Paraboot Reims/Marche Marron-Lis Écorce
The Paraboot Reims represents over a century of French shoemaking excellence. Founded in 1908 by Rémy-Alexis Richard in Izeaux, Isère, Paraboot has become one of the last emblems of "Made in France" and sewn shoes in the footwear world. Still based in the shadow of the French Alps, the family-run business continues to craft every pair using traditional methods and premium natural materials. The Reims loafer takes inspiration from Paraboot's iconic Michael shoe, reimagined with a distinctive saddle strap and chunky silhouette that delivers bold masculine character. Crafted in Marron-Lis Écorce—a rich brown smooth calfskin leather with a bark-like depth—this loafer features Norwegian welt construction and Paraboot's signature vulcanised rubber sole. The Reims combines casual elegance with everyday refinement, offering the durability and comfort that has defined Paraboot for over 115 years. As we celebrate 10 years of Burrows & Hare (2015-2025), this piece represents our shared commitment to exceptional craftsmanship and timeless design.
