The traditional boat shoe toes a very fine line in the fashion world. Boat shoes (depending on the brand) are similar to casual loafers, without requiring as much outfit coordination. For instance, you’ll match your boat shoes to a casual outfit, such as jeans and a simple button-up short sleeve shirt, but you wouldn’t match boat shoes to an exhausted casual look, that is, the rolled-up sleeves, vest, undone tie type of look.
We consider them the bridge between casual and smart, giving a slightly more posh look to your jeans and t-shirt look. The simple, little things that you do are much more impactful than you think. Switch out your sneakers for a pair of these sailing shoes, and you’ll see a facelift to your outfit of choice.
