PataugasShoes Pataugas 

Pataugas, a brand of walking shoes, was established on 24th August 1950 by René Elissabide in the quaint village of Mauléon, nestled in the French Basque region. The brand's name is derived from the unique shoe-making process: a thick, grooved sole crafted from heated rubber paste using a gas burner. The durability of Pataugas shoes has made them a popular choice among generations of scouts, military personnel, and hikers of all stripes. Initially distributed by the Royer Group and later by the André Group, the brand was sold to a trio of French entrepreneurs from the Hopps Group holding company in March 2017. By 2023, the brand was taken over by the French group VGM Holding (Chaussea).

Acclaimed for its comfort and longevity, the Pataugas brand presents a collection of footwear that marries style with functionality. Crafted to brave the elements, Pataugas shoes are the go-to choice for urban explorers, owing to their sturdy soles and premium leather.

Their sophisticated design and meticulous detailing make them an ideal choice for those seeking to blend fashion with practicality. Be it a mountain hike or a city stroll, with Pataugas, comfort is always at your feet.

Pataugas presents two standout models: the Palme and the Jester Mix, each boasting unique characteristics.

The Palme model is an ultra-comfortable sandal, perfect for warm weather. Its design, both simple and stylish, makes it an excellent choice for any event.

Conversely, the Jester Mix is a relaxed, adaptable trainer style that blends fashion and comfort. With a range of colours available, it caters to all preferences.

Elegant yet relaxed, Pataugas footwear can be teamed with a wide array of ensembles. Here are some suggestions to spark your creativity:

• Embrace the autumn season with a pair of black Pataugas, skinny jeans and a cosy wool jumper.
• Opt for a summer vibe by coupling white Pataugas with a breezy dress and a raffia handbag.
• Infuse a dash of sophistication to your work attire with brown leather Pataugas, tailored trousers and a crisp white shirt.
• For a laid-back look, don colourful Pataugas with denim shorts and a relaxed T-shirt.
