expertise. The Pertti Palmroth Shoe Manufacturers honour the traditions
of the past.

sophisticated women, who value high quality, design and comfort.
Pertti Palmroth boots have been known for luxurious materials and
fashionable designs for many decades. Today, the focus is on exclusive
footwear made of soft leathers and warm lamb skins along with the famous
all-weather boots.
The Pertti Palmroth -products are manufactured in own production units
in Finland. Company’s factories locate in Tampere and Virrat. The
majority of the products are exported – the largest export countries are
Scandinavia, USA, Canada, Germany, the Netherlands and increasingly
