Boat shoes, join the revolution!

In 1935, over seventy years ago Paul Sperry invented a shoe for the person who loved the excitement and thrill of sailing on the ocean, he called them boat shoes. A well made boat shoe has a rubber sole to assist stability and slip resistance and leather upper for protection against the elements the boat shoe was born. Original boat shoes were so practical for sailors that even today the US Naval Academy still use them as part of their uniform.

Much has changed in the last few years and we are seeing a resurgence of the boat shoe, and as we have seen it’s not just for boats. New brands like Quayside and NFF have produced new and exciting styles which have taken off with the casual wearer and the wealthy buyer. More and more urban dwellers are buying these boat shoes, none of which will ever see the sea or a boat. These new designs of boat shoes take no more than a well fitting pair of jeans or trousers to make them stand out.
