Heritage boot brand Palladium has expanded its range of footwear with new prints introduced in its Spring-Summer 2016 collection. Boasting new fashion silhouettes, a fresh seasonal colour palette and iconic prints, the collection reimagines floral, paisley, polka-dot and camouflage patterns with a modern twist. The boot brand also introduces a line of athleisure-inspired silhouettes that take design cues from the brand’s signature aesthetic, such as the rubber toecap and canvas lining.
Each shoe is designed in the context of city exploration, so you can be sure that every pair will offer comfort for traversing urban environments while remaining trendy when doing so.
Here’s a look at some of the patterns offered by this collection:
Floral

A classic emblem of femininity, the floral pattern was once a hard-to-come-by status symbol. In 1979, British manufacturers created a solution to mass-produce the print and florals have since become a closet staple. Palladium introduces its own rose floral pattern onto one of its most feminine silhouettes, the Baggy Heel. Perfect for transitional spring weather, the floral-printed Baggy Heel is available in three colourways, namely Black-Red-Pink-Roses, Black-White-Red-Roses and Salmon Pink-Linen-Roses.
Polka-Dot

From Minnie Mouse’s dress to high fashion looks designed by Christian Dior, the polka dot pattern is a go-to look for both casual and upscale dressing. Palladium updates its top selling Flex Collection with the playful print. The polka dot print will be offered in the Flex Lace and Flex Ballet silhouettes in black, blue, gray and peach.
Multicam

The French heavily used the camouflage pattern during World War I and usage of the print boomed during the Vietnam and Gulf Wars. Today, the print is a street style mainstay. For Spring-Summer 2016, Palladium has executed a Multicam variation on its Pampa Hi boot. The Multicam print is offered in four colours, which are Original Camo, Tropic Camo, Black Camo and Arid Camo.
The entire collection will hit local shores in May 2016, so stayed tuned if you’re looking to grab a pair of these gorgeous shoes!
