I never really imagined the combination of deck shoes and boots working. But evidently the Vane & Sebago 2010 Spring/Summer collection did, as these styles are featured in it.
Not only are these totally unconventional kicks a focus point, a variety of other leather-laden deck shoes are also noted. There are several colorways, from black to the all-encompassing taupe. These are sure to look out of place on both the boat and in everyday life.
