Who it's for: Women who want genuinely comfortable shoes or trainers that don't compromise on style — especially suited to those on their feet all day, or who need arch support without looking too casual.
Paul Green has built its reputation on one principle: that a beautifully made shoe should also be genuinely comfortable. Every pair is handcrafted, with orthopedically designed insoles, flexible outsoles, reinforced heel caps, and a breathable TENCEL-lined interior. The brand works exclusively with LWG-certified tanneries, ensuring the leather meets rigorous social and environmental standards.
In 2024, Paul Green completed a brand refresh in partnership with the Moodley design agency, modernising its visual identity under the tagline "My shoe, my way." The brand also launched a new sports-lifestyle offshoot, Tenhaag, focused on lightweight comfort with recycled and vegan materials — a sign of where quality European footwear is heading. Their manager Torsen Tesche described it as "The collection is focused on lightness, comfort and quality, with each shoe being rounded off by sustainable features such as recycled polyester, natural rubber and vegan material use."
Paul Green's 2026 Summer collection utilises earthy tones and is stronly influenced by Mallorca. The collection has a light airy feel with its use of textured suedes, perforated finishes and signature gold details.
