For a shoe that can take on a mountain as well as the deck of a boat, without slipping up or looking out of place, this Boat Shoe from Yuketen is the hybrid option for you.
Inspired by the rugged style of Maine fisherman in the 50s and 60s, this boat shoe features Horween’s full-grain resistant nubuck leather, and is hand-cut, hand-lasted, and hand-stitched in their bespoke moccasin factory in Maine. So, basically the only way you’ll get a more faithful moccasin is with a time machine.
Fitted with an eye-catching Italian-made Cortina lug sole, walk hard and walk with confidence, those small jagged rocks and twigs don’t stand a chance. And just to remind us that cool is nothing without comfort, they have arch-supported leather insoles and a single collar seam to prevent blistering, both essential considering you won’t be taking these off, ever.
Available for $575 from Stag Provisions
