Binding : Apparel Product Description Crafted in France, these Crafted in France, these striking shoes from Paraboot are finished in suede with classic wingtip detailing. A handsome classic with versatile style. For 100 years from their factory in France, Paraboot shoes has been producing beautiful crafted mens shoes that are made to last. With a wide range of styles of casual and dress shoes and boots, Paraboot brings tradition and long lasting versatility to every shoe they build by hand. Paraboot is the world leader in Norwegian construction. The principle is that the upper is fixed to the sole by means of an assembly insole, using a welt and two visible lines of stitches: welt stitching on the upper and lock stitching on the sole. It is also possible not to have a welt, in which case the two lines of stitches are sewn directly onto the leather at the bottom of the upper; this serves as a welt. Norwegian construction was originally used especially for mountain boots and other intensive uses. It is now also used for smart dress shoes. Advantages: Norwegian construction is both strong and flexible, making our shoes sturdy and comfortable. The particular position of the welt makes shoes more waterproof and hard-wearing. By the way, this technique has a number of different names (another is Rovescia, storm welted) and has nothing to do with Norway! 0
