I have a sort of love/hate view of boat shoes. I appreciate their ease and they are perhaps a more 'dressy' alternative to a sandal but I feel that they are overdone. Washed out if you will (nautical pun intended). Shoe designers of the world must share my view of this classic and they have responded by updating the boat shoe in different colors and textures. In lu of traditional tan try white cotton, orange, perforated leather and more athletic looking options. In this way they have been given a less 'preppy' attitude.
Try, for instance, the CLAE Romare Lo
