But it doesn't stop there, mateys: the best boat shoes should also work comfortably on land for any impromptu dockside activities or just a walk around town. All in all, the best boat shoes will have you sailing through life with panache.

The 10 Absolute Best Boat Shoes for Men
![horizontal black line horizontal black line](https://hips.hearstapps.com/hmg-prod/images/commerce-breaker-1663597731.png?crop=1xw:1xh;center,top&resize=980:*)
Cutting to the chase is the OG design that has never looked out of style and definitely never will. In fact, we believe that every man should try on this seaworthy style that has remained so popular for decades because they're just so comfy, you'll want to wear them all the time. The leather, for instance, is meticulously hand-sewn for enhanced durability and graceful aging. As you slip your feet into them, you'll also find yourself reveling in the secure, customized fit provided by the signature 360° lacing system. The tried-and-true outsole with razor-cut wave-sipping also offers unrivaled traction for true seafarers.
What we love most about these OGs is that they now come with an OrthoLite insole to envelop your underfoot in comfort and provide shock absorption to each step. Coupled with the inclusion of an EVA heel cup that adds an extra layer of cushioning, we were even able to travel in these shoes for hours.
A wise word, however: while we found Sperry's boat shoes effortlessly easy to break in, they do tend to stretch ever so slightly with each wear. Therefore, we warn against sizing up here for these.
Upper | Leather |
---|---|
Outsole | Rubber |
These boat shoes combine timeless aesthetics with modern features, and we were impressed by both their everyday performance and luxurious feel. Firstly, the smooth and plush linings caress your feet while ensuring a snug fit, and the fully cushioned footbed blessed with OrthoLite® high rebound foam offers unparalleled all-day comfort and flexibility. In our walking test, we found that each step is cushioned and supported by their footbed, ensuring our feet stay fatigue-free.
In addition, the lightweight and durable EVA sole provides optimal traction and stability, making these boat shoes perfect for both on-deck activities and casual outings. All in all, we love how you can confidently navigate various terrains with ease in these while still embracing a timeless summer style.
Upper | Leather |
---|---|
Outsole | Rubber |
If you're new to the boat shoe game and don't want to quite commit to Sperry-levels of preppiness, these are a happy medium. We were blown away by how comfortable and athletic they are with the look of a sneaker, but the level of ventilation, structure, and durability you need to hit the beach. The fabric also has both moisture-wicking and odor-reducing properties to keep your feet cool and dry. The brand's proprietary knit feels silky smooth on the skin and is breathable so you'll stay fresh throughout the journey.
Designed for everyday wear, The Tree Skipper's cushioned sole really impressed us with its comfort as well as flexibility that mimics the natural movement of your feet. Style-wise, we love that whether you're running errands or exploring new horizons, these shoes will nicely fit into your wardrobe.

Sperry Authentic Original Float Boat Shoe
![Authentic Original Float Boat Shoe Authentic Original Float Boat Shoe](https://hips.hearstapps.com/vader-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/1686753996-2-6489d2c7d438b.jpg?crop=1xw:1xh;center,top&resize=980:*)
It's no secret you'd be seeing Sperry at least a couple of times in this guide, but to those who have yet to discover their water shoe styles, we recommend checking them out. Our Fashion Director says that these are perfect for going in the water and enjoying getting your feet wet, yet protecting against rocks.
In our testing, we were impressed by its strong grip, courtesy of the brand's non-marking outsole with molded Wave-Siping™ tech. The holes placed on the upper and the sides are, you guessed it, perfect for draining the water out as well as for breathability. Fit-wise, we love its snugness due to the dynamic upper, but over time it does get loosened up a bit so we recommend sizing down a half.
Cole Haan 4.ZERØGRAND Regatta Boat Shoe
![4.ZERØGRAND Regatta Boat Shoe 4.ZERØGRAND Regatta Boat Shoe](https://hips.hearstapps.com/vader-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/1686754915-4-6489d65d55ebc.jpg?crop=1.00xw:0.890xh;0,0.110xh&resize=980:*)
Cole Haan again hits it out of the park on everyday comfort and versatility with these modern, sporty-looking boat shoes that are suitable for life on and off the water. Featuring a breathable mesh upper, these shoes offer excellent ventilation and quick drying capabilities. In fact, the nylon-based mesh not only keeps your feet comfortable but also breaks in soon as you slip in your feet to take the guesswork out of the fit. The Anchortrac™ outsole, on the other hand, is specifically engineered to keep you steady on your feet, whether you're on a boat or exploring the beach.
And, worried about water getting in? Don't be. These are also water shoes with a drainage system to accelerate water removal—no more soggy shoes slowing you down. And the brand's signature GRANDFØAM footbed absorbs shock and provides rebound with each step to keep your feet refreshed and energetic throughout your voyage.

