Weekend Warrior
The always-stylish boat shoe is a comfortable way to bring a touch of refinement to your more laid-back weekend looks. The 360° Lacing System™ and Wave-Siping™ outsoles make them versatile and practical, while the classic moccasin-stitched upper only gets better the more you wear it.
"As the mom of a skateboarder, I often spend hours at skateparks in different cities. My weekend style is all about street-style layers, ready for anything—whether it’s sitting for hours or jumping in on the fun. I love pairing warm coats with shorts or layers so I’m sure to be extra prepared- but also looking cute and maintaining a New York style that I’ve worn basically since I was little and playing in these NY streets."

Downtown Nights
The iconic boat shoe can be dressed up with ease, bringing a touch of effortless elegance to your evening looks, whether it’s date night or you’re meeting up with friends for drinks. Luxe leather and premium finishings ensure the Authentic Original never looks out of place – just like you.
"I often feel like I have to switch between different personas to match the fashion environment I'm working in on any given day. At heart, though, I'm such a tomboy—except when I go out at night. Then, I enjoy playing the part of the girl who pairs dressy skirts with something a bit more edgy, like sheer socks, a touch of leather, and fun jewelry. And just like that, I’m ready to go!"

Lunch Dates
On the other side of the coin, the boat shoe is a great way to bring a polished touch to your more casual looks. Anda leans into the silhouette’s preppiness by pairing it with corduroy pants and Oxford shirt, to bring an elevated, but effortless look to midday lunches and casual get-togethers.
"Whether I’m traveling for work or meeting a friend for lunch, my go-to style has a New York 70’s vibe. Growing up in a city with such rich fashion culture, it naturally becomes part of you. From collegiate prep looks to corduroy suits with layers, or vintage bell-bottom jeans with an old tee, I always incorporate these elements into casual events. Here, I’ve layered a brown corduroy suit with a pop of color, added a vintage taxi-style hat, a fun striped sock, and finished the look with my favorite Sperrys."
