The Paul Smith Jeans Ripley Boat Shoes are available in three strikingly rich hues: green, maroon and brown. They're deep and subtle yet rich in detail. The 'Ripley' is a new boat shoe design and when it's worn it says nothing more but class and fashion-forward pizazz.
The shoes are made from bendable top grade leathers that give off a touch of casual wear. Aside from the deep and inviting shades, the fold-over laced fringe is accentuated and is the heart of these kicks as it provides them with a desirable vintage look. On top of that, the Paul Smith Jeans Ripley Boat Shoes are accentuated with a cross-stitch knotted detail at the heel.
