Effortless Chic, Inspired by Muses: both Paris Platform Sneaker & Tech Runner Edition

both Paris is an independent footwear brand based in Paris. Our core philosophy lies in redefining the art and craftsmanship of vulcanized rubber. By seamlessly blending natural rubber with modern industrial, utilitarian street-gear, and high fashion, we create distinct footwear that balances avant-garde design (such as our iconic GAO and TYRES PLATFORM series) with exceptional durability.

Our signature material is high-quality natural rubber. To deliver ultimate comfort and texture, we pair our natural rubber soles with carefully selected calf leather, sheepskin, high-tech water-resistant nylon, or breathable canvas uppers—ensuring each piece is durable and exceptionally comfortable to wear.

• GAO Series (Architectural & Heavy-Duty): Defined by its bold, blocky, geometric lines, this series showcases the pinnacle of industrial geometry. If you favor strong visual weight and a rugged utility street aesthetic, the GAO series is your ideal choice.
• TYRES PLATFORM Series (Sculpted Tyre Tread): Inspired by the non-slip treads of automotive tyres, this series features a more rounded, fluid, and dynamic sole profile. If you prefer a streamlined, high-tech, and futuristic vibe, TYRES PLATFORM offers a uniquely kinetic visual statement.

• The GUM series is both Paris’s highly anticipated upcoming release. Continuing our profound exploration of rubber, the GUM series introduces a complete breakthrough in design and craftsmanship.
• A New Visual and Material Frontier: Departing from the rigid industrial geometry of the classic GAO series and the bold tyre treads of the TYRES PLATFORM, GUM focuses on organic translucent raw-gum textures.
• Launch Date: The GUM series is currently in its final unveiling phase and is scheduled for a synchronized global release in the near future.

Our footwear generally follows standard European sizing (EU).

• Standard Fit: We recommend checking the "Size Guide" on our official website to select the appropriate EU size based on your foot length in centimeters (CM).
• Platform/Oversized Styles (e.g., GAO Series): Due to the generous design of these outsoles, if you are between sizes or have a narrower foot shape, we generally recommend sizing down. Please refer to the specific size advice on each product page before purchasing.

Standard sport sneakers usually run slightly small, whereas both utilizes standard European dress-shoe lasts.

• Sizing Tip: We recommend that you do not directly compare your US sneaker sizes. The most accurate method is to check the JP size (in centimeters/CM) on your athletic sneakers. For example, if your foot length corresponds to 26cm, choose EU41 directly from our official size chart.
• Note: Chunky silhouettes (like the GAO EVA series) have a more spacious interior. If your centimeter measurement falls exactly on a half-size, we recommend opting for the size down.

Because our footwear extensively incorporates our exclusive vulcanized natural rubber process, daily maintenance is effortless. If there are stains on the outsole or rubber elements, simply wipe them gently with a soft, damp cloth and a touch of mild, neutral soap. To preserve the high-end texture of our rubber, avoid using harsh chemical solvents or machine washing.
