Sperry® x J.Crew Authentic Original unisex two-eye boat shoes in roughout suede

Description

Our limited-edition spin on Sperry's original boat shoe. In 1935, avid sailor Paul Sperry created the world's first nonslip deck shoe, taking inspiration from his dog Prince's ability to stay surefooted on slippery terrain. Since then, Sperrys have been worn by icons including JFK and Paul Newman—and seen everywhere from naval ships to tennis courts to the pages of <i>The Official Preppy Handbook</i>. Our new exclusive collaboration revives the Authentic Original two-eye boat shoe with details taken from a vintage find. Everything from the roughout suede uppers to the stitching to the retro branding on the insole and heel is carefully chosen to be as close to the original as possible—with the comfort and durability you'd expect from the legendary American brand. Please note that sizes listed are men's. Please subtract 1.5 from your normal size for the best fit. For example, a women's size 8.5 is a men's size 7. Leather upper. Rubber sole. Imported.
