Without a doubt, Sperry Topsiders represent an American tradition in footwear. Their Connecticut originator, Paul Sperry, introduced the brand in 1935 as boating shoes with patented soles sporting wavy grooves to provide the necessary traction for safely enjoying being around the ocean’s coastal terrain. From that time forward, Topsiders have grown to become one of the most popular shoes for men and women alike, their comfort and good looks coupling with uncompromised quality to make them a “go to” shoe for much more than boating.

For relaxing with family and friends or participating in recreational activities, these are the shoes often chosen for wear with khaki and chino slacks, shorts, skirts and polo shirts or sweaters. They embody casual chic, and the fact that they are also a practical choice for the boating and seaside activities for which they were initially designed give them a terrific double edged usage, regardless of season.

Perhaps in response to their ongoing popularity, they have also emerged with more and more variation in material and color selection, though their recognizable moccasin styling, with hand-sewn stitching and leather-laced eyelets ending with a tied bow, has remained intact. Indeed, whether offered in canvas, leather suede, or pony hair, with or without wool trim, they are readily identifiable. Moreover, while there are likely to be imitations and copies of anything this traditionally enduring, it is the highest quality craftsmanship that continues to set these boat shoes apart.

Not only stain and water resistant, they have been engineered with a shock absorbing heel cup for added comfort. Their rubber outsole with its woven pattern is non-marking and provides the ultimate in both dry and wet traction. Furthermore, in a nod to style and modern trends in men’s fashion as well as women’s, the variety of available colors has increased. Besides the standard brown, black, white, blue and gray that early-on characterized the brand, Sperry Topsiders now come in none less than tan, green, orange, yellow and red, with glammed up metallic and snakeskin looks added for the ladies. With sizes from 7-16 available for men and 5-12 for women, there is no doubt that just about everyone can enjoy wearing these comfortable shoes, seaside or not.