SWIMS Braided Lace Loafer
![Braided Lace Loafer Braided Lace Loafer](https://hips.hearstapps.com/vader-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/1646970010-new-project-2022-03-10t203900-441-1646969953.png?crop=1xw:1xh;center,top&resize=980:*)
These are driving loafers moonlighting as boat shoes, and we love it. Featuring a ventilation and drainage system on the upper and sides, these shoes ensure optimal breathability and moisture management, making them perfect for swimming, pool parties, and generally any summer activity that involves water. The breathable fabric wicks away sweat and moisture as well while being able to withstand light rain or wet conditions.
In our experience of wearing water shoes, we pay extra attention to the outsoles to see if they're actually grippy, and the non-marking rubber here really impressed us with specially crafted treads that enhance grip and stability on slippery surfaces. Offering a true-to-size, no-breaking-in-needed fit, we recommend these boat shoes for avid travelers, city commuters, or outdoorsy adventurers in general who like to get wet.

Step aboard the epitome of style and ethical craftsmanship with these premium boat shoes. We were impressed by how well these are built for both strolling down the shore as well as walking in the city for hours on end. The attention to detail in craftsmanship really sets them apart and makes them worth the splurge: the calfskin lining offers a level of softness that feels like a gentle hug for your feet, and we found the leather upper easy to break in and will age gracefully.
Performance-wise, we love its lightweight construction and snug fit that molds to every step. The high-density memory foam insoles provide all-day cushioning, so you can wear them for long adventures as well. Plus, the Goodyear welted construction means they're built to last.

Set sail for summer style with these Clarks boat shoes that are as close to going barefoot as you can get without, well, going barefoot. Crafted with a breathable textile upper, the Higley Tie allows your feet to stay cool and fresh, perfect for those scorching summer days. We love how the outer of the shoes naturally contours to the shape of our foot, ensuring a customized fit that feels like an extension of yourself.
But the true game-changer lies within the EVA footbed which we found to be able to deliver all-day comfort. Each step feels effortless, and the textile linings provide an added layer of softness. While in a casual style, we also were impressed by the grippy outsole sole which ensures stability and traction, making them ideal for impromptu outdoor adventures as well.

Dockers Beacon Boat Shoe
![Beacon Boat Shoe Beacon Boat Shoe](https://hips.hearstapps.com/vader-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/1646969340-new-project-2022-03-10t202830-239-1646969327.png?crop=1xw:1xh;center,top&resize=980:*)
These boat shoes have it all in spades—modern style, affordability, classic vibe, and everyday performance. We love how they feel and look like sneakers but are actually slip-on shoes that are super easy to throw on. But what sets these boat shoes apart is their high rebound footbed that cushions each step while absorbing impact and shock to relieve pressure, and we found them indeed great for walking and standing all day. Additionally, the footbed is treated with Cleansport NTXTM technology, offering odor control and promoting good foot health.
The upper of these boat shoes is also worth a shoutout. Not only does it exude a classic sophistication to your look, but the breathable fabric linings inside also ensure optimal airflow, keeping your feet cool and comfortable throughout the day.
Rodd and Gunn Gordons Bay Boat Shoe
![Gordons Bay Boat Shoe Gordons Bay Boat Shoe](https://hips.hearstapps.com/vader-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/1686756858-ZX0430_NAVY_FT_LGE.jpg?crop=1.00xw:0.812xh;0,0.106xh&resize=980:*)
Embark on a journey of unparalleled comfort and style with Rodd & Gunn's boat shoes. Style-wise, they're true to the core boat shoe look but have the burnished leather uppers that easily spruce up your footwear game. The leather and canvas lining exudes a casual elegance, providing a comfortable and relaxed feel. But our favorite part about them is the performance. From the rigid anti-slip outsole that grounds your every step to the supportive footbed that cushions your every step, your feet will be able to keep up with the pace all day long.
We also love how versatile they are. Whether you're strolling along the shoreline or navigating the urban jungle, these boat shoes effortlessly adapt to any setting and pair very well with shorts or cuff jeans. With elasticated reinforcement across the tongue, you also have the freedom to remove the laces, transforming these shoes into a sophisticated slip-on for effortless style.

