История моды
Founded in 1920 in France, Palladium initially manufactured aircraft tires using vulcanized rubber and canvas. Following World War II, the company applied this technology to footwear, producing the Pampa boot for the French Foreign Legion in 1947. The brand gained cultural significance in the 1970s and 1980s within the Parisian student protest movement and later the global grunge and rave scenes, establishing its role as a symbol of counterculture and functional fashion.
