Nostalgic former ravers and Madchester baggies may be interested to hear that unisex footwear brand Palladium is making a comeback.
The iconic canvas and rubber shoe has been relaunched under new ownership from K-Swiss.
Production processes have improved dramatically since the brand’s inception, resulting in a lighter and more comfortable range, although each design is as recognisable today as it was in 1947.
Palladium’s flagship product, the Pampa Hi ankle-boot remains available with the same looking single-piece moulded rubber outsole as was first popularised by the French Foreign Legion over 60 years ago, albeit with a variety of new cotton-upper finishes.
Among these finishes is a dyed and stonewashed grey metal option which also appears in the new Baggy style which retains the Pampa’s silhouette but with a higher fold-over ankle cuff, and the brand’s signature shoe, the Pampa Oxford. Wholesale prices range from £15 for the Pampa Oxford shoe with an attractive £35 retail price tag, and £17 for the Pampa Hi with a £40 retail price, through to £23 for the Baggy which will be priced at £55 at retail.
