You can’t escape the Sperry; not on this list. Sperry kicks some serious ass in this department, and we’re not afraid to say it. Much like their 3-Eye model, the 2-Eye comes with rust-proof eyelets to run your laces through, while sticking to that non-marking rubber outsole that we love them for. On top of that, they went the extra mile with comfort, giving you a dual-density padding along the bottom. This works for immediate comfort, and some support throughout the day to cut down on fatigue. Last but not least, the shock-absorbing EVA heel adds so much to these moccasins, whether you choose our favorite (tan) or the other four styles, you’re sure to fall in love with Sperry one way or another.
Material - Leather and canvas are your go-to construction here, but other materials will fall into line. Our editors are serious fans of leather, especially due to how easy they are to maintain.
A: They’re in a very fine line in the male 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.
These are pretty straightforward shoes, but there are a few things to keep in mind when it comes time to buy. We’ve broken down the do’s, the don’ts, and the key features you should be looking for in your next pair of boat shoes.

If your hosts have hinted at a swim during the boat party, be sure to take along a cute swimsuit. It’s so much easier to arrive with it on, under a pair of shorts. Don’t forget to tuck a pair of panties into your bag for when you dry off. more
The sun can get pretty strong out there on the water so to protect your skin and reduce the chance of the sun bleaching out your hair, take along a snug sunhat that won’t blow away.
There’s no place for heels on a boat so make sure you wear flats. Boat shoes or sneakers are ideal but if you want to wear sandals, then just make sure they have light-colored soles. Black soles are taboo since they scuff the boat deck. here

I also wear a waterproof boot designed for fishing. This is a great choice when fishing offshore or on days or on boats that there may be water in the cockpit. Many Captains insist on wearing a low waterproof boot year round. Huk makes a great pair called the Rogue. [links]
These guys thought of everything. Here is a video explaining all the performance better than I can: [links]
1. A wide heel. Shoes with a wide heel will help you maintain your balance far more than a narrow heel. We sometimes fish on days that are slick calm, but more often than not, the boat is rocking and rolling and balance is at a premium. more
Thanks so much for the email this morning.
I have found all of these things in a new shoe from HUK. The HUK Attack shoe is the best fishing shoe I have found. They have everything that I am looking for and are comfortable for standing all day. I have never made a mark on any boat with these shoes. here
If you are looking for the best boat shoe or fishing shoes, it is my opinion that these are the ones. If you prefer a more casual option they also make another style that I also like a lot called the Brewster. here
Overall, it’s a good pair of shoes. These are designed for boating and all sorts of watersports, but I wouldn’t suggest using them for any outdoor activities! more
