Boat shoes are both designed for reliable functionality and a timeless staple of men's fashion—two characteristics that rarely go hand-in-hand. The rugged sensibility and iconic silhouette of boat shoes have made them a favorite of stylish men for more than eighty years. The traditional boat shoe features lacing around the collar, a moc toe, and a razor siped slip-resistant sole, but many variations on the original design exist today. The instantly recognizable boat shoe should be your go-to for any casual occasion. Whether you're on the deck of a ship or meeting up with friends, men's boat shoes are the perfect choice for laid-back nautical style!
Most of our boat shoes for men are made by Sperry, the inventors of the legendary design. Paul Sperry invented boat shoes to provide traction that would keep sailors safe on a slippery deck, and the popularity of his "Sperry Top-Siders" spread from seafarers to the general public. Today, Sperry and other top brands provide boat shoes in a wide variety of colors and styles. Boat shoes are the casual footwear preferred by men of taste, and we offer only the highest quality boat shoes at Englin's Fine Footwear!
