I scored my first pair of Palladium boots at Lavish & Squalor maybe 4 years ago. I loved them because they were leather, winter proof and looked like a really upscale and rugged Chuck Taylor.  Sadly, my cat pissed on them one day a few years later, and they were pretty much donz0.

I haven’t seen anything that matched their quality since this 2012 seasonal release of both glossy, woolly and tactical winter ready boots. (Another anecdote, I was once told by a friend that Palladium’s were the only boots their private school allowed them to wear because of their innocuous design.  I wonder if this new line would meet their standards?)

Knit-Lined Boot

Just in time for the cooler weather, heritage boot brand Palladium introduces the Knit-Lined Boot. An update on the brand’s iconic baggy silhouette, the Baggy Leather Knit is offered in two upper materials: a rugged “crazy horse” leather and a modern two-tone patent leather. As the boot becomes worn, the two-tone patent leather creases revealing the boot’s under-color— green for men and red for women. The boot’s knit sweater lining adds extra warmth and comfort, while a one-piece molded rubber outsole and thick-cut EVA sockliner provide increased durability.

PALLADIUM PAMPA TACTICAL BOOT

Palladium is also introducing an updated take on its Pampa Tactical boot for winter.  The new design features bridle brown, premium grade, rubberized leather and an olive nylon that offers high abrasion resistance. As functional as they are fashionable, the side zippers allow for easy entry. Vents on the inside heel, combined with a Dri-Lex™ moisture wicking lining, allow for superior breathability. An added plaid lining gives the boots a visual pop of color.
