Boat Shoes, MenThe first boat shoe was created in 1935 by Paul Sperry, he sought to construct a shoe that would grip the deck of a boat without leaving scuff marks. One day his cocker spaniel ran across the ice without slipping and Sperry got an idea. He designed the boat shoe with an outsole that copies his dog’s paw, in order to achieve the amazing traction man’s best friend displayed, as well has preventing scuff marks on floors. Although the boat shoe was intended to be worn by sailors, they have also become a fashion shoe in America, England and France. HealthyShoeStore.com carries Sebago, a New England shoe brand that is nautically-inspired and classically designed.
