I was getting disappointed with the quality of Converse boots before this whole thing kicked off. My partner suggested I try the French brand Paladium. The quality is much better. Apparently, the French paras use them. All I can say is they are more comfortable and last longer than my Converse ever did.
oh god, the high tops are so pretty
Or just buy one of the numerous no-name clones.
I’m willing to bet that most of them are made in China, which is famously not a part of Europe
And this Palladium Brand is owned by Xtep, which is a chinese company. If you take a look at the website, there is no indication that they are producing in France itself. Which is totally something you would find on such a website if they were producing in France
ugh
Ethletic (https://ethletic.com/) - it’s a German company (https://ethletic.com/en/kontakt_en/imprint/), the shoes are fairtrade certified, vegan and produced in Pakistan. I also like Victoria Shoes (https://www.calzadosvictoria.com/) which are produced in Spain (but they have a strange scent).
