A striking counterpart to the classic Chambord, the Paraboot Avignon offers a more structured silhouette with a sharper, modern edge. Crafted in France by Paraboot’s skilled artisans, the Avignon is a split-toe Derby that effortlessly balances bold character with practical sophistication.

At first glance, the defining feature is its chisel-like apron seam – clean, angular, and refined – lending a more architectural shape compared to its rounder cousin. This makes the Avignon particularly suited for those who favour a slightly dressier profile without sacrificing comfort or versatility.

Built using the same durable Norwegian welt construction and Paraboot’s proprietary natural rubber soles, the Avignon provides exceptional grip and weather resistance. The use of full-grain leather ensures longevity and richness, while its fully resoleable build confirms that this is a shoe made for the long haul.

Ideal for those seeking a distinctive, everyday shoe with Continental charm, the Paraboot Avignon pairs effortlessly with tailored trousers, heavy denim, or smart-casual ensembles. It’s a discerning choice for the gentleman who wants something subtly different, but never shouty.
