Canoe-Inspired Shoes

The Low Classic Boat Shoes Are Mini Rafts for Your Feet

The Low Classic Boat Shoes debuted during Seoul Fashion Week and have hit the ground running. The sliders appear as if to be mini rafts for your feet. When your foot is in the slider, it sits comfortably within the concave mold. The outer edges are rolled, giving it a boat-inspired look. Each shoe sits on a two inch platform which is slimmer than the rolled edges.

This South Korean brand is known for its innovative minimalist design features — which is executed exquisitely with the Low Classic Boat Shoes. These canoe-like shoes come in black, beige and baby blue. Take these shoes out during the rain and watch how your fleet glide seamlessly over the puddles. This will let your new sliders truly show you their boat-like features.
