A modern, comfort-forward take on the classic boat shoe
The LUCA Terra Low Boat Shoe is our take on the timeless maritime style. Built by artisans in our Portuguese factory, each pair is handcrafted from heavily oiled, water-resistant leather sourced from a storied European tannery. The design features a durable hand-sewn moc-toe with reinforced stitching all around. At the base, hand-pressed Lactae Hevea gum soles—in lieu of flat, unsupportive ones—with a custom tread pattern offer all-day comfort and solid traction on wet surfaces.
