The Paraboot Michael is a timeless, artisan-crafted low shoe designed for adults who prioritize heritage craftsmanship and long-term durability in their casual footwear. Featuring authentic Norwegian stitching and high-quality leather construction, these shoes offer exceptional comfort and a distinctive aesthetic for everyday wear. Potential owners should note that the robust construction requires a short break-in period to allow the premium leather to soften and mold to the foot.

While not fully waterproof, the Norwegian welt construction provides excellent water resistance compared to standard shoes.
Yes, one of the primary benefits of the Norwegian welt construction is that a cobbler can easily replace the sole once it wears down.
These shoes follow standard UK sizing; choose your regular size, keeping in mind the leather will stretch slightly over time.
They are best suited for casual or 'smart-casual' settings rather than strictly formal business or black-tie events.
Every pair of Paraboot Michael shoes is handcrafted in France.
This is normal for high-quality Norwegian-stitched leather; wear them for short periods indoors to gradually soften the material.
Clean the surface with a damp cloth, let it dry, and apply a small amount of leather conditioner or polish to restore its natural luster.
New natural rubber soles can be slick; lightly scuff the bottom of the soles on a rough surface to improve traction.
Because the Paraboot Michael uses premium leather, proper care is essential to maintain its longevity. Use a high-quality leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. When not in use, keep the shoes in a cool, dry place and use cedar shoe trees to help them maintain their shape and absorb residual moisture. For cleaning, wipe off dirt with a soft cloth and apply a neutral cream polish if necessary. As for compatibility, these shoes fit best with mid-weight socks and are true to standard UK sizing, though we recommend testing the fit during the afternoon when your feet are at their largest.
