Palladium Boots: the fashionable side of tactical gear
Today�s post isn�t about the most tactical boots in the world, although they did start out that way. No, today it�s all about the fashion side of tactical gear, and what better way to jump on the military-inspired trend than to look at Palladium boots? Palladium has been making quality canvas and rubber products since its founding as a airplane tire manufacturer in 1920. It perfected the design of early tires, which consisted of layered canvas bands underneath vulcanized rubber. But with the end of World War II, demand for airplane tires drastically declined and the company needed to find an outlet for its expertise: thus the Pampa was born. In 1947, this rugged boot was adopted by the French Foreign Legion and saw action in North Africa and the Atlas Mountains. Be sure to take a look at our full line up of military footwear before making a final decision on which boots to buy.
Today, the durable, classic style of the Palladium Pampa Hi Canvas boot has become increasingly popular. Will Smith even wore a pair in I Am Legend. Don�t be fooled, though: the Pampa has more than just good looks.