Made equally for fishing and rocking the dock, Columbia’s boat shoes have the streamlined profile of sneakers but are still your companion for seafaring adventures. We love their grippy outsole designed for wet-dry traction, and shock-absorbent midsole that’ll keep our underfoot comfortable during those marathon fishing trips. Plus, it's equipped with rust-proof hardware, stain-resistant treatment, and an antimicrobial footbed, because even the toughest outdoor person needs to stay fresh.
Sperry SeaCycled™ Authentic Original™ Baja Boat Shoe

Made for long days on the coast, a feature of the boat shoes is its water-resistance exterior fabric. If you truly want a waterproof shoe for, say, swimming and boating, then we suggest these sports shoes. A rubber-shell upper protects your feet and dries easily, while their neoprene collars make them easy to take on and off.
Sperry x J.Crew Authentic Original 2-eye boat shoes
![Authentic Original 2-eye boat shoes Authentic Original 2-eye boat shoes](https://hips.hearstapps.com/vader-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/1686755634-5-6489d92c26f65.jpg?crop=1.00xw:0.801xh;0,0.199xh&resize=980:*)
In this collab, we see Sperry's classic two-eye boat shoes style renovated in exclusive colors and better leather materials. The upper is still as easy to break in as your OGs, and the sole still provides the traction you need for dockside walks. But the sophisticated style is seriously turned up. Grab a pair so you can stand out amongst a sea of regular Sperry boat shoes.
Sea Star Beachwear Mariner Slip-on
![Mariner Slip-on Mariner Slip-on](https://hips.hearstapps.com/vader-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/1686756538-MMS_WHITEDENIM_T.png?crop=1xw:1xh;center,top&resize=980:*)
These Mariner water-ready espadrille style boat shoes are the ultimate for wading in the water, walking on rocky sands, and wearing to dinner once they dry (or not). They are super comfortable with stretch neoprene upper that is quick-drying and lightweight, and interior grommets for ventilation. The fabric also holds up for years to come.

More loafers than boat shoes but just as good for nautical fun, these take casual comfort to a whole new level. With a grippy EVA sole and a genuine moccasin construction, they are the perfect boat shoe for leisure drives by the beach or spontaneous dockside walks. Handsewn details and leather lining make them feel like comfy slippers, while the removable cushioned insole ensures your feet are always in shipshape condition.
Sail Leather Premium Boat Shoes
![Leather Premium Boat Shoes Leather Premium Boat Shoes](https://hips.hearstapps.com/vader-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/1686754467-r-6489d486a45c4.jpg?crop=1xw:1xh;center,top&resize=980:*)

Best boat shoes: From leather deck shoes to deck trainers
- Laura Hodgetts
- April 10, 2024
When picking the best boat shoes, it's often a choice between traditional moccasins that look the part but lack support and cushioning, or modern deck trainers that cover the sporty angle but are not understated. Is there a happy medium?
![yacht dress shoes Sperrin Winter Deck Shoes](https://keyassets.timeincuk.net/inspirewp/live/wp-content/uploads/sites/20/2023/10/Sperrin_Winter_Boat_Shoe-1536x867-1-630x356.jpg)
The nautical look never fails to triumph on the fashion circuit, which is why the best boat shoes – or deck shoes, as they are more commonly known in the boating world – are now as popular on the high street as they are on the water.
Given the fact the classic leather deck shoe was originally intended for use on the deck of a yacht, the design of the shoe included all the important elements such as good grip/non-marking soles, non-corrosive metal eyelets, and premium quality soft leather.
Nothing has changed in that respect and the classic leather boat shoe continues to dominate, particularly in the cruising world. For the more active sailor; those who spend a lot of time on deck while racing, there is also a huge choice of lightweight, technical deck trainers on the market.
With more and more specialist sailing clothing companies not only understanding the needs of those involved in high octane sailing, but also investing in huge amounts of research and development, these super-light sailing trainers are becoming more and more popular.
Here’s a selection of some of the best boat shoes on the market.

1 Dubarry Commodore XLT
Best lightweight boat shoes
Specifications : Sizes: 6 up | Colors: Chestnut, Navy, Navy / Brown, Old Rum, Mahogany | Material: Leather
Reasons to buy : Extra-light | Good cushioning | Three-hole lacing Reasons to avoid : Expensive | May prefer a stronger shoe for more support
YM editor Theo Stocker has been putting Dubarry’s Commodore XLT moccasin boat shoes through their paces for a few months now.
He believes they represent a happy medium between traditional moccasins and their sporty competitors.
Theo says: ‘Their key selling point is that they are, as the name suggests, extra light. In fact, they are roughly half the weight of my previous boat shoes.
‘Despite this, they still have a good degree of cushioning in the sole and are firm enough to give my foot some support, with the three-hole lacing keeping them secure on my foot.’

