Black Paris Texas Shoes and Boots: Every Finish, From Patent Lidia to Suede Dallas, Ranked
Black Paris Texas Shoes and Boots: Every Finish, From Patent Lidia to Suede Dallas, Ranked
Black is where Paris Texas starts and where most customers start with it: 105 of the 316 styles at Luxury Handbags are black, off black and the charcoal the house calls Carbone, at $1,150 to $3,080. The choice is not whether to buy black but which black: patent for the Lidia, suede for the Texan boot, nappa for the Stiletto, calf for the Bettina, and Carbone croc-embossed for the pair that never shows a scuff. This guide sorts the black range by shape and finish and ranks the ten to buy.
Key facts
- 105 black styles at Luxury Shoes : 78 boots, 13 mules, 10 slingbacks and pumps and 4 sandals, $1,150 to $3,080.
- Three blacks: Black, Off Black (a softer suede black on the Texan boots) and Carbone, the charcoal croc-embossed calf.
- Finishes in black: patent calf, calf suede and velour, nappa, calf leather, brushed leather, satin, velvet, python-print, croc-embossed, stretch nappa, Mongolian fur.
- The black patent Lidia mule at $1,150 and the black suede Anja and Bettina at $1,150 are the entry points to the range.
- Every pair is made in Italy on a leather sole lacquered to match the shoe; black soles are lacquered black, not pink.
Black mules and heels
The Lidia 105 mule in black patent is the shoe the label is known for and the pair to buy first; the Lidia 70 is the same at a working height. The black patent slingback and its 70 mm sister are the office pair. For evening, the black satin mule and the black velvet slingback with the crystal buckle; for texture without colour, the black python-print mule. The closed black patent pump is for a dress code, and the black patent T-strap sandal is the summer version. The Lidia mule guide and the slingback guide go deeper.
Black boots
The Dallas 100 in black suede is the signature Texan and the best-selling boot in the range; the El Dorado in black suede is the knee-high version. The Stiletto 105 in black nappa is the sharp knee boot, and the Carbone croc-embossed Stiletto is the same boot in the charcoal that hides its wear. For every day, the Anja 85 in black suede, the Jane 60 in black calf and the Vera 85 in black calf; for walking, the Bettina 25 in black calf and the Napa 20 on its rubber sole. The Mongolian fur Stiletto is the winter statement. The best Paris Texas boots ranks the wider range.

Which black finish
Patent reads as evening and office, keeps its shine with a damp cloth, and scuffs at the toe over time. Suede reads as daytime, takes colour beautifully and wants a protector spray and dry weather. Nappa is the softest and moulds to the foot. Calf leather is the hardest wearing plain finish. Croc-embossed calf is the one to buy if the shoe will be worn hard, because the texture hides everything. The patent guide, the suede guide and the croc and python-print guide go finish by finish, and the care guide covers all of them.
