Our DNA
75 Years of Exploration
Palladium has adventure, discovery, and travel in its DNA. Established in Lyon, France in 1947, we have been making footprints in history for 75 years, staying at the heart of action and serving bold individuals who dare to reshape our world.
1991
Palladium was among the first brands to challenge customers to think about their impact on the world with our first line of sustainable shoes.
1920
Before Palladium started making footwear, Palladium’s rubber soles were spinning down the tarmac helping a generation of aviation pioneers map the skies.
1947
After WWII, the French Foreign Legion needed a shoe that was as tough as those who wore it. Palladium answered the call by creating the Pallabrousse boot in 1947 and later the Pampa in 1949.
1968
Strikes swept through Paris in May ’68 and the Palladium Pallatennis was adopted as the unofficial uniform of the student leaders.
1990s
Palladium found favor among the angsty, the spirited, and the culturally uncompromising, who appreciated the Pampa’s bold style and durability.