2 Chatham Sperrin boat shoes
Best winter boat shoes
Specifications : Sizes: 6 up | Colors: Dark Brown, Dark Tan | Material: Leather
Reasons to buy : Good all-round support | Sole spring poron insole – offers cushion | Breathability and anti-bacterial | Robust eyelets | Available in UK sizes 6-15 Reasons to avoid : Thick leather takes a while to wear in
The Sperrin Winter Boat Shoe is Chatham’s twist on its classic boat shoe, featuring three eyelet laces, contrast stitching detail, side laces and a heavy cleated sole for additional traction on slippery pontoons.
One of the key selling features is the sole spring poron insole, which promises to be cushioning, supportive, breathable and anti-bacterial.
Our tester wore them over several months and can vouch that they give their feet good all-round support, and the leather lacing kept them securely in place.
‘The eyelets are robust, which I have been impressed with as often this has been the first thing to go on previous pairs of boat shoes,’ they add.

3 Sebago Portland Lea Oiled boat shoes
Best summer boat shoes
Specifications : Sizes: 5.5 up | Colors: Brown / Dark Brown | Material: Leather
Reasons to buy : Hard wearing | Comfortable fit | Available in UK sizes 5.5-11.5 Reasons to avoid : Expensive
Made from oiled leather, which promises to make them strong, these boat shoes are available in a two-tone tan brown and black with contrast stitching, writes John Stickland . After wearing them regularly, they barely show any signs of distress or cracking, and the stitching is all still intact.
The oiled treatment means even after wearing them in the rain, and while sailing, where they got regularly drenched in spray, the leather cleaned up really well, with no marks or stains and was still soft.
The leather sock lining makes the shoes comfortable enough to wear with or without socks, even when new, and I experienced no rubbing. There is extra cushioning to protect your instep arch, giving good support. A full-grain leather collar also helps keep your foot firmly in the shoe when barefoot.

Sebago Portland Tumbled Deck shoe
4 Sebago Dockside Portland Tumbled boat shoes
Best classic boat shoes
Specifications : Sizes: 6 up | Colors: Brown | Material: Leather
Reasons to buy : Long-lasting | Variety of colour and material options | Hand-stitched | Non-marking anti-slip soles Reasons to avoid : Expensive | The insole only covers 2/3rds of the foot (leaving toes and ball of foot on leather)
This classic-style boat shoe from US shoe brand Sebago is probably of greatest interest to the active sailor.

7 Keen Women’s Solr Closed Toe Water Shoe
Best open foot deck shoe
Reasons to buy : Water-resistant upper; Recycled plastic webbing; Quick-drying lining Reasons to avoid : Premium price
Although many technical boat shoes are great at shedding water and are quick drying, there are times that a closed shoe just simply isn’t what you want.
However, flip-flops and open-toe sandals are a big injury risk thanks to the number of deck fittings on most yachts – stubbing your toes in a properly serious fashion is all too easy.
Keen is one of the very few manufacturers with a product that addresses this problem.
It has a water-resistant upper with recycled plastic used for the webbing, plus a comfortable quick-drying lining.
The non-marking rubber sole has deep drainage channels, plus siped zones to improve grip.

Summer is in full swing, and this year, it’s all about spending time on the open water. Whether you’re sipping an Aperol spritz in the Hamptons or soaking up the sun in the French Riviera, if you’re spending time on or near the water, boat shoes are a must.
What makes a good boat shoe, you ask? As a girl that grew up on the canals of Long Island, trust me when I say it’s not one size fits all. When traveling and exploring new places, it’s important to keep in mind what you’ll be doing, where you’ll be walking and what exactly you need from your shoe to keep you comfortable in all situations. If you know you’ll be walking a bit to and from the dock, a shoe with arch support is a must — but if you’re rocking your flats on a yacht, breathability and water resistance is key.
No matter what's on your nautical agenda, you've got plenty of options to choose from. From iconic Sperrys to more high-fashion Sebagos, this country club staple is back in style just in time for summer.
Looking to jump on the trend? We scoured the internet for the chicest and most versatile boat shoes around. Read on for some shoe inspiration for your summer adventures.

These are my favorite for days spent on the hull, whether I'm fishing or simply enjoying the sun.
In addition, Sperry’s stain- and water-resistant design also has rust-proof eyelets, making these shoes durable and built to last through all sorts of oceanside adventures. The lacing system is 360 degrees, offering a secure fit so your shoe will stay put, no matter if you’re walking miles to the ocean or wading through rocky waters. Best yet?

