Dockside Shoes

You probably have heard of dockside shoes called by some other names such as boat shoes or top-siders. This type of shoe is similar in design to the classic loafer, with a few extra features and a different purpose. Loafers are slip on shoes for men and women worn for the purposes of recreation and relaxation. They are often made from fabric materials like canvas but you can sometimes find them crafted from leather. While loafers are perfect for grassy areas and suburban shopping centers they are not made for boating. This is the difference between loafers and boat shoes.


Boat shoes are made by top manufacturers like Sperry and Dexter. Most often crafted from water and stain resistant treated leather, these shoes are made with non-slip rubber soles and durable rustproof eyelets. They are perfect for boating or just hanging out on the dock, hence their name. You will find a good pair of boat shoes don't come cheap but they are worth the money because of the comfort and performance they provide. The two aforementioned companies are leaders in the industry and their shoes can be seen on civilians, sailors and even professional boating athletes.

There are other brands of boat and top-sider shoes available also. Sebago makes several styles of boat shoe which can be purchased from a variety of specialty shoe stores and even online. Dexter and Sperry shoes can also be bought online and in stores. When buying boat shoes it is best to try them on, because you want to ensure a perfect fit. Some manufacturers shoes run true to size while others run bigger or smaller. Any associate at a shoe store can professionally measure your foot to determine your perfect size.

You will love the durable performance and comfort you get with a good pair of dockside shoes. Whether you're kicking back by the shore, fishing on the dock or speeding across the water on a boat your feet will feel fantastic. Not only that, but these type of shoes are more fashionable than they sound. You can easily pull off a preppy nautical ensemble with a trendy pair of leather boat shoes or top-siders. These days, shoes can give you the best of both worlds -- the performance you need and the fashion you want.
