Hand-sewn with meticulous attention to detail, this boat shoe utilizes premium, sea-ready leathers that thrive in salt, sun, and spray.

About
In 1935, Paul Sperry invented the world’s first boat shoe after watching his dog run effortlessly across ice. Nearly a century later, Sperry remains the definitive name in nautical footwear, blending functional innovation with a timeless, coastal aesthetic that feels at home on the deck or the dock.