Best Lightweight
Sperry women’s lounge away 2 boat shoe.
The easy slip-on style has hidden elastic for a secure fit.
It can run slightly narrow, so you may need to size up if you have a wider foot.
The hardest part of every vacation is packing your bag without going over the weight limit. Though leather boat shoes are the most traditional, they are certainly not the most lightweight, and they can be a bit hot to wear in warmer climates, which can make traveling with them a pain.

Though these look more like a sneaker than a traditional boat shoe, the minimalist design easily complements any style — from resortwear to business casual attire. Even better, they’re machine washable to keep your shoes looking like new, even after a long day of sailing.
The Details: 5 to 11 | Eucalyptus tree fiber
Best Water-resistant
Sebago portland roughout boat shoes.
The moccasin toe design allows you to wear these to work, the beach, or out on the town for versatile travel needs.
The color is not as rich in person as it appears online.
The Sebago Portland Roughout Boat Shoe offers a happy medium between practicality and the classic boat shoe aesthetic. This timeless and nautical design is water-resistant thanks to the roughout leather, durable rubber soles, and lace-up closure, so no water can get inside. We also love that the leather sock lining offers an extra level of comfort, so you can easily wear them on deck or while wandering around a seaside town.
Tips for Buying Women's Boat Shoes
Prioritize shoes with great traction.
If you’re going boating, whether that’s cruising on a yacht or doing a bit of sailing, it’s important to buy shoes with traction to avoid any injuries or mishaps. Look for shoes with rubber or vinyl soles to help create traction and ensure you’ll remain safe. Rubber is likely your best bet, however, as its firm and grippy material can stick to the ground with ease and allows for liquid to disperse easily. Rubber also won’t leave any scuff marks on the boat, so it's a win-win.
Find the right balance between comfort and style
We all love a cute pair of shoes, but comfort is just as important, especially when traveling to new places. Depending on the activities you have planned, you’ll want to take a closer look at the materials to determine what is best for you. Heading out on the boat to explore a local fishing town? A canvas shoe with rubber soles will be the better choice. Meeting friends out at a fun, local restaurant? Leather will be your best friend (so long as it stretches over time).
Do keep in mind where and how often you wear your shoes. Wearing the same pair of shoes for multiple functions is a necessity when traveling (when aiming to pack light) but it can also affect the soles, if over worn. If you plan to do a lot of walking on cobblestone streets, you may want to invest in a separate pair of boat shoes for when you’re actually boating, so you don't wear away the rubber and risk reducing grip and traction.
Boat shoes are designed to be worn without socks, which is what gives it that nautical look and feel. Though if you are a sock lover, you absolutely can wear them with your boat shoes — truly, anything goes and it is all about preference, comfort, and style.
The break-in process is a necessary evil for most boat shoes, especially those made with leather or similarly stiff materials. The amount of time and process are different for each shoe, so be sure to consult the manufacturer’s recommended instructions to ensure you are breaking in your shoes as quickly and easily as possible.
If you have a big trip or event coming up, try wearing your new kicks around the house for a few days or even weeks to help them mold to your feet. When breaking in, you can also wear chunky socks with your leather shoes to help provide a comfy fit in no time.

Nothing Says “I’m Rich” Like This Summer Shoe Trend, But I've Found Pairs for Every Budget
Of all the flat-shoe trends we've seen this year—and trust me, there have been a lot—this is perhaps the one I least expected, even though I know it to be a classic. In a move that will appease quiet luxury fans, boat shoes are officially back for summer 2024 . Having crept into high-profile runway shows including Miu Miu's most recent spring/summer collection, the humble shoe has also seen an uptick in online interest over the past month, as noted by data analyst databutmakeitfashion .
![yacht dress shoes Influencer wears boat shoes.](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/oP5wUjA5SpxTvpNash2Uf3-320-80.jpg)
The shoe trend may have previously been reserved for yacht dwellers, thus cementing its luxury status, but now it's making its way onto city streets at pace, whispering wealth with every step. Styled by the fashion set with cotton, linen and denim, the controversial shoe is gearing up to be one of summer's most important footwear buys.
![yacht dress shoes Miu Miu runway.](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/syiGL5tritbrPqLU6o3GiU-320-80.jpg)
In a surprising styling showcase, Miu Miu's tan boat shoes were paired with leather skirts, draped trousers and micro-shorts throughout the show, attesting to the versatile nature of the rising shoe trend. Already an influencer favourite, the style set has taken to wearing them for casual outings or beach-side wanders.

With its boat-day connotations, the flat shoe has a distinctly summery edge. A fuller-coverage alternative to strappy sandals or ballet flats for the hotter months, the boat shoe's silhouette isn't a far cry from the loafers we've been styling for many seasons now, so you might find them easier to wear than you imagined.
