow hair-on-hide leather.
+ Description
Made in France.

The Michael: Paraboot's most iconic shoe, first launched in 1945 and popular (and imitated) ever since. Made in hair-on-hide French cow leather, with a natural brown and white pattern. Due to the nature of real patterned cow hair, every pair, and every shoe, is unique.

Inspired by traditional Tyrolean work shoes from the early 1900s, the Michael features characteristic piped seams, two eyelets and chunky Norwegian welt seams securing the upper to Paraboot's famous Griff soles.

Now iconic as a city shoe, the Tyrolean work shoe heritage, the Norwegian welted construction and comfortable, grippy rubber soles, make Michael a perfect shoe for all year Scandinavian conditions, whether wet, icy or snow, or as it often happens: All three at the same time.

Note. We only ship Paraboot to Europe.
+ Fitguide

Paraboots generally fit true to size. They should fit comfortably snug on your feet, with enough room in front to freely wiggle your toes, and enough air around your foot to accommodate thicker socks for all-year use.

Certain styles have a slightly slimmer last, where costumers with wide feet often need to size up half a size. This is the case for the styles Michael, Chambord and Avoriaz.

+ Care

Invest a little time to care for your leather shoes every now and again, and you will be rewarded with shoes that last longer and look great.

How often you need to treat your shoes varies greatly depending on usage, weather and the terrain you're in. But when you feel it's time for a little care, we recommend to follow these easy steps:

Clean

Simply clean your suede shoes with a clean damp cloth, this is especially important to do if they've been exposed to salty slush during winter. Allow to dry.

For stains and spots, a crepe brush easily removes stains while preserving the nep of the suede. If needed for tougher stains, use a leather cleaner. 

Protect

Add extra protection to preserve your footwear. Saphir's Super Invulner spray waterproofs the most delicate leathers, and offers superior protection against water, stains and grease. This will protect your shoes from water and dirt.
